yea I went back and trimmed my post after thinking about it a bit more to better reflect the situation.

I guess your right when you boil it down to the wishes of the dead, that is kind of messed up

though I must admit if he did commit suicide because of how popular his band was that really does put a whole new spin on it and give me something to think about, I always just assumed he was high on herroin and pissed off / depressed cause of courtney love fighting with him / being a bitch.

though I do still think he was over rated and that nirvana was just an average to good grunge band.

2 Easy examples. Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morisson. Died in their prime. So they are remembered at their peak with nothing tarnishing their name.

I don't think they're pissed he's in the game so much, more so that you can unlock him as a playable character to play any song in the game, not just Nirvana songs.



Right, "drunk".

Thats exactly what it is. It's mostly disrespectful to see him in a game singing a Bon Jovi song when its Kurt Friggin Cobain. I mean you dont do that. It's like putting Jesus in a game that promotes Scientology.

see this is my problem with curt cobain, he is on such a high pedistal ,people think hes this infallable hero - when in reality hes more like..... white bread, plain, boring, functional, not bad at all, but nothting special.

You know what grinds my gears, people who are all talk. Posers. They will get all in your face , but when push turns to shove, you can see them running a mile away. Or if they need to bring their "gang" to fight for them or help them. Pathetic.

Gaming steering wheels that only turn 180º (An actual steering wheel has more like 900º of turning)

Dieting and exercising grinds my gears because all I'm doing is building up muscle and not actually losing any pounds. I don't mind being stronger, its just that somebody of my physical size and shape shouldn't weigh almost 400 pounds.

People who wear toques/beenies in the summer..ITS WARM OUT, wear a Baseball Hat or something..

You know what grinds my gears? That Facebook is totally f****D up! It's all over the place, so annoying. And to make it even worse, I can't find my new picks for my guitar

My job... seriously grinds my gears. I was hired on two and a half years ago straight out of college for my audio/video editing skills as well as writing/editing (took print/broadcast journalism). Was pretty stoaked, worked in a really nice office with 20+ people in an up and coming software company. It was great. My first two months there I won company tickets to a Sens Stanley Cup Finals game, glass level (for all hockey fans it's a wet dream and one of the greatest experiences of my life). It was great!

Now for the last 7 months things have been going EXTREMELY downhill. At the end of February 90% of our workers were let go... all my friends in the office were gone. There were only 6 of us that survived the layoffs, with myself obviously being one of them. That wasn't even the worst part...

End of March we were told there was a minor delay in our paycheques as our parent company was holding back funding... the minor delay went on 6 weeks... no pay. Things were ok for about a month pay wise and we again went 7 weeks without pay. It took me threatening our President/CEO that I was going to the labour board for our parent company to get us our pay.

Now we've been bought by a larger company, had a name change and have moved from our very nice, large office near where I live to a small, cramped office in the heart of downtown Ottawa which is WAY farther/harder for me to get to work. I went from a 15 min drive to an hour bus ride. Anyways, the only reason we're even still around is because of this huge project we're doing and the potential customers it could bring in. I'm literally the only person under the production side, and I have to QA my own work (not to mention I'm in charge of training parnters all over the world in this software.... something I'm not even qualified to do but I'm all that's left). My boss and his new boss have been kicking their heels about this for 2 months that I've been working on it and now we're in the final two weeks they're FINALLY starting to concentrate on it, checking my work. They're breathing down my neck EXTREMELY hard and having me redo work that should have been QAed by them 2 months ago. We have until next week to get this project done and we're not even half way yet due to my boss' extremely slow work. I've been working 12+ hours and working weekends and still am getting hammered by pressure by the CEO and my boss to work harder and make less mistakes when I'm the only person producing this shit. Pretty much the entire company is riding on my shoulders right now (and I'm not exagerating at all, it really does) and am still being jerked around. I know they're going to pull me into a meeting and hammer me for making mistakes (which shoul have been caught in their QA that should have been done 2 months ago) and I swear today if they're not careful with what they say I will quit on the spot. I don't even care anymore. If I leave they will be so screwed and won't get this project done. Fuck I hate my job so much right now and have applied for so many others and haven't gotten anything. We shall see what happens today in my most likely 12 hours of work and see if I'm still employed....

Sorry for the giant rant, but I'm so pissed and so stressed right now...

Yeah dude, office jobs are hell. I mean, my job isn't exactly thrilling. I have to deal with people all day. Not just any people......but parents of children in our child care programs. Having to sit there, take phone calls, work the front desk by myself from 12:45 to 9:15, talking to parents who are so damn meticulous with how they want their children to be cared for. The worst part is....I don't take care of any of their damn kids! I'm an Office Clerk and even when I instruct them to talk to the site directors about caring for their children, they insist on telling me everything, and expect me to relay all this specific information (especially the vegans, how I hate thee!) to the site directors in full context.I get paid 9.00/hr full-time, and I don't get paid enough for that shit.

So yeah dude, I feel your pain. I'm thinking about being a pimp. Get some bitches to do my work.

Ya man, office jobs are hit and miss sometimes... this is like the third one I've had. I was just blowing off some steam as it's been a very rough year for me. Was suppose to be saving up to buy a house/get a ring for my girlfriend but that's not going to happen in '09.

You know what really grinds my gears?

Ugh I feel for you Mr.Black while I was a Sales Manager in a retail chain, hardly an office worker I felt the pressure of my boss hammering me day in and day out, this while he sat on his skinny ass and did absolutely nothing but drink Starbucks, tell me how lazy and incompetent the rest of the staff was and constantly leave early on "personal business".

I just chucked the job in his face and now I am happy to say I am back in school for Network Engineering...heres hoping I can get a job when I get out.

Dogs grind my gears, especially my dog. Dogs are loud and annoying, my dog does nothing but throw up all over the house and bark over the slightest things, they only lavish attention on you when food is involved, dogs are just big furry four-legged retards. I never had to put up with this shit when I had a cat.

Odd since that's generally how cats act.
My dog almost never barks and is affectionate almost constantly.

You do realize you have to train them, right?

I love dogs, as long as they're not yippee little ankle biters. I find the bigger the dog, the more awesome it is. I think my friend you need to either a) train your dog b) show more attention towards your dog and it will do the same. You don't give a shit about it, like most living things it won't give a shit about you.

I actually take car of the dog here. I walk her, I feed her, I give her treats, and all she does is either lay in the laundry room of my house or bark at anything that passes by my house when I put her outside. But the only time she'll bother to do anything but bark or lay around is when we got food out. Also my mom and roomate like the spoil the shit out of her by giving her leftovers (which is probably why she keeps throwing up all over the place).

What do you expect from her? She's a dog, it's what they do
