The Frustration Thread

[555-04Q2]

Ok, so often threads are going down the toilet with members getting personal and off topic.

So this thread is meant for you to post your frustrations in instead. No personal attacks on other forum members, no vulgar language, just a place for your fingers to vent off that your mind is thinking in the heat of the moment.

I'll start it off...

I hate the "F" button on my keyboard. Why is it where it is? It should be where the "K" button is!
And why am I limited to 3 smileys in my posts when I want to use 500000056325327?

:p : :D

I am frustrated that I can't sleep.

I am frustrated doctors give me crappy pills that don't work and refuse to prescribe something new for 4 months.
It also helps that the pills aren't subsidized.

I'm frustrated that News Corp which accounts for 70% of newspaper circulations in this country, owns half of Foxtel and via Sky News ran the three leaders debates, basically is dictating to the Australian public how they should vote.

I can get you some pills bro!

[ShiftingGears]

It actually makes things worse, much worse.

Agreed, I cannot sleep in once I have had booze.

[Tazio]

I can sleep; it's just that it does not give me restful sleep due to the glutamine rebound. It also makes me wake up anxious. If insomnia is a serious problem I have two pieces of advice; get a sleep coach; only take sleep medication 3 times a week. Unless it is a heavy sedative that will make you dim witted, and bring on early dementia sleep medications don't work if you take them every night. Pick the nights that you really need sleep. You can go through the day on much less than you think. I know it's frustrating.

I am frustrated, when I am a bit lazy and don't get some things done immediately I could do - instead postpone them till "unknown future". :o

Oh, and I am frustrated, when people disappear!

I load 15€ into my Apple-ID, to purchase an app on the ipad

"As this is your first purchase on this device" (not true!) "you need to confirm your account"

I enter my ID and password

"As this is your bla bla, you need to answer some security questions"

"What model was your first car" -> I tried all variants
"Where did you first go to the beach" -> whatever

-> FAIL
"after three fails, your ID will be deactivated"

I try and purchase it on the PC instead -> "As this is your bla bla, you need to answer some security questions" -> FAIL

I confirm the account via email and try again -> FAIL

I enter my ID to reset the security questions -> you have to answer the security questions to be able to reset the security questions :mad:

Finally I try calling the service desk -> closed til Monday


I'm beginning to hate Apple with a passion again :vader:

[Jag_Warrior]

I'm mildly frustrated that the "smart TV" that I bought last Christmas really isn't smart at all. It's just as dumb as the 12 or 13 year old set that it replaced. It just has a much better picture. So that way, I can count the fever blisters on Paris Hilton's face when she doesn't take her herpes meds or I can accurately estimate how many inches of makeup is packed onto Kim Kardashian's face. But the TV itself is NOT smart. The only thing that makes it somewhat smart has nothing to do with the set, but it is the TiVo unit hooked up to it... and it's not all that smart either. I have to load keywords in it or set up season passes to get it to record shows that I might like. And since DirecTV won't let us have the really good, increasingly smart TiVo units, we're forced to be content with the less capable, "dumb" TiVos. The way I see it, a TV that just has a few built-in apps, 3D and HD, a sleep timer and the ability to adjust the sound down when commercials come on (and whatever other features this thing has) is not smart. And this is a top of the line set. So the rest are just as dumb as this thing. A dumb set that displays dumb programming. Yeah, that's a source of frustration.

Also, I don't see anything "smart" about smartphones... not yet anyway. Most won't do anything that I can't do by combining my 3-4 year old iPod Touch and my 10 year old "dumb phone". Big whoop!

And my guess is, these so called "smart watches" that will soon be coming out won't be (truly) smart either. Just more gadgets that will do very little on their own and can't learn... which is my definition of smart.

I have had a case of tendonitis in the heel and foot arch for a few weeks, which has stopped me playing football which is really pissing me off.

I was taking Ibuprofen and had a reaction to them, so changed tablets. Now I have a tooth infection which has stopped me taking my medication, so now my foot is getting worse again.

Bloody life.

You can go through the day on much less than you think. I know it's frustrating.

Unless I've had a lot to drink, I won't be able to fall asleep at all.

I'll cut down on the meds, they only worked for the first 10 days so you're probably right. But that was the best sleep I've had in years.
The problem isn't that I can't get through the day, I can. The problem is that sleeping 2-4 hours a night isn't manageable. I feel and look like terrible, I have no concentration. I've been asked more than once if I were high, understandably so.

