A Bored Festivus - The Airing of Grievances

#1 Post by Ritterskoop » Thu Dec 13, 2007 10:54 pm

We will deal with the Feats of Strength and the Festivus Miracles later.

Or not.

But first is the Airing of Grievances, in which we list the ways in which people have disappointed us.




PSM has never used a placenta as her avatar. Wait. That's not a grievance.

Mikehardware still has not opened a hardware store.

Traininvain is not vain.

Pea doesn't ... oh nevermind.
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Hmmm, I am a little crackers at times.

I have certainly cooked enough food in the EOSB&G.

Sorry to have dissappointed you. :cry:

But I do think I can live with it!

I live in Placentia, not Placenta. But since you are such a nice person, I am glad that you don't have a grievance with me.

There is a picture of me and the suit at the Atlanta audition in Phoenix under misc, its a fine suit but I must confess I don't wear it all that often.

I had never heard of Festivus until Ken Jennings's final game.

Speak for yourself there, Thread Stopper. At least when I stop threads, I also take the time to clean them up....
