Let me start by saying I know I am an angry individual. But I acknowledge it, and have been through therapy, counseling, anger management and so on. Yes it is much better, and I finally have a supportive partner. I said that to say this, writing is one of the best ways to gets feelings out, before they control me. And this bitch column has been a saving grace on a number of occasions. Things piss all of us off from time to time obviously, and as a community this column is probably one of the best collective tools we have (Thanks Coast) to vent. The unfortunate part is, I’ve noticed that there are a number of people that seem to have it in their heads to straighten us out, people that are pissed off. In the comments there are always people that are trying to correct the bitcher. Like they have no right to the way they feel. Hell most of us understand that being angry isn’t always rational, but it is probably the most powerful emotion (next to love) we have, and things piss us off. Be grateful they are online venting anonymously, instead of becoming a headline about road rage, etc. I get that there are people that could drive around this city and NEVER be rattled for a moment, or folks that can and do put up with lousy neighbours, poor service, shitty bosses, etc etc. But, whether you get it or not, there are those of us that just don’t have it in us to deal with those things without it pissing us off. Rightly or wrongly, is not for some stranger without all the facts to suddenly get all righteous and tell us to chill out, or some such crap. I feel what I feel, and as long as I don’t act out toward my fellow man/woman I have every right to my feelings and DO NOT want your bloody opinions on how I should see the situation!
Again be thankful we can collectively vent here, understand that and let us be mad as hell, rational or not!!!! And keep your bloody opinions about how I feel to yourself! —Workin’ It Out

You have a right to your feelings, yes, but I also have the right to tell you you’re a SET when you get mad about shit that’s your own damn fault.
Or is stupid as shit.
If you’re allowed to go on and on about how you’re pissed off at something and you don’t like the fact that others aren’t going to lick your ass and agree with the stupid shit you get mad about, DON”T READ THE COMMENTS.
FFS.
I totally agree that you have every right to vent your feelings and frustrations.
So do all the commentators.
Good day.
I will say though.. i HATE being psychoanalyzed and perhaps you do too and this is where this feeling comes from. But there is a difference between someone butting into what is none of their concern and tearing your psyche apart and someone putting their psyche on a plate and leaving it unattended in the middle of a room filled with salivating freud-dogs.
I have no idea where that mental picture came from..
sometimes when i’m speaking, i just want to vent. if i wanted advice, i would ask for it at the beginning of my diatribe. this refers to real life, i’m looking at you bear^^
I think it is important to see other peoples views on different subjects. If you don’t want to see the opinions and comments – don’t read them. If you put something out into the universe I think it is important that you see what others think otherwise don’t post.
Just my 2 cents.
if you don’t want opinions, then why the fuck come on here you fucking idiot?this is a forum, you know what that means? you get good or bad feedback from those of us that dwell here. by posting that stupid bitch, you just opened a big fucking can of worms.
you know if you didn’t want people to read and react…
you could always just write this in your journal.

What are you gonna do about it if I don’t stop? Are you gong to take away my birthday? That’s right, I didn’t think so. Why don’t you stop being such a wuss and join the discussion with your opinion?
paingirl – Men fix things, we’re problem solvers, it’s part of our nature.
Don’t tell a man about your troubles unless you want some input.
If all you want to do is bitch & vent, call a girlfriend 😉

i don’t have any girlfriends so shutup^^there problem solved
Even Kong knows not to put his feelings out there unless he’s prepared to have them trampled. Silly humans.
Some things making scratching noises in the part of the brain that deals with memory.
Something like , if you don’t like the heat stay out of the damn kitchen !
In Plain English OB…if you don’t like the Comments Section at the bottom of each bitch , don’t OPEN IT !
doesn’t that sound easy enough for ya ?
Santa?? Sorry…I take it back…didn’t mean to make you mad…we’re still good for the snugglie though right?…right??
If u r right then there is no need to get angry and if u r wrong then u dont have any right to be angry.
Go to the movie theatres for some stress releif, maybe Sebastien will give you a hand 😉
If therapy comes from writing the bitch, then you don’t have to read the comments. However, I find it interesting how easy someone else can take a bitch of mine and turn it into something totally irrational. I think that is somewhat therapeutic as well.
At the very least, it is all fun, imo.
We know you have the right to your feelings, and we have a right to ours as well.
If you want someone to hold your hand and agree with everything you say, save it for the people that give a shit about you, not the internet.
There’s an app for this, it’s in the fuck off section.
Holy fuck, OP, you take this board far more seriously than most of us do. If you take the remarks here to heart, that’s your problem. Most of us are just here for the guacamole.

Good one, Orgasmatron – that’s one of my favourite episodes of Futurama – by the way, don’t you think the leader of the provincial PC party looks like Kif?
OP, here is what you need to do. 3 times a day; hang upside down by your knees. That’s right, turn that frown upside down! Have a cup of tea. Make sure you have enough vitamin B in your diet.
You don’t want my opinion but I gave it to you. Now write another bitch about that.
hey brend… you forgot about those in spryfield and north preston….

OB, you could be like the North Preston residents and resolve their angry issues through the use of guns. Heck, one guy just got shot up last night in the hommie hood.
Hahaha, sounds like the people who think they can deny gays marriage licenses, and other services, its ok I love these people. Is so cute when they start explaining to the police how its their right, and then they want EI if fired. Yeah we will all just sit by and listen like your children do, seen not heard. Nevr forget, one day I’ll be online behind/in front of you at a store, how that turns out depends on you, for my sake plz say stupid shot to someone at that time, I want to show you how much I give a fuck whay you wanna hear, you cowardly little flower, I wanna make you cry and call 911 like many have before.
jimmy, have you ever pocket dialed 911, by mistake? our cat did that once
What does your question mean, I assume its another digg full of nothing again. Why is the world fucked up , could not be that china has a better future to you ppl, all u see is $$$, and an means to grow fatter.
no, real question jim. i’m conducting a poll
Our fat old tabby Hubert once fell backwards off the coffee table while cleaning himself and while I was collapsed with laughter he shot me one of those “Why did you do that?” glances that cats specialize in when someone has witnessed them do something truly stupid.
Lots of Xmas shoppers today, including Agent -195
excellent. i’ll be down on saturday or see you at the summit. the neediest of the two fur brothers, once caught his very busy tail on fire, from a candle. i don’t think he even noticed, cause we put it out so quickly. i’d rather have cats and no candles^^
