So, if you have something that pissed you off today, however small or big, even if it's totally banal and won't matter tomorrow, please feel free to vent in this space.
I'll go first.
Feeling inspired by Weirdmom's picture last night, I decided to venture out to my neighborhood World Market in search for Jaffa Cakes. I hadn't tried them before, and I really wanted to, because they looked, and sounded tasty (tastey of you're a Fergie fan). Aisle after aisle, I looked: NO MUTHA-F*CKING JAFFA CAKES! I asked the lady at the front if she had heard of them or if they had any in stock. She said they sounded vaguely familiar, and she thought they might be a holiday confection. "You should check back in October maybe." So I left World Market, my last hope for finding Jaffa Cakes, with some Haribou gummy bears instead. *cue sad trombone*

That's annoying. I called before I went since I wasn't sure and was happy to hear that they had them. And that was in July so it's not a holiday treat!

hmm...well, they're not actually called "Jaffa Cakes" on the package. Some are just called, "chocolate biscuits," some aren't really labelled. I've found them at World Market...it's in the cookie section...I know Cadbury is one brand that makes 'em...
good luck finding them next time! |

| what really annoys me is ppl going to a shop, not saying "good morning" as they come in or "thank you" to the sales person and leaving without "goodbye". |

| Yeah I knew that there were certain brands of them. There were some Cadbury cookies (biscuits) but I didn't see any orange/chocolate ones. DAMN YOU WORLD MARKET. |

| my super smart coworker asked me to check to make sure a fax went through properly after she left....no problem...just checked...it failed....hmmm maybe that's because you wrote the fax number down as: 866-0531-3940! adding an extra digit just to be safe??....what a moron...i'm outta here! ;P |

| I'm just currently amazed at how many rude people there are in the world. And drivers that cut you off. And friends that stab you in the back. And just relatively mean spirited individuals that don't care how they treat fellow human beings... yeah, today wasn't a good day... |

That really sucks. but on the bright side, I don't think you had to retract your last rant. I imagine you're allowed more than one. I'll have to check the rule book though... |
