OK, I noticed that a lot of people post stuff in the fuck list over at the other home away from home, and a lot of times it is just minor gripes. I figure it might be a good idea to set up a thread over here for things that don't really bother you all that much, but you still wish would just go away.

I'll start this off... To heck with girls who you like and don't like you back. It's not the most important thing in my life, but still. Just the typical emo rant here, nothing special.

[salmonjunkie]

To heck with them, yeah. But think of it this way. She's the one that's missing out.


On the same front, to heck with LA girls. All style and no substance. (not all of them, of course - but a whole heck of a lot of them)

[chrisisadad4308]

To heck with Solly's mom. She keeps calling me, and I keep trying to tell her that I'm married now, but do you think she listens? Heck no she doesn't. Solly, get your mom under control, man!

[The Jewish Cunthead]

Awesome - another one to smite.

[williamssl]

Hey Gator - you've made several references recently to being in a funk/pissed/etc. What up? And it may be more appropriate for "The Fuck List" OOver there...but with it down...let 'er rip.

To heck with those who are already dogging Nancy Pelosi. She's a big-hearted old softie whose only concern is the welfare of the country. I'm sure she won't engage in partisian politics and will unite the warring parties to usher in an era of peace and tranquility among politicians.


BWAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA


Seriously, to heck with those who dog Pelosi by saying she's going to be a nasty vindictive bitch who is going to fracture the House even more, yet a year ago were complimenting Delay on his no compromise leadership style. Fucktards.

[williamssl]

To heck with underpants gnomes. Always stealing my underpants. And dammit why can't they take the dirty ones? But nooooooooooooo....always the clean ones.

[Loki]

Ha-ha! I'm getting flipped off by the pres! EXALT!

No, no - that wasn't aimed at you or anyone here. It was aimed at a local radio station. Tonight I'm driving home and I'm listening to a conservative/libertarian talk show on the radio. Sometimes I agree with the host, sometimes I don't, but either way his show is usually intelligent and entertaining.

He's off on Christmas vacation this week. More power to him. But his replacement is awful. Gosh awful. "The Al Franken Show" awful. So awful that it makes you weep for the human race that there is a possibility that this man has reproduced. I can stomach partisian arguments, but not WHEN YOU FREAKING CONTRADICT YOURSELF EVERY TIME YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH. He was railing on Pelosi today. Again, this is fine. I couldn't give two craps as there is plenty about her not to like. But the exact same things he's dogging Pelosi for are the things he heaped tons of praise on Delay on previous fill-in appearences. He had nothing to back up his statements tonight. It was all doom and gloom based on what he "knew" about the incoming Congress. Again, partisian politics, and a major pet peeve because the normal host at least backs statements like these up with something. The best (?), though, was when he and a listener were talking about what major US city would be vaporized in 2007 by terrorists because the new Congress was going to let them waltz into the country. I swear, I'm not making this up.

I try to give this guy a fair shake. I really do. I tried tonight. But after 10 minutes I was diving for the change station button. I would rather *gasp* listen to the local sports yackers dissect the latest Red Sox deal than waste another brain cell on this guy.

Here's another, more in keeping with the lightness of this thread.

To heck with clueless management.

So my company has decided upon this awesome new strategy/direction. Fine. More power to 'em. They want to include the employees, make them more concerned about the company.

Again, also fine. In my opinion, the company could use it. Most people there regard their jobs as nothing more than a paycheck. Employees that care about the company or have a vested interest in it will put forth that extra oomph. Plus it makes the workplace better. Otherwise you have what is basically a corporate McDonalds.

Okay. So - New company direction: Check. Make employees care: Check. And the way they do that is....?

They send upper management to an "I AM [insert company name here]" seminar. Upper management then has their admins post inspiration posters around the workplace referencing things that went on at the seminar that those that did not attend know nothing about.

And that's it!

No, really. I'm not kidding. THAT was the big "make employees a part of the process!" initiative.

Let's hear it for corporate management!

So who was it? I listen to some gems here and...while some are very effective at managing across the political continuum with intelligence, others (and subs) are downright embarrasing.

[williamssl]

To heck with people who take an image or phrase that, while it may have been popularized elsewhere, has since been incorporated into charitable efforts. There are so many to choose from, but picking one random example that introduces inner city kids to the joys of ice skating (and presumably turns them teh gay in the process):



Proceeds from this and other t-shirt designs teach people to skate and turn them gay:



So to heck with people who use or take these sayings and don't make donations on behalf of the charities they now represent.

[Batman]

To heck with people who modify their posts to completely change what they had said.

To heck, I say!

To heck with my family. Straight to flippin' heck.

Dad can't keep his opinions to himself around the wife's family (both sides... her parents are divorced & re-married).

Sister can't get a clue about the real world (always been sheltered and joined a sorority... never had a date that I know of and can't keep HER opinions to herself, either).

Mom is living in the past (probably due to the death of my sister 10 years ago which is a bit understandable, but when you ask for a list of movies/music/games I want for Christmas then ignore it and but my fucking He-Man DVD's instead??!!?? Sure I used to love He-Man... when I was FIVE!!!).

[The Jewish Cunthead]

Wow I didn't know your sister died... I'm sorry dude.

You and Mrs. Bait should have come out here for Xmas... we went to Universal Studios on Xmas Eve and saw Dreamgirls on Xmas Day. Not a horrible way to spend a holiday.

[Deleted]

It's ok. I was 17 at the time. One of those things that was simultaneously the worst and best thing that ever happened to me. Really got me to appreciate life a heck of a lot more.

[Chris Eco]

To heck with relatives who make loud anti-Semitic comments when you bring your Jewish girlfriend over for Christmas.

[Andy]

To heck with jewish girlfriends. Why must they bring their stupid channukah bushes into your christmas tree goodness?

[The Jewish Cunthead]

J00000000 hater!
