View Full Version : Things that piss you off

I feel like ranting right now...feel free to join in. Right now, there are 2 things that are really pissing me off.
1. The "Atkins diet". Sounds smart...eat a lot of fat and protein, and lose weight. As far as I know, it's just one crackpot doctor who made up this diet in the 70's, and now it's popular again. Does it work? The ---- if I know. What I know does work is EXCERCISE. If people would get off their lazy asses and workout, they wouldn't be fat. ----, it's not that hard, get off the ----ing couch, don't eat ----ing McDonald's every day, and drink juice instead of soda (pop).
2. Friggin disposable cleaning products. Swiffer, and it's clones. I'm not environmentally concious, but I guess I care somewhat because the commericals for these products make me pissed off. Let's just wipe the floor, and throw it out! Yea! More garbage! Just what the world needs! You know, cause it's so hard to use a MOP. I keep seeing more and more of these disposable products. Sure, not everything can be reused (condoms, toilet paper, etc), but the line has to be drawn somewhere...----.
That's all. I just needed to vent. Someone else join in...

Atkins diet really does work, friend of mine weighed 350 pounds, and went on the diet, and now weighs only 150.
And i agree with the swiffer cfrap.

I just dumb drivers. Especially 85 year old f----in drivers. There is only 3 feet between me and the the car is front and some idiotic 85 year blind as my middle finger tries to get right in the middle. And of course if I hit him from the damn back it's my damn fault!

1. My Mom... She's yelling at me about something right now. I'm just nodding my head and saying "yeah, ok, uh huh".
2. The fact that I'm not moving out for college yet... 7 more months :).

Yeah you bet Atkins works, if you can stick to the plan. No bread during the entire diet, and no veggies for the firsat two weeks. I couldnt do it because everything I eat has either bread in it or with it.
So I figured it would be easier to simply use water pills as a diet method. I am losing about a pound a day in water (ok, so I got a little on the chubby side...LOL). However, fat holds water. If there is not enough water, your body dissolves the leftover fat. Ok, that part is working great, fine, dandy. What I was unaware of, was the side effects. I didnt know I would have to pee a gallon 10 times night, but hey, that's getting rid of my weight fast, although I am almost peed out, heh. The worst side effect, I need to eat bananas because my potassum levels plummeted....and when that happens, your muscles cramp up. I woke up this morning stretching...cramped both sides of my back, both outer legs, my right arm, and hurt like hell. Getting dressed, I squated down to put on a boot, and got a ball cramp on the right side of my stomach, you could feel it sticking out, and felt like I had just been shot there with a shotgun. Later in the day today, I laid down in bed to rest after work, strecthed a yawn stretch, got a cramp on the right side of my chest which when straight thru my lung area into my back, I could hardly breath.
Hmm, that Atkins diet is really starting to look good now. The pills I am taking are Triamterene. They hurt if you take more than one per day :P

When people say "It works", I assume you mean it enables you to lose weight. If that's all you want, sure, go for it. But I don't see how it could be healthy. That's my problem with crazy diets like this...they just can't be healthy. I'm no doctor, I don't know, I just thought that in order to be healthy, you have to follow the x servings a day chart. And getting excercise helps too...The problem is, no one cares about health, just how they look. This is why I'm pissed off about the Atkins diet.

Speaking on diets, I am on one right now. I aint fat, just gotta get rid of the keg. I figure, the less I eat, and more I excersise the thinner I get. After one week I am noticing changes. The other thing is healthy food is yum. I don't eat take out, lollies, I only drink water. Its Kalibers super diet!!
Now for -----ing:
1) THE ----ING FRENCH!!! I hate the french, and anything that is french.
2) PT Cruisers and the Audi TT, ugg, I am gonna key these cars next time I see them.
3) Big Brother, NO we do not want a fourth ----ing season here in australia, no one cares. Something more educational like Seinfield should be on.
4) The bands Good Charlotte and Avril Lavigne! Need I say anymore.
and.... last but not least:
5) Nikki Webster. She is a little tight --- ----- who thinks everyone loves her. just do a search on google if you have no idea what I am talking about.
Phew, that was good :)

I started my diet three weeks ago.
It consists of a daily 20 mile bike ride and weight training every other day.
I eat whatever the hell I want to.

