I figured since we had a thread of things where we could post the things that made us depressed and happy, we could have a thread where we could vent our frustrations and anger.

 

I'll start the ball rolling and complain heftily about one of the girls assigned to my group. None of us like her - she's really, really annoying. She's very dedicated to her university work, which is amazing - really great. Except she pretty much makes the rest of us suffer. She'll message us at like 11pm at night panicking over deadlines (She did this to my friend in the first week of university in September, demanding they meet up for a group discussion over the weekend. The assignment was due in like November.)

 

And she's just such an asshole. She is never satisfied with people's workload. She usually complains about your workload to others, even when you've done your part. She's so dramatic, and as I said, while her eagerness to work is great, it's also a hindrance. We decided as a group at our first meeting that we wanted to do research into an airport to study the emissions and ethics. She wanted to do automotive vehicles.  She was outvoted 3-1, and she was like "Oh okay". Then explained how she already started research on what she wanted to do, so we'd have to do it. What. The fuck.

Real talk, y'all need to grow some balls and check her. Don't let her drag her dick over your collective faces.

Also this is a great thread, I always feel shitty posting in the depression thread because like, well let's be honest 96% of what gets posted in there is mild grievances rather than actual depression.

I'm with Gol on this one, not that that is really an oddity.

I knew several girls like this in high school, which is where that attitude takes hold usually.

Some people are allowed to get away with being a steamroller because their teachers in the past probably loved their attitude for education and encouraged them to pull powerhouse leadership moves. Which is fine when most of your group is most likely made up of kids who don't give two shits about a project. But once college/university rolls around you are suddenly in a much larger pool with people who chose to be there just like you.

 

I would just flat out tell her that the group is a democracy and regardless of what research she jumped the gun on it's the group's decision. If she fights just remind her that democracy is good and dictatorships are bad. Then proceed with whatever plan the rest of the group wants. Either she falls in line and stops being a dink, or she goes to the teacher and probably gets set straight that way.

It is definitely good to have a place for people to bitch about the small potatoes.

Venting is good for lots of reasons and is also kind of fun.


It is perfectly acceptable to fear and admire a being you could not possibly understand.

Yeah, I'm not gonna let her get her way if it puts us in a bind. She's said she wants to change something else today, so I told her I'd "get back to her on it". Been working today, and the first thing I saw was that and I couldn't bring myself to even consider what she's asking right now.

Mine is more bitter though, and true negativity can never be stamped out. Especially on my level.

Today is a crappy day. Or at least a lot of bad things happened. But because i am actually happy in general i don't really care. It may also be because i worked a lot today.
I was supposed to fix our wifi at home because there is some problem with our wifi access point. But now can't start my laptop because i think i deleted my bootloader oups..
Also i had a really weird sex dream about a friend but i've known him my whole live and he's more like a brother
So that's all about my struggles.

I just want people to learn how to close a fridge.

I just want people to empty an elevator so I don't have to bring it up, check to see where it goes, send it back down, walk down the stairs to empty it, close it and send it back up, walk back up there to send my load down just to rinse and repeat.

Seriously, what does it take to educate dumb and lazy people? Do I have to wow them with awesome powers? Like summon cluthu or bring Harambe back from the dead? Shit.

Fae's profile picture is too similar to mine and I just spent a sleepy two minutes trying to remember my sex dream about a friend that's like a brother to me.

So i got my laptop to boot again. I just used the brute force method and set up my whole system again. I just did that 2 weeks ago so i still had a bootable usb. But didn't think of my broken wifi so now i can't install anything

Yeah i realised that as well. But there are balloons on my pic

This is going in a weird direction..

Also i had another weird dream. I was pregnant but the kid was from my sister and her boyfriend. In the meantime she was doing yoga and bleaching her underarm hair

The transition is amazing here.

I'm bitchy because I'm sick again. Saw a friend who gave me a big hug. Asked her how she was doing:
"Oh, I'm sick actually."

Maybe it's just coincidence but I've been up The entire night with a resurfaced cold.

Met up with a bunch of mates last night which was great, but perhaps three out of six of them have turned into losers since the last time I've seen them and it's just like...ugh can you just act your age or grow a personality, or both?

Man, I hate people like that. I know one guy who is just a complete asshole. can't act normally so acts like a douche. He even tries to force you to listen to him play his new "amazing" album on guitar. He's a douche. 

For some reason i'm very sad today. I don't feel like doing anything. And I want someone to hug me.

 

That really sucks. I hope you feel better.
