Just a few to get me started
I'll begin with my main peeve at present, Russ Students. I am very happy to find a new place to stand on my soap box and unleash what my fiancee calls an overly agressive stream of hate against these retarted members of Norwegian society. It's driving my boy crazy so ranting here saves his ears! Hurrah.

Well, I live in a fair sized city half way up Norway. And I am currently in day three of my annual two weeks of hate and pain. It occurs every year at this time, two weeks from the beginning of May (or last day of April this year it seems..) until national day on May 17. Every year at this time the graduating students from high school, aged between 17 and 20 dress up in these ridiculous dungaree things and white lab coats (colour coded for whichever course they took) and run around ALL the freakin time downtown blowing their damn fucking whistles 99.9% of said allthefreakintime, drinking cheap beer, generally trashing the place and making a nuisance of themselves. I have no issue with the tradition of 'yay we're leaving school! woo!', what I do take exception to is the fact that these children think that being Russ entitles them to act like fools without repercussions, see engagement and wedding rings as a challenge (mm that's ALWAYS fun..) and harrass people who try to stand up to their whistle blowing irritating pack mentality. In fact, just yesterday I saw a troup of girls about 15 strong aggressively following a couple down the street blowing their whistles in their ears at every opportunity.. I assume they guy had told them where exactly they could put their damn whistles. Poor lad.

The other most annoying thing about these Russ is that they have a set series of 'challenges' to do if they so please, which gains them a bobble on their ridiculous looking stupid hats every time they complete a task. One of the tasks this year, as I discovered to my horror yesterday, was to jump out in front of a moving bus and proceed to jump about in front of it like loons for five minutes or until the driver, fed up with beeping his horn at them started moving. I mean COME ON! Jumping in front of a bus for a bobble on a hat? How ridiculously fucking retarded is that??

I also live just across the main bridge to the city center on the ground floor, which means that all through the night I get the delight of whistles blowing continuously just at the annoying spectrum of my hearing along with these people bashing my windows and checking the door every three minutes all through the night. What do they hope to accomplish?? What are they going to do when they find a door that opens?? MAN Don't these children have HOMES to be at?? Exams to revise for? I just want to backhand every one I come across..


Well that was longer than I had expected..

My other main peeve is people that whine and moan all the time about how bad their lives are and how 'nobody suffers like me!' and then proceed to do absolutely fuck all to change their situation and make it any better. I have a friend who is like this, two in fact. And I try to help them when they come to me upset, I suggest things they could try to make things better, I suggest self help motivational tools, I look up things on the internet they could read to help themselves and they DO NOTHING ABOUT IT! Damnit! And then they even have the gall to shout at me for 'telling them how they should be feeling'. Well fine fucking fine, feel miserable. Just don't come whining at me expecting sympathy when you're not even trying to help yourself! Grrrr...

I'm sure I'll think up more later.. But I think I have ranted enough for now :)

i got as far as "Norway" and "Cheap Beer"
and my brain stopped working due to logical inconsistencies.

wtf is "Russ" anyway?

I see the logical inconsistancies
I forgot to mention cheap beer being cheap by norwegian standards ;)

Russ was explained a bit further up. Russ students are a two week long annual happening of graduating high school students.
