Default Re: time to get banned from the org (proper rant)

Have you ever seen the film "Falling Down" ? with Michael Douglas ....

Freeways are clogged. Terror stalks our cities. At shops and restaurants, the customer is seldom right. The pressures of big-city life can anger anyone. But Bill Foster is more than angry. He's out to get even.

"I'm going home", Foster says as he abandons his grid-locked car on the hottest day of the year. Instead, he walks straight into an urban nightmare by turns absurdly funny and shatteringly violent. Michael Douglas is Foster, an ordinary guy at war with the frustrations of daily living. Robert Duvall is the savvy cop obsessed with stopping Foster's city-wide rampage. Falling Down is their story, a spellbinding, unconventional thriller that asks: "are we falling apart?"

Worth watching this film I can relate to a lot of the frustrations / feelings that his character has.

Anyway hopefully things will improve for you

Well I hope you feel better for that,but WTFYTA,loads of rant with no substance Domestic,work,a person in particular,the authorities what? I for one haven't a clue what you are on about so the rant makes no sense to me,apart from the fact your upset about something.
The day before you are singing praises of good times so it is quite a U-turn.
We all can loose our cool and getting things off your chest out in the open can relieve the situation,but is it not better to do it at the party concerned.
Can't commiserate or agree if I don't know the cause in the first place.

Sorry

I watched this just recently actually, very good it was too, not that I like Michael Douglas much but that's besides the point.

I;m guessing you've nicked that blurb from a movie site? Either that or you're possibly in the wrong job hehe

Lol! And I can imagine you would then have posted that he shouldn't be airing his dirty laundry in public, telling him to man up and get on with it!

No ,not quite,I have no objection to anybody having a rant but its better if you know what they are ranting about.
I just hope he now feels better and is back to the normal lovable DP--or should that be controversial

True, better he splurged on here than at his wife or other people IRL though.
