    If u post here it must begin with "Do you know what really grinds my gears..."

    So I'll begin:

    When people don't listen to the OP's original instructions, that gets my gears grinding!

    Here's what grinds my gears - these whingeing threads.

    To be perfectly honest, I feel these Rant threads are just glorified spam threads and I'm not surprised the mods have deleted them. This thread is another example of this.

    We all have problems. That's life. I don't see the need to post about them.

    "Oh noes! I broke a nail!"

    Really? I don't give a sh*t. I've got my own problems to deal with.

    There you have my thoughts on the matter.

    Don't fucking read them then. Problem solved, and no whingeing on your part necessary :rolleyes:

    Funny how you object to me whingeing about a whingeing thread.

    The 'don't read it' argument doesn't really stand up as it can be used to justify anything on this forum.

    Why not have a let's talk about sex thread? If you don't like it, don't read it. Doesn't really work that argument, does it?

    Yeah, it's hilarious

    Judging by the tone of your comments, I can actually see why you need these whinge/rant threads so much.

    Yet more wonderful contributions from DaveMcG...:rolleyes:

    Did he not tell you MNG....? The "core posters" should be allowed do what they like on the forum.

    Hulla locked the rant thread because it was an off-topic spamfest. He also said in his warning that if it did go off-topic he would lock it and there wouldn't be another one. That was evidenced by Truckle locking the thread started by Chakar.

    I wouldn't worry about it, I'm sure it'll be locked soon.

    Plus there's an announcement about it!

    Yeah, god forbid the people here actually read whats right in front of them.

    Ya ok, spamfest not doing justice to my favouite episode of Family Guy (I admit I've only watched about 3, stoopid BBC).

    Lock it, seems it being spammed with rants about spam.

    ...it's like ra-a-ain, on your wedding day...

    (I must point out, the whole broken air conditioning in the office has led me to delerium, and I do crazy things like photograph shoes)

    EDIT: this delerium also led me to miss the notice at the top of the page, apologies hulla
