Re: Get Your Grump on Thursdays - Was (What's chapping my @ss today?)
In light of the recent cyber scams and phishing emails, my company has ratcheted up the internet security in the office.
I get a nice message saying 'Website blocked, category: forums and message boards' when I try to access VSalon.
In other news, I've had a productive week at work.

Are you specifying "https" in the address when you try to connect?

The grounds crew at my wife's school flung a rock through our car window with a weedwacker.
I don't think it was intentional.

I think so but I'll try that again on Monday when I'm back in the office to see if that works. It's bit frustrating because I often use 'forums and message boards' to research how to do things in the systems I work with.

That's a sign that it's time for a new car. There are plenty of people here ready to advise.
I don't have anything serious to complain about but as a person who spends a ridiculous amount of time in restaurants and especially hotel restaurants it drives me nuts when some guy (it's usually a guy and is the hotel or food & beverage manager and is wearing some shitty polyester suit) hovers around my table to ask me if everything is OK just as I stuff my face with their mediocre food and my face is quite deliberately buried in my computer (I see them hovering my peripheral vision, hoping they notice that I'm concentrating on V-Salon threads) and all I can muster is a look that says, "Get the eff away from here".
People who write run-on sentences piss me off too.
Finally, the hate speech in this country that leads to wannabe assassins shooting representatives officials actually pisses me off. Enough with hate speech. We must be better than that.
That's all. Carry on.

Another week goes by and you still have that moron masquerading as President. Please try harder to remove him.

Why can't I put a seven speed free hub body on a lovely White T11 ?
The amount of dish on a 11 speed wheel offends my inner engineer.

Please try harder to worry about your country, and leave our political system to ourselves.

Sorry, we live in a global community and what Trump does impacts on the rest of the world, whether it's sabre rattling in Nth Korea or thumbing his nose at climate change initiatives. The fact that he is completely unsuited to the job makes things that much worse. Hence I will have an opinion. The sooner he is gone, the better.

Yes, I also have an opinion: You can not vote in my country, so you are simply farting in the wind with your opinion. If it make you feel better, so be it. Freedom of speech and all that. But, as an American, who actually votes in MY country, I find it offensive that you are insulting my President. Can you understand that?
The “global economy?” Why don’t you protest here, on this wonderful forum, against countries that use children as slaves, stone women and homosexuals to death, and pollute the air with zero regard for regulations?
No, it’s easier to call our President names and blame the United States for the world problems.
I hope your country someday is known for more than kangaroos and how horribly you’ve treated Aboriginal Australians.
That’s my Global opinion. Good day sir.

No I can't understand it. The guy is a goose.

My grump? Every day of the week, not just on Thursdays - anyone, anywhere who supports and defends Trump

As the last President stated: Elections have consequences.
My grump? People who can’t accept the reality that if it wasn’t for the last guy, the current guy would not be in office. The complainers don’t seem to “get it”.
Re: Get Your Grump on Thursdays - Was (What's chapping my @ss today?)
It is not Thursday. I'm going to lock this thing until then if necessary.
