The Daily Peeve / Rant

I like that no one is censored.

I agree with both Jeppy and Teacher Terry.


The point of ice creaming is virtue signaling. I know because I do it myself to signal to my tribe “I’m with you.” A Reddit upvoting button does the same.

I also like the fact that no one is censored even if there is too much ice creaming and some pretty repetitive posts coming out of certain posters, me included. You all can joke all you like about salad spinners, but we really don’t talk about salad spinners often maybe, what, once every two years? And we really have not had a serious debate about them in quite a long time.

I post on ice cream threads because I like to tweak people who don't like their chocolate adulterated with fruit, and vice versa. I also generally drop a comment related to the original topic. How's that for virtue signalling?

Clearly a micro aggression aimed at the culinarily sensitive. Besides, ice cream is for lightweights, and advanced palates prefer frozen custard.

I'm pretty catholic when it comes to frozen desserts, though lapsed otherwise. I wonder if there's a frozen custard version of Mandarin Orange...

I’d like to ream whoever does the pickups of blood for testing for my doctor’s office. I had blood drawn Monday. Stupid people never picked it up. Now they want me to come back in. Absolutely not. They lost their chance. I was two hours late on Monday to work due to this. I’m having to work extra the rest of the week to make up for coming in late. I’m not going to go through that again next week. I told them I’ll call them when I’m able to come in and it’s probably going to be a good while.

Guess I am not advanced since I dislike frozen custard.

Saw the evil ex at the gas station. Why can't the world be a bigger place? I like this gas station but now I'm going to start going elsewhere.

Why can't you just ignore and go on with your life?

I am going on with my life. I am not foregoing the use of gas.

If someone stole from your disabled child would you want to see that person?

As I recall you are liberal. How you feel about running into Donald Trump? Would it make you cringe? Would you try to avoid Trump Tower, Mar-a-Lago, or other places where you might run into him?

Here is my peeve: I opened a bottle of 2012 Merlot from Columbia Winery. I usually like the Columbia Valley red wines. I always like Merlot.

This was not drinkable. There was sediment in it but that really is not a problem it was just —not good.I even set it aside for a few days in case that first sip was not indicative of the entire bottle. UGG.
