Feat of strength: I got over it.

Grievance: I think Seinfeld is about as funny as intestinal surgery.

Feat of strength: I consider this a sign of taste on my part.

 
Yesdog [TotalFark] 2007-12-23 01:04:23 PM  
Is this thread SaniFark 2.0 approved? Shouldn't grievances be referred to the Tattletale link?

Just want to make sure we're all kosher here, boss!

 
merlotguy [TotalFark] 2007-12-23 01:23:23 PM  
Got no grievances to air and my feats are fine.

 
tin_man [TotalFark] 2007-12-23 01:30:00 PM

cerberus9 2007-12-23 02:53:09 PM

Grievance: Goats getting herded off a cliff in Hawaii
Feat of strength: got mutton

/sorry

 
LowbrowDeluxe 2007-12-23 02:55:36 PM  
Grievance: Trying to read threads around here has become an excercise in troll-dodging, without the occasional boobie pic that once made it worthwhile.

Feat of Strength: Lifts Bevets entire collection of logical fallacies and tosses it out window.

 
CaptainJuan 2007-12-23 02:56:11 PM

Grievance: Darkfall when will you go beta!?!

Feat of Strength: American gladiators shall feel the pain this winter!!!

 
Gosub 2007-12-23 03:01:00 PM  
Grievances, eh? OK, I got one. The hatred for people who don't use their turn signal is already well known. But what I hate is when someone stops at the side of the road or at a parking lot curb and doesn't turn on their hazard lights. Gah! How hard is it. Just reach over and press the damn button. If I'm behind someone and they slow down, I don't know if you're just dropping someone off, getting ready for a turn (and not signaling), or what. If you're going to stop in the middle of traffic, the least you could do is let the rest of the world know that you're going to be more that a few seconds so we can drive around you.

Feat of strength? I'm too worn out from my grievance.

 
amiker77 2007-12-23 03:01:28 PM  
Grievance: My Psychic Friend has yet to tell me what the winning lottery numbers are.

Feat of Strength: I managed to get my festive pumpkin bread out of the oven without pulling a muscle!

 
Already Disturbed 2007-12-23 03:03:48 PM  
Grievance: The lack of a fatal disease that targets the stupid.

Feat of strength: Finally finished designing my wedding invitations, despite my dear wife-to-be's constant interruptions and "suggestions."

 
Boo Radley Jr. 2007-12-23 03:04:22 PM  
Boo Radley Jr.: I had a ton of grievences to share, but I suddenly lost my train of thought.

Um, one of my grievances is that fark has no spellchecker.

 
amiker77 2007-12-23 03:07:26 PM  
Already Disturbed:

Be careful licking the glue on those invitations...

 
Fireproof 2007-12-23 03:10:21 PM  
ThisIsNotSubtle: Grievance: My neighbors have one of those sound-and-light Christmas displays in their yard. I hate them. Passionately.

Grievance: You. Those things rule.

Feat of strength: Throws ThisIsNotSubtle out the second-floor window.

 
CravenMorehead 2007-12-23 03:10:50 PM  
I got a lot of problems with you people!

 
Needlessly Complicated 2007-12-23 03:11:55 PM  
My grievances are many and include working in a department that recently had voting for *a mascot*. *facepalms*

Feats of strength... uh... I managed to effectively control the Fist of Death (tm).

 
Mentat [TotalFark] 2007-12-23 03:12:57 PM  
Grievence: Herm Edwards, you are the worst coach ever.

Feat of Strength: I'm going to finish watching the Chiefs game even if it kills me.

 
Dinzie [TotalFark] 2007-12-23 03:13:24 PM  
I met this lawyer, we went out to dinner, I had the lobster bisque, we went back to my place, yada yada yada, I never heard from him again.

But you yada yada'd over the best part.

No, I mentioned the bisque.

 
what about bob 2007-12-23 03:13:53 PM  
can i really be the first so say this...

"now that you are here we have great strength of feet"

 
signaljammer 2007-12-23 03:13:59 PM  
G: That the spirit of comity native to this wonderful season may not extend throughout the year. Greed is not an ideology. An unwillingness to help the unfortunate doesn't represent a greater kindness.

FoS: Getting my youngest through college.

