I think grumble forum is good enough but how about
Whinge and whine  Or The Moaners paradise

[neilep]

....I agree...I think Grumble Forum is fine...actually...I'm really pissed off with this forum...I think we should create a thread to moan and whinge about THIS thread...

Men are the same as women.... just inside out !!

The most annoying thing Americans say :

"I was like...whatever"

WTF does this mean other than "I've got nothing sensible to offer to the conversation except the sound of my own voice !"

Hi Chris, I'm sitting here with a green T shirt which has the word "Whatever" torn out and sewn. Whatever is my favourite word, though I seldom have to say it because I wear it most of the time

Whatever to me is a polite way of saying “who cares”? To those I can't be bothered to engage in conversation, or even used to diffuse an argument as it often stops people in their tracks that are on a roll of verbal diarrhoea, showing your total disinterest in a single word.

So please don’t send this word to room 101, along with the B word.

my personal grumble at the moment is political correctness. It has the aim of taking sensitive issues and damping them down, but instead seems to highlights these issues and make them bigger than they should be.

example. if we all just forgot about racism maybe it would slowly die out? rather that harping on about it all the time, for example making companies hire a certain percent of staff from ethnic minorities just generates bad feeling (among the candidates that are more highly qualified but have the disadvantage of being white, but didn't get the job because the 'quota' of minorities hasn't been met this month) and hence breeds the very thing its trying to stop. why not just employ the best person for the job? who cares what colour their skin is?

since when did we need politicians to tell us whether what we say is acceptable or not anyway? surely we can work that kind of thing out for ourselves? or maybe we can't. if general manners and tolerance were taught at school then the kids of today (and I'm not actually that old) would be able to do this for themselves.

Hi everyone, my wife asks if I am going to grump again, so I might be qualitifed. I don't like doctors either, mine tried to kill me three times before I gave up on him. But the salesman who thought to post his snake oil pitch here is more than enough cause to grump.
The science behind selling snakeoil is simple:

1) people spontaniously get well or get worse. Use the optomistic point of view and forget those who get worse.
2) People want to get well and will even believe they are better from a treatment when they arn't.
3) If it taste evil, it has to be good for you. (The opinion of Tom Sawyers's aunt).
4) Why would he lie to me?
5) He is such a nice person, and I think he likes me.
6) He went to school and must know more than I do.

And of course the main reason: It works. No he don't mean people get well, he mean he make a lot of money...

The worst part of it is those dang optimists do live longer than grumps like me.

You know what annoys me when people say when something is "new and improved", which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it duh!!!!!

The idea of something being "penultimate" pisses me off. So what??? it's second from last, who cares what’s special about that!

Another thing I adamantly fight for is a metric day! I see no reason not to have a metric day. I understand we can’t take the metric system much further than that since days and months relate to periods of light and dark. Come on lets all meet at the 10th centiday to fight for this!

I think patients of the hospital should get a pass entitling them to free parking in the hospital car park !!..it really pisses me off !

[DrN]

yes, especially when the waiting times are so long, you can be in there for hours thinking about how much extra your parking ticket will cost by the time you get out!

[simeonie]

Ye my mum used to work at the hospital and she had to pay every single day to park.... that is bad I think.

You know what annoys me...... that we let so many foreigners in the country annd give them loads of money and not alow them to work. I am sure the government have a perfectly legit reason for this and if so please tell me that reason

it doesn't help that the ones that are allowed to work often don't seem to want to. have a relative who works in a job centre who fumes over that one! trouble is they soon work out that the government will just give them a better standard of living that what they had to work really had for in their country of origin. I know I'm generalising here, so apologies to any immigrants who work hard for an honest living! I think our immigration policy should be more like Australia's.

Dear David Sparkman

I hope it is not me or my research you are refering to as snakeoil?