Erm, the Atkins diet works by changing how your body burns energy. Fat is only stored energy. Natures way is like the camel is with water. Your body takes energy from intake, and stores the rest. Most of us eat more than our body uses, hence much of it is stored as fat. The Atkins diet makes your body change it's energy usage so it uses "stored" energy.
As for excersize, aerobics are great for burning fat. Weights...not so great. Take the abs for example. Doing crunches or situps dont burn the fat off your spare tire, it makes your ab muscles bigger, thus, you get a bigger stomach. All you accomplish is inflating that spare tire (granted, it's a concrete tire LOL). Bike riding is good for burning fat, but at the same time you are building muscles off balance. Your lower body and lungs will be in great shape, but your arms, chest, and tummy arent being built up....although you are burning fat off them.
One of the things I hate is the fact that "healthy" food is like 3x the price of "unhealthy" foods. If they were able to reverse that.....we'd probably all be in good shape without having to work hard at it. Of course, throwing away all your remote controls would help too :P

Well...to eat healthy doesn't mean you have to buy nutritional supplement bars. It's simple things like snacking on an apple instead of a chocolate bar. Drinking juice instead of pop. And making a home cooked meal like pasta, instead of having a double whopper with fries.
Back to the Atkins, I haven't read anything about it. It just seems that if 99% of nutrionalists reccomend eating balanced meals, I don't see how the 1% could be correct. And like I said, some people think dieting is an alternative to excercise. That's why I'm pissed...people are just too lazy, and don't want to admit it.

Survivor pisses me off
video games piss me off
American Idol pisses me of
People who vehemently voice thier flawed opinions for the sole purpose of pissing me of piss me off.
yuppies in SUVs who drink frappuccino from starbucks and go to yoga and pilates classes and who practice feng shui and home decorating piss me off.
mainstream media piss me off, as does losing my keys and running out of groceries.
people who talk on cell phones other than to call 911 piss me off, especially in restaurants or bathrooms.
people who suck up to teachers piss me off, and finally that greasy kid who works at the 7-11 near my house pisses me off.
edit:
"it's ok, I had subway for lunch" pisses me off, as does all this "Atkins Friendly bull----""
If I'm going to go on a diet it's going to involve broccoli, chicken breasts, tuna sandwiches and orange juice, not rump roast and gravy (but no bread or veggies)
that one chick with bad hair on Much Music pisses me off to the point of not watching TV for a week (unless George reads the news right after, then it's all good)
ozzy osbourne pisses me off, and so does his speech impediment and his ----- daughter.
right now everything pisses me off unless I say otherwise.
edit:
people who base their hatred for the french on anything other than hairy pits and berets piss me off.

People on their diets :rolleyes: . My regular eating habits is what youd probabaly call a diet. I seem to be the only person on the planet that can eat just one row of chocolate and stop there :P
1. Guys (and girls, I presume there are some) with that little...THING on their eyebrows!! Its usually on the right eyebrow and its like...part of the eyebrow seperate. IT ANNOYS ME SO MUCH! I know, not reasonable...but...argh!
2. When people say "beauty is only skin deep". How much deeper do you want it? Your date wont be looking into your splein mechanics, I assure you.
3. When my hair isnt looking perfect :angry2:
4. My aunty. I cannot begin to tell you why. Seriously, even Oprah Winfrey would want to stab her...
5. Theres never any good shows on at 2 AM in the morning. Only MAD TV, which is only funny when they have skits featuring Oprah :devious2: :classic2: .
6. When video-hits doesnt show the video clips I want to see. :devious2: ITS A CONSPIRACY!!

Yes, the nice beaches of Calgary...
In fact, after posting that yesterday, I set up my punching bag, and beat the hell out of it. I quit once the bag fell off the hook. Also, being in the basement, and the 80 lb bag being attached right at the center of a large beam, I was worried about breaking the damn house. Surprisingly, I didn't even hurt myself. I have those wrist wrap things, and gloves, so I didn't break my wrist. Just thought I'd share that, good way to ease frustration, beat the hell out of something.
I like gayo's list. I hate cell phones as well. Well, they have their uses, like in an emergency situation, and if you are out of the office lots, and need to be available for easy contact. And if someone is such a socialite that they are talking on it all the time, so be it. But if the sole reason you carry it around with you is to play games, in colour, and listen to all the ringtones you have downloaded on it, and talk about the phone you plan on buying, because it has more colour, and more space for ringtones, and HIGHER QUALITY ringtones. ---- cellphones.
Oh, and gayo mentioned the media. I hate the media. They do everything half assed, and the top story on every friggin news is Britney Spears, and her wedding. ----, I used to think she was attractive (well, given the chance, I'd still probably ---- her), but any appeal is gone. She is an annoying, no talent, stupid ho.

Yes! I completely agree. Cell phones are good for emergencies and business, but regular people don't need them.
