Yay more ranting.


Okay going with the theme of the title...

Have you ever noticed those little carpets people put on their toilet seats? Its supposed to be for design or ... I don't know what its for. But have you noticed that that one little 1/3 of an inch shag capet toilet cover is JUST thick enough so that your toilet seat will come crashing down. Somehow they designed it so that if your seats get ANY thicker than they are, they can't stand up. Which is hard for guys who need to pee. That thing comes flying down at light speed at night while your peeing...and its not a pretty sight. You'll end up peeing all over the place, the toilet seat crashes so loud it shakes the house...its ridiculous.

Have you ever noticed that shampoo companies can't think of any good names? They think anything that can be considered pretty or relaxing makes a good hair product. I once saw a face cleanser with caffeine extracts...........CAFFEINE! They said "it wakes your skin right up"...omg. No, it restricts your blood vessels, weakens your bones and its the sugar that wakes you up. They think that any waterfall, any type of wind in a valley or mountain, any flower, or pretty shiny object can be extracted into a shampoo and will magically be great for your hair. Sunflowers don't do crap for your hair, pretty rainforest plants don't do anything for your hair, and pearls don't do anything for your hair. I say, don't buy and hair product that looks fancy, because your paying for their dumb bottle design, their name, and their cheap little gimmicks. Just buy some simple head and shoulders. Anything simple.

Have you ever noticed that girls are just gross? They like to say men are gross, but have you ever watched a "rePHresh" commercial? or a tampax commercial? You see that one where this huge water tank busts open and a huge stream of water comes flying at this girl, so she ninja style whoops out a tampax and lunges the water while all of the water gets soaked up in her pad. Then she comes back and that other girl rubs her finger over it saying "it still feels dry" ....THATS SICK. Thats sick and stupid. Or how about that "rePHresh" commercial where the woman look at the camera (super models of course) say "After innercourse" REPHRESH!
"after douching" REPHRESH! ....Look, you don't look at the camera with a big smile, tell me how you just douched yourself and used a crotch cream...its not right. Do we not know how to sell things to people anymore? If I were in charge of all these companies, I would save them millions with simple commercials. They think fancy special effects, music, and a jingle is going to sell their stuff, when I'm sure all people want is a nice quiet commercial with the facts. Your never going to sell anything if people don't trust you.

Have you ever noticed that every movie is the best of the summer? Thats right, every single movie is this summers best. Its interesting how that is...You know why eragon failed so bad? It's probably because they did that ad telling "hairy potter" to move over for this summers most anticipated movie, eragon. LOL! okay first...They just compared their movie to Harry Potter, thats stupid enough as it is, but they were egotistical about it. I think theres only room for one british talking movie this summer.

On the same note as best movies of the summer, have you ever noticed that every car is also the best? They start comparing themselves to other cars, showing how bad they are, but then you see the competitions ad, and it says how the other ad is descieving you and how their car is actually better. So you know, thanks for lieing to us, its now just so easy to trust you.

Have you ever noticed that the world is perverted? Just watch a deodorant commercial, even gum commercials. I saw one where this guy takes a stick of...uh...I forgot what type of gum, but then all of a sudden some girl takes a peice, and looks at the guys girlfriend...it pauses and says "then it gets interesting"...basically stating that if you chew this gum, a random girl will have lesbian sex with your girlfriend while you groove on it.

Have you ever noticed that commercials always pick the absolute most annoying music ever?

Have you ever noticed that every commercial thinks its some high budget soap opera or comedy special?

Have you ever noticed how people always put their silverware facing up in the dishwasher so that when you want to get it out, you have to grab all that parts that you put your mouth on.

Have you ever noticed that fashion shows do absolutely nothing for the fashion of the people? Do you ever see a girl walking down the street wearing ribbon pants, a flowered top that just covers her breast, a giant flowery straw hat, and a strip or strips of cloth on any random part of their body that has absolutely no purpose for being there.

Have you ever noticed that people always leave their shopping carts in the middle of the parking spaces when their 3 feet away from the cart storage.

Have you ever noticed that dread feeling you get when you hear someone walk into the public bathroom your in. Your always afraid its some teenage [censored] who want to look in over the top and make fun of you while stealing your pants, throwing things in and kicking the door.

Have you ever noticed how clothing companies charge you extra for putting holes and rips in your jeans?

Have you ever noticed how ridiculous you feel doing those strength testers at the faires? I know I'm strong so you hit that thing as hard as you can, your shirt flies up, your pants fall down a little, everyone is looking at you, and the little thing goes up like a foot. Little hint, use the heavy hammer, and hit right in the center. I wasted like 5 dollars on that, it sucks.

Have you ever noticed how fuzzly I am? I'm like a bundle of fuzzy joy :3

Yes to all! Except the last--I've never done one of those.
And also for the dishwasher thing--if you stick your hand down on those afore mentioned parts, you're not only touching the parts they ate off of, you may have a nice big gash in your hand and blood on the fork/knife. And as for the soap-commercials, one just now came on as I am typing this (one of those cell phone commercials with two people talking and then one loses service just as the other said something stupid and now he is embarrassed [and talking to himself]) Yep, it's everywhere.

I basically agree with almost everything you just said. xP You should set up a wordpress blog or something for these rants, I wanna get this stuff in an RSS feed. XD

Although...We used to put the silverware in our dishwasher face up because the dumb dishwasher didn't get it clean with it face down. :<

I dunno, Fuzz, I gotta take you to task on some of these.