//Certain things will get better
//for our great nation, and the world at large.

//God Bless Everyone!!

 
yohansen [TotalFark] 2007-12-23 03:14:26 PM  
grievance: these pretzels are making me thirsty!

feat of strength: making a 14 hour drive from DC to St Louis in under 12.

//please don't tell the cops in virginia, maryland, west virginia, ohio, indiana, or illinois.

 
Jakevol2 2007-12-23 03:17:08 PM  
Mentat: Grievence: Herm Edwards, you are the worst coach ever.

Feat of Strength: I'm going to finish watching the Chiefs game even if it kills me.


Dude I had to stop watching halfway through the season. It just depressed me. All I have left ot enjoy this season is for the Pats to....you know.

 
JeffreyScott 2007-12-23 03:17:31 PM  
Grievance: The fact that both the Rep's and Dem's keep passing laws which chip away at our civil rights.

Grievance #2: The fact that only one candidate in the entire presidential field has talked about getting rid of the Patriot Act.

Feat of strength: Donating to the Ron Paul for President campaign.

 
studebaker hoch 2007-12-23 03:17:34 PM  
Oh no you don't, Heathen:

TODAY IS CHRISTMAS!!!!

As are all days between Halloween and New Years Eve. Haven't you been following "the war on Christmas"? We're winning!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

 
vonClogg 2007-12-23 03:18:11 PM  
I wish I were taller.

 
Laz Long [TotalFark] 2007-12-23 03:18:41 PM  
Grievance: For the last few days, it has been an hour drive just to get two miles to a restaurant for dinner.

Feat of strength: I haven't gone road rager on any of those idiots that are jamming the streets because they can't plan ahead.

 
Arkcon 2007-12-23 03:18:42 PM  
The wikipedia article on Festivus is funnier than this link.

Grievance: The really good deli by my apartment closed this year.

Feat of strength: I pulled my grade point average up one whole point.

 
Mentat [TotalFark] 2007-12-23 03:23:46 PM  
Jakevol2: Dude I had to stop watching halfway through the season. It just depressed me. All I have left ot enjoy this season is for the Pats to....you know.

It paid off with an awesome Dwayne Bowe TD. Of course, the Lions are driving now.

 
Gidget 2007-12-23 03:25:48 PM  
Grievance: 5 days off of work and I'm sick.
Feat of strength: Drinking anyway.

 
ScottMpls 2007-12-23 03:26:09 PM  
Grievance: You people are really starting to tick me off!

Feat of Strength: Keeping a full bottle of Stoli in the freezer unopened last night.

 
adam1805 2007-12-23 03:29:25 PM  
awesome Dwayne Bowe TD.

It's a festivus miracle!

Having read the Wiki article, I am pleased to discover that Festivus did not in fact originate with Seinfeld.

/hated that show
//none of the characters had any redeeming qualities
///can't watch a show if I don't care if the characters DIAF
////Does that count as Airing a Grievance?
//slashies = Feat of strength!

 
Baz the Spaz [recently expired TotalFark] 2007-12-23 03:32:30 PM  
Grievance: Celibacy

Feat of Strength: I somehow got her to go along with me buying this new laptop.

 
clevershark 2007-12-23 03:33:37 PM  
Grievance: "someone" bailed on me at the last minute for New Year's.

Feat of Strength: continuing my decreasingly-fat ass down to the gym every morning for the past few weeks so I can make "someone" regret regret that decision a few months down the line.

It'll all work out eventually...

 
TeaBagger 2007-12-23 03:33:40 PM  
Greivance:
Digg is now lame. I was with Digg when early when it was cool and very few knew about it.

Feat of Strength:
Lifting a Chevy Camaro with my foreskin

The fact that the characters were all douchebags was one of the central stories of the show (and the main point of the final episode).

That didn't make it any less funny.

 
TechieSidhe 2007-12-23 03:35:31 PM  
Grievance: Christmas traffic, made worse because people can't figure out where their turn signals are. The nicer the car, the less people use them. Go fig.

Feat of Strength: Donated my hair to Locks Of Love today.

 
clevershark 2007-12-23 03:35:44 PM  
I guess my resolution should be to watch my editing more closely when making comments in the future :)
