So this is now the Rant Thread Version 2.0 Please keep the thread clean, if anything bad happens then Admin please close the thread.

So before going to school this morning, I went to purchase a TravelTen Concession bus pass at my local News agency which costed me $8.40. I have purchased a lot of times from this store before, never had any problems with the guy that owns the store but today he "accidentally" gave me a Single-Only ticket, I was rather late to school so I assumed I got what I paid for and I went ahead and got on the bus. I went on the bus and put my ticket in, I realised that it's a Single'-Only ticket. Cause it said "No more rides left" and after checking the ticket labeling. So then I thought it was probably just an honest mistake.

So after school today I went in with my friend. And asked the same guy If I could get my TravelTen Concession Card, and he was on the phone while he was talking to me. I said I would gladly pay him $1 because the Single-only ticket cost that much, if I could get my travel ten concession card which I paid $8.40 for. Then he starts blabbering about how he has never seen me this morning and even in his life, even though I have been there a few times, buying the same ticket. He was rather rude about it too. So I asked him If he can watch the security camera footage, to prove that I was there this morning, then he says that he has no security camera even though it's right behind me. He starts screaming how I'm just a cheater etc. I raised my voice and told him to stop lying and to stop cheating your customers. He then points his finger on an A4 piece of paper saying something like "no refund" or something like that. So I exit out and my friend was screaming the F word at him, and I cursed him too, while I see him smiling when we left.

After that I told my parents about it and they were very upset, they went and told the guy off at the newsagency. After that my parents told me not to worry about it and stuff. But my dad was still really pissed off. But he got over it soon.

Okay I don't care about the $8.40, but the owner of that newsagency just really pisses me off. He can rip me off $100 and I'll get over it the next day, but what I don't want is when I'm treated with disrespect and accused of being a lier/cheater. Also he was being a rude jerk to my parents saying that they should die and he makes more money than my parents do. Seriously?

I just wanted to share this to clear my chest. Maybe I overreacted about this situation, but he just really pissed me off, I hope he goes out of business. [MOG]

I was waiting in line to be served at my local computer parts place. I'm standing there patiently, I can see everyone is flat out so that didn't bother me but what did start making my skin crawl was the prick standing behind me screeching into phone in some other language. I think blabbing on your phone loudly in a quite area is rude but doing it in another language just seems a little more rude. Personally I feel embarrassed when I'm talking on my phone in a quite room, I either walk outside or lower my voice, this guy had no shame and was having his conversation loud enough for whole street to hear him.

That's why I hate mobile phones.. I have lots of customers answer their phone and talk while I'm serving.. I don't care too much but it just annoys me a little.. I don't answer if I'm busy like at a cash register..I usually hang up then call back.. Or say hang on I'll call you back

God damn trains [Rage]

The new timetable adds more trains, and yet it takes me an extra 15 mins to get to work leaving at the same time. Figure that out [Rage] [Rage]

Then this morning they split the platform so people would use both exits. Only I wanted to use the subway and go to another platform at Flinders street which means jumping they'll impromptu divider which made them very angry, but I didn't want to exit [Rage] [Rage] [Rage] [Rage]

Seeing kids dressed like this drives me nuts.

For starters it looks so far beyond stupid it's not funny. I just can't figure out why anyone would go out of their way to look this stupid considering it must be massively uncomfortable. If you want to see something funny just someone dressed like this run :P
My hatred for this "dress sense" stems from the classic exposed arse crack. How numb do you have to be not to know that a section of your arse is hanging out of your pants. Legally you should be able to poor cold water down someones pants if you see arse crack peeking out.

Hahahha agreed @Guyver :D

It should also apply to stupid surfy types that get around ALL year round in just board shorts with their ass cracks hanging out. I get it, you are built like a Greek god but I don't want to see your crack thanks and frankly the whole bronzed muscly look doesn't do it for me anyway- I prefer nerds :D And no, just wearing a pair of black rimmed glasses with the lenses poked out does NOT count!

I feel the same way about the gothic kids. I wouldn't mind so much if I didn't have to listen to the minority of them complain about how they're sick of being tragically misunderstood and hate being gawked at.
If you didn't want to attract unwanted attention, why would you go out of your way to present yourself like that? Jackie Chan is confused.

massive rant:
people on online sites like Ebay and Gumtree etc. (more gumtree) that say that they are buying retro consoles and they are hardly worth anything at all. they have a list like this (all complete)
NES-$20
N64 $20
Different coloured N64 $30
SNES $15
Dreamcast $20
Saturn $25
Atari 2600 $10
Atari 5200 $15
Atari 7800 $15

Any games like Spyro, Crash bandicoot, Zelda, Mario are only worth about $2 each

that really shits me when i see that. scammers they are and they should be banned

Funny thing is the show is funded by the NZ government. GC locals and NZ locals also hate this show because it gives a bad example to both.

Unfortunately I can't agree- from the sounds of it the show pretty much sums up the GC.
No offence to any one from NZ ( My Richie is from there) but it seems the coast has more peeps from NZ living here than actual Australians these days and of course they fill the nightclubs on the weekends...

High five!

She's some loser that everyone thought was hot for about 5 seconds.. Personally I think she looks like she has had her face pushed in! She was the model for the bikini part of the Australias travel campaign a few years ago, her line was " Where the bloody hell are you"
You want to show how hot Australians are then you need Miranda Kerr (love) (love) (love)

"So where the bloody hell are ya?"

I remember that, I wonder if it actually worked.

Actually when she was going out with Michael Clarke the cricketer she almost had a head on with me in his Aston Martin, I was waiting to to straight at a set of lights, she was coming from my left turning right and cut the corner off almost ploughing into the front of me. There are not many silver Aston Martin V8 Vantages around, especially not being driven by long haired blondes in Bondi.