Okay, Fuzz, I'll give you that caffeine in facial cleansers and shampoo is probably worthless, but you're wrong here. It's not the sugar, though the sugar helps. Caffeine does wake you up. It's a stimulant, that's what they do. In addition, caffeine has questionable health benefits (I say questionable because research indicates health benefits to regular coffee that aren't there in tea, soda, or decaf). Seriously, ask a coffee drinker -- caffeine makes a big difference.


Unfortunately, have you noticed that that's the only way that you can put silverware in the dishwasher? The exception is spoons, which I tend to face down, not because of where I put my hands but because when I grew up, the spoon handles were narrower than the other silverware and could get caught in the dishwasher basket.


I've never noticed this. This has never been any sort of a problem for me. Where in Heaven's name do you live? I'm already aware that Washington only might have bestiality laws (nothing I found told me if the law passed a couple years ago), but is the whole state messed in the head?

Otherwise, it looks like you're up to your regular antics. Thank God those stupid toilet seat covers went out of style.

YEAY RANT YEAY RANT.

I could easily spend and entire hour in argument with you FUZZ but decided you know what. in the end I'd just be agreeing with you. but I would like to add this

have you noticed how they are now installing low flush toilets everywhere including new houses. OK I get it. it uses less water per flush. but how are you saving water when it takes you 4 to 5 flushes to get that crap you just took to go away. I mean come on. I know it sounded good but did you even test your freaken product.

have you noticed that people just don't know how to drive. you see it all the time. the road is a 50 miles an hour and they have decide they have to come to a complete stop just to make a right hand turn that was designed so that you wouldn't have to come to a complete stop to turn.

Have you noticed that when you are waiting to merge onto the highway your always the one stuck behind the guy that instead of using the ramp to get enought speed to join the rest of traffic he comes to a complete stop at the bottom of it expecting the oncomming traffic to stop for his stupid [censored].

Have you noticed that Fuzz has some very well thought out, written, and lengthy rants for a guy who has to use the bathroom every 5 to 15 minutes. -hands fuzz a stuffed bunny half his size-

have you noticed that the kids of today can't get the clue that no means no. I had a 16 year old try and cyber with me in a chat room. I told him hell no. your 9 years younger then me and your also underage. I'm not playing that game. and he keeps leaving me messages and woun't listen. yea Blocked him but he's not the only. why the hell do I get these stupid idiots. and to think I was only chating about anime with a friend of mine. don't even see where this kid got the idea i wanted to cyber with him.. how annoying.

Have you noticed that My rants always turn a bit hostile it they go to long.

Firstly, I'd like to say that I think you may mean maxipad, not tampax, and that I can understand why girls would not want to feel like they are wearing wet underwear.

If you want to conserve water, just use a gravity toilet, which only uses enough water to wash out the bowl.

don't think you understood i was complaining that they made an toliet that is suppouse to be water efficiant. you know the low flow toliet i think it's called. well I live in military housing and every toliet in the house is a low flow toliet. I just don't see how they save water when you have to flush it soo many times just to get your waste to go away.

Who ever thought that this product was working well needs to be shot.

Well you also don't want those airplane toilets. Those things scare the crap right out of me (little pun intended) You flush that thing and your almost sucked out of the plane. Those things are scary. And have you ever noticed the toilets that when you flush them, take like 10 minutes to fill back up? How about the ones who always get clogged up nomatter what, and then when you try to unplug it, its a stupid screwed up design which makes it impossible to use a plunger. Oh man, I was at my brothers friends house once, and well he just so happened to have one of those toilets. I woke up with pretty bad IBS problems, darn that delicious chip dip...anyhow, I was feeling horrible, terrible cramps, the whole shabang. Anywho, to get to their bathroom, you have to walk through their kitchen through their living room, past their parents room and its at the end of the hall right next to all the rooms. Well I had to go, I had to go BAD. But when I got in there to, it was clogged. So I'm panicking (this is their one and only bathroom by the way) and I'm plunging that fool like nobodies business, and it just won't unclog. The stupid thing is ridiculous, and they have this moron little plunger with a stupid weird bendy goofy toilet bowl shape that basically repels this stupid plunger with a force field. I end up having to keep running back their to give it another try till finally theres nothing I can do, and I have to go. So I end up going, and that was not cool. I had to try to plunge away my heart out after that. Yeah, It didn't work, so I told my brother I'm sick, take me to your house, and finally he did and I was friggen out of there, and have not gone back since.

I agree with all but that, Apple Ipod commercials have been known to pick decent music. of course any commercial involving rap music is automatically crap...so 99% of the time you are absolutely right Fuzz

and yes you are a bundle of fuzzy joy :D

There was that new vitamin water commercial that I mentioned in another thread, and Chevy has recently used "American Pie." I haven't seen much rap, and I suspect most of the music is old enough to be past its prime.

Chevy didn't use the original though, they used a crappy cover. At least, in the commercial I saw. :<

I didn't hear the whole thing, but it sounded like an excerpt to me. I also remember that there was a reworded version of "Take This Job and Shove It" in one commercial, which was decent.

You ever watch those vitamin water commercials? that stupid announcer guy saying something really stupid, like try wrestling with a spider monkey or something, then says try vitamin water, try it. Its dumb as crap, I hate it.

Different vitamin water commercials. I mean the ones where they put football players in a racquetball game.

Have you noticed that Coke or any soda tastes 10 times better in a smaller glass bottle? I hate our stupid plastic bottles. They are no fun, can't collect them.
