Those that can't do... RANT!

rantingsofamadwomanblog.com...

Hmmm... not specifically related to PMR/GCA, but it does make my blood boil, which will induce stress, which will cause a flare or minimally cause me to experience flare like symptoms. So indirectly related to PMR/GCA.

Warning; There may be one or two offensive words/phrases contained in this blog post... Please do not click the link, if you are easily offended.

Just a suggestion. As we were all gently scolded not so long ago about becoming embroiled in a political discussion in the forum I wonder if we should all consider placing comments on Mamici's blog rather than here?

Brilliant idea, thank you.

in reply to HeronNS

Why? You weren't scolded by me!

...but I do love a good boycott, so consider away!

No, we were scolded by the admins. I was just trying to avoid that happening again. I hope you didn't misunderstand? And it wasn't a post I made that time, either, someone else who was upset by an American political thing, It wasn't just one of our frequent tangents within a post. More like this where the main feature is political. Please don't take offence. You know I read your blog and like it!

in reply to HeronNS

My comments to you were all "tongue in cheek," HeronNS, and no offence taken at all. As said, I'm always up for a good boycott!

Please don't think you ever have to explain or justify yourself to me! I'm nobody.

My Rants are just that, rants... if people read them, and they resonate, GREAT. If nobody reads them (or comments) no harm, no foul. I got it off my chest... all that matters!

As Mom used to say, better out than in!

Hmmmmm But whilst you are, of course, entitled to your rants, I can't for the life in me work out what Nike and burning stuff has to do with this forum?

It's all too much for me in the morning!!!!!!!! Cheers m'dear.

in reply to borednow

Nothing. Nothing at all. ...however, you had been forewarned it didn't "directly" relate to PMR/GCA and you had the choice to either read it or ignore it. Just as we all have the choice to read (or not read) about people's garden's, grandchildren, outings to the seaside and their holidays... All of which I personally and throughly enjoy by the way! ...but again not directly related to PMR/GCA. I apologise if I have upset the apple cart on this beautiful morning! Have a fabulous rest of your day!

Use it to save up spoons for Saturday. Don't get mad and waste them!

in reply to scats

Oh crap... I was supposed to saving up spoons wasn't I? Not wasting energy on nitwits who are burning perfectly good athletic gear! : (

This kind of stuff can be infuriating in such an an inequitable world and we SHOULD get annoyed about all kinds of global issues - if we don't we have probably truly 'lost' ourselves. We can't let our illnesses annihilate our politics and opinions - and our determinations to express them - well that's what I think - so good on you Melissa - people here can also choose to read your blog or not

I'm now sorry I raised the issue. But the post I remember was in fact "frozen" to prevent more replies, and eventually I think it was deleted, although I'm not completely sure. Some one else may remember the content. I think it may have been when the illegal immigrants to the US were being separated from their children, some of them only babies, at the border. But there are so many issues, it could have been something else.

in reply to HeronNS

No, no... please don't be sorry. It was a good suggestion!

in reply to Rimmy

Namaste.

This is so true....blood boiling=induced stress=experience flare like symptoms!! So me!

I've experienced a couple of situations lately and I can physically feel my arms and legs starting to ache.Nothing to do with Nike though!!

in reply to Sandradsn

Good on you... save it for more important things!

Nike! Usually reasonable quality. Overpriced branding name. Typical commercial gambit!

in reply to

Way overpriced, considering what they pay their child employees!!!!! :O

in reply to

Wow! Ain't gunna get into that one Melissa! Wouldn't know the commercial link up! It can be a ruthless competitive world out there! Branding is such a load of boll----! Who can trust any so called product name now? Companies come & go. Nostalgic, once good names, are traded! Brainwashed we are from birth. Thank you! I've climbed back on my ranting horse!!

Yep, need tuition in hand signals, last time was for driving a car, but then it was a man with the flag walking in front and he couldn’t see them.🙄

Fortunately, almost immediately, cool heads prevailed and immediately began asking those who would destroy perfectly good clothes to donate them.

It’s not about his right to protest or what he’s protesting. It’s about choosing the very moment that we display our national flag and play our national anthem (a time by the way we traditionally pay respect to our veterans and our lost treasure. We often do a flyover in missing man formation to recognize our lost and their families). No thinking person finds racism or police brutality acceptable. However, no one has the right to make paying NFL patrons a captive audience while disrespecting us.

I respect your opinion.
