"My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk, Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains For tedious forum posts really stunk" (with apologies to John Keats) If the ancient Who's Whining list was reborn today, there would be many contenders for the top spots. But one family would, as a collective, challenge all-comers and beat them down by sheer volume alone. You know how it goes; you innocently traipse onto the forum for a quick read, see what the latest happenings are, when a sense of dread approaches. A wall of text. Complaints about whatever latest development has occurred. Harking back to some ill-defined golden-age when Things were Better (though when this was, who can say, as the moaning has been a constant from the start). Obsession with the most minor of issues, like the evils of people selling hand-made goods in shops cheaper than some others do - yes, clearly this is the great problem bringing society to its knees. Turning up late to whine about stuff long after it has already been resolved. And, of course, the multiple bloody posts in a row. AAARRRGGGHHHH! "Just skip their posts", you might say. That would make sense, yes. Unfortunately I have this affliction whereby I insist on reading everything and not putting anyone on forum ignore, even those who annoy the everloving shit out of me. That is my tragedy. They are my curse. Edit: Oh that voice... I'll be in my bunk

Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel, never ending or beginning, on an ever spinning reel

I was going to make a similar Weebly, but decided it wasn't worth the effort and I might get accused of being a bully again. I mean, yes, sometimes I am a raging asshole, but... hhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm... *changes topic*