And what exactly is a sleep coach?

[Tazio]

And what exactly is a sleep coach?



A Behavioral Sleep Medicine Specialist is one with specialized training and expertise in sleep medicine, behavioral health and methods of behavior change. As such, the BSM specialist has expertise in differential diagnosis of sleep and health (psychological and physiological) conditions. The BSM specialist utilizes this expertise along with expertise in behavior change to develop evidence-based treatment plans for those with sleep disorders and co-existing health conditions.
Or more simply it is a PhD, or MD that applies cognitive behavioral therapy to insomnia, and its underlying causes (which may be genetic). You may have to deal with it on an ongoing basis, but take action, if not treated it generally gets worse as you get older.
It's really frustrating bro!

I find it frustrating that Shakira's bodyguards are so professional. All I ask for is one of them to make one mistake and my basement sound-proofing hasn't been a waste of time!

[gadjo_dilo]

Hate this word. I've noticed that in my country ''she's a frustrated'' is the label that vulgar uneducated girls use to apply on the girls that make them feel their inferiority. They delude themselves by thinking that in fact they are the happy perfect ones and the others are simply envious. Ironically they can't even define frustration.
Now you understand why I can't express my frustrations. It would be like I agree with such low points of view.

I don't know if they sell herbal medicines where you live, but you might try motherwort (herba leonuris). It does the business. Perfectly safe and no side effects.

Does anyone else get frustrated with waiting for dumb woman drivers to realise the traffic lights have turned green while they do their make-up in their rear view mirrors :angrymaledriver:

[SGWilko]

Mostly, being an amateur misogynist, I am frustrated by folk on the pavement who aim for you, despite every attempt you make - having planned the best path several steps in advance - to avoid them.

I MEAN %$*! OFF ALREADY!

Does anyone else get frustrated with waiting for dumb woman drivers to realise the traffic lights have turned green while they do their make-up in their rear view mirrors :angrymaledriver:

No, this falls under the category of 'acceptable behavior' and just makes me smile knowingly, that, actually, they cannot multitask!

I get really frustrated with people who tap away on their phones in crowded places and don't friggin' look where they're going as if it is all the other people's responsibility to get out of their paths. :hmph:

I can agree with that one for sure. The other day biking I almost took someone out on a path as the guy never realized I was approaching and was on the phone with headphones. The path was level with nothing blocking our sight, so I had seen him from easily 70-80 yards away.

I went to a restaurant in my building and ate dinner waiting for the storm to stop. It did around nine and thanks to the fenders on the bike I got home nice and dry.

People doing 38 on a road were the speed limit is 50 or 60.

I can solve this in an instant, however.

All community service and unemployed must man, 24 hours a day, marshalls posts every 400 metres and wave blue flags at any car not sticking to the speed limit of the road.

After passing two marshalls posts without responding, a black flag should be waved.

Whereupon, the driver of the vehicle must stop at the road side and await summary execution.

[Parabolica]

Companies and Businesses who have a random, irrelevant single word name really get my goat.

It's ok-ish for a Nightclub to have a surreal, single word name, and an energy drink.

But it is not ok for a Removals Firm to be called Oblong.

Or an Estate Agent to be called Wham.

Or a Haulage company to be called Lozenge.

It's pretentious, trendy arse-bollocks.

Do you actually like the new car smell or does the fading away just mean your car isn't brand new anymore. If you like the new car smell.
idea: Develop a sprayable version of the toxic (to some) gassing off odours of new components, polishes and materials. Another option would be to drive the new cars of chemical sensitive owners for a few weeks until the 'new car smell' dissipates. I'd pay someone to do that. They'd have to do the driving when traffic volumes were at lowest, probably early am. :)

Double standards frustrate me. Ignorance frustrates me. Lying frustrates me.

Harassment?! You sir are the one that is doing the harassing. You may get the benefit when it comes to having someone get the heave-ho because of your quantity but not necessarily quality of your posts.
You were asked to stop but failed to do so. You have once more posted an insulting comment to which I really don't care. However, you are the one that said you would ignore me. So why don't you and give the others a break. Me; I care little of what you write about me. To assuage the necessity to have the forum monitors having to watch threads for this type of garbage why don't you PM me. I'll be happy to engage.
If you find me so engaging, why not keep me on ignore as you stated you were doing. But, so many posts later.........

[555-04Q2]

But, so many posts later.........

