The Whining Wall

Immediately After you finish writing that long post about the drama that has enveloped you today, and are gushing out your woes like a little bitch.....step back and recognize that you are the only one that will be reading it and understanding it.

Whatever thread you happen to be in....STOP!
  • Highlight your entire post, right click, and hit copy. or CTRL+C. whichever.....
  • Find this thread in the Meta forum.
  • Go to last post, scroll down and paste (CTRL+V) into the quick reply box.
  • Then Post it and forget it.
  • Go back to the thread you were going to post in, and link the post if you must.
  • EAD
  • To do this, right click the post number of your rant, (that's in the top right area of each post)
  • click on 'copy link location' in firefox...or hunt it down in 'properties' with IE...
  • Type "whining about this" in the original thread
  • highlight that text.
  • click the little globe icon ...that is right in the middle of the text entry header...
  • paste the copied location url into that box, and hit ok
  • finish that post with a quote from any shakespear work
  • go on about your binness knowing that you've gotten that off of your chest and now feel better about it
The fact that I'm bitching about bitching in this thread creates a feedback loop of bitchery that puts the entire universe of bitchandwhinedom at risk of implosion and other scientific sounding situations...like apoplexy or ....aneurism. i have to link the rant instead of posting it, but i have to link it to it's own location.....so. have fun chasing that down when you read this.
Whining about this
Or you could post in the what's upsetting you today thread and hope someone reads it and feels your pain with you.....because that matters somehow.

But do you hate the "What's Making You Happy Today?" thread as much, or less?

Just trying to figure out whether you were irritated by the relative unimportance of the details of people's daily lives, or just the fact that some of them are depressing.

So...if LJ doesn't want to read it, it needs to go here?

I'm confused. I think I'll complain.

Hnag on... as a major contributor to the unhappy thread, I fail to see why it's better to put it here? I'd like to think I only pollute one thread with misery, but why change which one it is?

Meh, I've been spanked already today, I'll follow the herd.