.......you are still going for it. You are the one that continued with your post earlier about the numbers with a letter member, you were referring to me, numbnuts. I have not seen one, not one positive post from you on this forum, ever. You disagree with everyone on this forum all the time. You are obviously an unhappy little man, not our fault.

Now go do something useful like drowning yourself in the bucket of pity your lug around. This IS my final reply to your childish, grumpy, unhappy, negative, uninformed, biased, protagonistic, I hate the world and everyone in it posting.

Yesss that is frustrating. I told a kid off on a train recently for playing music on his phone out loud. I asked him if he had any ear phones to which he said no. I then said would he mind turning it off to which he ignored me, so I briefly started playing music on my own phone and pointed out how annoying it was. He moved to a different carriage. It seems to be a replacement for the idiots who used to play loud music out of their cars with the 'look at me' mentality. It certainly gets attention, but not always the effect they desire.

Things that annoy me that come to mind:
Noisy neighbours
Drivers who deliberately use another lane to the one they need to cut people up
Clients who change their mind at the last minute and expect things done within the previous agreed time frame.
People who park in Parent and Baby spaces when they clearly don't have children themselves.
Cliff Richard
Checkouts empty during busy periods and staff chatting nearby
People who update Facebook with the most boring of updates.
Cold callers on my doorstep
Trick or treaters (all this week)
A TV signal that becomes interupted
Benefit fraudsters in my town who seem to have a better lifestyle than I do!

There must be many, many more but these spring to mind this morning. :)

Out of around 90 people on my Facebook, there is only two I have had to hide from my newsfeed and I've done that because I have regular contact with them and deleting would be awkward. There is the thing where I only accept people I wish to be in touch with too. I think it all depends how it is used and of course how interesting the people are that you know. :)

But, so many posts later.........

.......you are still going for it. You are the one that continued with your post earlier about the numbers with a letter member, you were referring to me, numbnuts. I have not seen one, not one positive post from you on this forum, ever. You disagree with everyone on this forum all the time. You are obviously an unhappy little man, not our fault.

Now go do something useful like drowning yourself in the bucket of pity your lug around. This IS my final reply to your childish, grumpy, unhappy, negative, uninformed, biased, protagonistic, I hate the world and everyone in it posting.

Totsiens meneer! Lekker bly jou fokken doos :wave:
Ah, the one that states he is ignoring a member and then slams that same member for many things. I feel that you 555-04Q2 lose the point of your own statements. When you make a very definite remark that you are going to apply an action, such as ignoring a member, in this case me, then whatever I say in response should not apply. It seems I have tweaked some part of your insecurity. I thought you South Africans were made of sterner stuff than resorting to name calling which is really childish. When you want to ignore me and use a plethora of words to "describe me" try using just one word instead of the same insult contained in the meaning of another word.
As for your profane and ignorant attempt using another language ( second to last word of his post)the word is not only evident and is grounds for being barred on this particular forum but shows that there is evidence that one is not of the fortitude they claim ,so they hide behind another language. All of this frustrates me 555-04q2.(the topic)Lower case use of Q is deliberate. Indicative of the contempt held for someone who makes remarks directly wishing for some the demise of someone, although done so badly. Take note 555-04q2, I have lost four family members in the past five years to suicide. Three in their twenties. Twins in one family at medical school in London, a nephew in Memphis studying architecture. My wife found her own sister hanging in a closet. Dead for four days. The mother of my nephew. So, when you grow up, take note that of what you are printing. Wish death on someone who has those deaths none of which is attributable to narcotics or alcohol but the pressures of student life and loss of loved ones. In my case a child. PM me and I will furnish all the information.
It amazes me to no end that the moderators of the forum used to ban people for profanity disguised so as to allow one to draw their own conclusion. In two threads I have seen the words used in their entirety three times including your attempt above.Afrikaans is the language. Been to the Lions tests many times during tours and it was easy to pick up the profanity laced ignorance of many in the crowd. Not typical of in the more sophisticated chants of other countries.

I personally have written many positive posts on various thread. That they do not suit your world view is not my fault.

Take it to PM guys. I don't want to read this tripe, it's frustrating.. Or is that the point?

I'm frustrated reading rubbish on this thread lol :p

[donKey jote]

I reckon the point of this thread is that only seemingly frustrated people post on it :andrea:

erm oops :erm: :dork: :p

Even if I didn't agree, I'm frustrated that I don't have the time or motivation to rant on for a couple paragraphs about how you are ignorant and I don't care what you say. If this keeps up I will never have the ability to become an internet troll. Oh wait, that's a title I never desired.

Now I'm frustrated that I wasted time responding to something that deals with trolling. :mad:

[Spafranco]

Yeah Spafranco, lighten up and listen to the advice :)

It annoys the hell out of me when people play crappy music on their cell phones when other people (OK ME) are trying to have lunch in the sun.

Usually the music is absolute crap and the sound that comes out of those bloody cell phones sounds awful anyway. If you need to listen to your crappy rap and bepop rubbish at least have the common courtesy to put some headphones on! :angryfire :angryfire
Yesss that is frustrating. I told a kid off on a train recently for playing music on his phone out loud. I asked him if he had any ear phones to which he said no. I then said would he mind turning it off to which he ignored me, so I briefly started playing music on my own phone and pointed out how annoying it was. He moved to a different carriage. It seems to be a replacement for the idiots who used to play loud music out of their cars with the 'look at me' mentality. It certainly gets attention, but not always the effect they desire.

Things that annoy me that come to mind:
Noisy neighbours
Drivers who deliberately use another lane to the one they need to cut people up
Clients who change their mind at the last minute and expect things done within the previous agreed time frame.
People who park in Parent and Baby spaces when they clearly don't have children themselves.
Cliff Richard
Checkouts empty during busy periods and staff chatting nearby
People who update Facebook with the most boring of updates.
Cold callers on my doorstep
Trick or treaters (all this week)
A TV signal that becomes interupted
Benefit fraudsters in my town who seem to have a better lifestyle than I do!

There must be many, many more but these spring to mind this morning. :)
So Henner, you deem me as the person that is creating the issues? Me alone?To say I am surprised would be an understatement considering the abuse contained in posts directed at me.

CHILDREN... demanding sweets.

But I'm at work... and I don't even see why we should be even importing this day. The only reason it's now a thing in Australia is because Woolworths and Coles have found yet another excuse to sell things using pester power.

BTW, points to my boss on this:

Trick or treat.
Trick please.
No, you're supposed to give us candy.
You gave me a choice. rick or treat. I'm not going to give you a treat, so you have to do a trick.
You're weird.

No kiddiewinks, you're ignorant. You are supposed to threaten to do something, that's what "Trick or Treat" means. If you can't be bothered to learn this, then we're not going to be bothered to give you anything... okay so we weren't going to in the first place but now its moreso.

Also, to the church in Mosman who wants to provide a "non-evil" sort of Halloween, calling it "Harvest Festival" in Australia WHEN IT'S SPRING makes no sense at all.

Amen to this Rollo!

I was abused by a charming little sod dressed as a horrible child (or a horrible child dressed like a little sod, cant quite remeber) for giving him a pickled onion when he knocked at the door. Now I ask you, when you have a cheese sandwich, is a pickled onion not the best treat you can add to it to make it a wee bit more special? Ungrateful little bas%$#d

"Wow its 7 o'clock"

This is an example of a facebook post who a non motorsport loving friend of mine posted yesterday. :rolleyes:

[henners88]

Oh my God, yes trick or treaters!

I don't mind the little tots coming round with their parents as its really an activity for the little ones IMO. Unfortunately all this week I have had knocks at the door and its quite rare its been anyone other than 16 to 20 year olds. One group last night were around the late teens and weren't even dressed up. They just had their hoods pulled up and said trick or treat. I said trick and they hadn't thought of any tricks to play. I just said sorry guys I think you're all a bit old for all this and watched them leave. I kept an eye out in case they came back and nicked our plants etc lol. Very frustrating.

My wife's cousin who is 19 said this yesterday:


'Can't believe what happened today!'

People naturally respond with, what's up babe? or please tell us.....
Her response:

'Can't talk about it on here...'

Then why say it then!!!!!!!!!! She isn't usually that annoying but just an example of a pointless infuriatingly frustrating post I read. :)

I can't stand facebook, hence, I don't go on it. Too many "friends" that you haven't spoken to for ages and you don't want to talk to suddenly want to be your best mate!

I must admit I use it everyday and check it like I would emails. Most of the people I went to school with are listed as acquaintances so their updates don't show up unless I search their profile. The only people who show up on my newsfeed are friends and family, or others I don't mind seeing updates from. :)

[555-04Q2]

I still avoid it like a plague :p:
