Students who expect me to lead them through an online course by the hand, and don't take responsibility for their own learning by asking questions NOT answered by the CPS and schedule of due dates can fuck off.
And now for the biggie: my insurance company (Golden Rule) can FUCK the FUCKING FUCKITY FUCK OFF with extreme prejudice. Not only are they still FUCKING draging their FUCKING PUSTULENT ASSES on paying my hospiital claim for premature labor, BUT NOW THEY'RE FUCKING WITH MY SON'S HELATH.
He has to have RSV shots once a month. The hospital social worker set those up for us. The pharmacy called the insurance company, who said that yes, they do cover that shot. THEY FUCKING NEGLECTED TO FUCKING INFORM THE PHARMACY THAT THEY DON'T FUCKING COVER THE SYNAGIS SHOTS THROUGH ANY PHARMACY BUT ONE, and REFUSE TO FUCKING COVER THE FUCKING $1200/SHOT x 2 MONTH BILL THAT THEY IMPLIED THEY WOULD COVER!
The pharmacy that had been supplying the shot has been wonderful, and has worked with me as much as anyone could. They told me that, had fucking Golden Rule fucking told them that they covered the shot but not from that pharmacy in the first fucking place, they'd have arranged to have it sent through the one pharmacy the fucking retarded fucking insurance company does fucking cover.
GOLDEN RULE CAN FUCK THE FUCKITY FUCKING FUCK OFF WITH ROLLED UP MEDICAL CLAIMREJECTION FORMS DIPPED IN RANCID HABANERONACHO CHEESE FOR LUBE!!
The incredible excess of STUPID I seem to be seeing these past few weeks can FTFO:
- Every fucking special snowflake out there who has to have their own particular pussy issue taken care of. If we wrap children in psychic bubble wrap so they don't get their feewings huwt, they will never grow up. I'm tired of the wussification of my country.
A related gripe: the people demanding "banning" of any food they cannot eat or that they are afraid of: if we banned every food that anyone could possibly be allergic to, we'd all starve.
Look, I have sympathy for people with food allergies. I know people with celiac disease (which is actually different from an allergy, in my understanding). It sucks. They have to read labels like crazy. But you don't see anyone agitating that bread be banned just because they cannot eat it.
- the "if we just take money away from rich people and give it to everyone else" people are also in the "stupid" boat.
- All the conspiracy-theorists who necessitated a SECOND swearing-in of Obama because Chief Justice Roberts happened to muff one word can FTFO. With tinfoil hats.
- Everyone who even JOKES about "where's my bailout" - please get into the line forming on the right. Oh, that line? It's for the spaceship going to the SUN. You have officially been voted off the planet.
- Special snowflake students who barge in at the beginning of my class (that they are not taking) so they can buttonhole me and demand to know my office hours so they can then come in and share their special snowflakehood with me can FTFO. (Except, this particular special snowflake has not shown up, which is kind of a relief).
- Changes in the IRS laws that make me have to dink around with my retirement dollars can FTFO. Look, idiots: I'm trying to be Responsible by not spending all of my money on shiny things and entertainment. DON'T MAKE IT HARDER for me to be Responsible. That's just stupid.
- People who drive 15 miles below the speed limit, weaving slowly along the street, as they jabber into their cell phones can FTFO. HANG UP AND DRIVE, ASSHOLE!
HH - I was going to kvetch about my own medical insurance gripe, but you know? I go shut up now. I really hope these self-rectal examiners get this straightened out for you.
w/v - ingizeda - an obscure Cuban cuss word that Val has amazingly not yet used in the FFOT.
HH--WTF!? They suck. I'm so sorry your son has to go through all that (and you, as the result).
Ricki--I student taught at one of the most accommodating elementary schools in the area, and even they don't ban possible allergens. They set aside a table in the cafeteria where you can't bring common allergens (e.g. peanuts). Nothing beyond that.
First off, I'd like to give a FUCK YEAH! to the D.C. police for all the work they had to do this week. Also to the Metro workers b/c they were very helpful to everyone yesterday when I was there.
Of course, I'd like to send out a FO to the person who thought it was a great idea to make the Metro tix "commemorative" by putting the President's face on them. Creepy and I felt as if I were in a dictatorship where the leader's face is EVERYWHERE. As a side FO, whoever told us to put too much money on the ticket can FO b/c I wound up not having the pleasure of watching the Metro gate keep the ticket after my last trip. (He came home with me--aaaah!)
If as rumored Prez indeed O is ordering a reversal of the Mexico City Policy, that can totally FTFO. My taxes pay for enough shit I don't support already, and the timing of it is a slap in the face. If it's not true, the "unidentified" person spreading the rumor should FO and STFU.
WV: "croms" The face on my Metro ticket totally gave me the croms and I wanted to barf.
That ad that says something like "first rule of a flat stomach" and then has two gut-photos - one of someone with a saggy stomach, and someone with a more toned stomach - can FTFO, because those photos are creepy as hell.
captcha: partimmo. The portion of a stomach that you don't want to see a photo of.
Corporate executives who give instructions on matters of which they know ABSOLUTELY FUCKING ZILCH can fucking fuck right fucking fuckity fuck off with a diseased Blackberry dipped in bubbling limburger cheese while being roasted alive by flesh eating bannas.
(My FO is nothing like HH's, but I had to get it off my chest.)
And a FUCK YEAH! to the office deputy who told me to ignore the blatherings of those asspie munching fuckwads, and do it my way.
Of course they wait to the end of the week to piss me off! DoD/Navy IT have earned my FTFO this week.
I just don't get it. When there is a problem, instead of applying logic to come up with the best way to work through an issue and still be able to use the greater part of the technology available to us, they nuke shit. Members of Obama's staff were recently quoted as saying that the technology in the White House is like going from an Xbox 360 to an Atari. That's not because the gov't doesn't buy new shit, it's because all the freakin' security greatly handicaps what we can and cannot use.
Recently they killed the use of all external thumb drives or USB-based storage devices. So. How the fuck do I get photos from my camera to the computer for my fekkin' magazine now, huh? There are workaround, of course, but why the fuck does it have to be so extreme? Every fucking Antivirus program out there has an autoscan feature. Think of that, IT "gurus?"
Now we can't send any hyperlinks in e-mails. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but the majority of our e-mail traffic internally are hyperlinks to files on our shared drives. Not sending hyperlinks fucks with our workflow in ways that I cannot easily describe.
I guess that's what we get for embracing technology. Even if it's decade-old technology.
Cullen, I hear that DoD is putting out an emergency contract for slide rulers, paper, and pencils. Knowing your luck, there's another one being prepared for 35mm film.
BTW, we have the same issue on USB devices, including GPS units. Arrrgghhh!!!
He made it to 17.5, which is not too shabby, really, for a cat. We had him almost as long as we've had the kid. Could possibly have eked him out a little longer but it would not have been kind. When the kidneys fail that's pretty much it.
Orange toms are the sweetest cats in the world, and hell-on-wheels at the vet's office.

there. I feel better now.
Well, I'd just sound like a petulant ass whining about anything after that.
God. I can only hope that this situation gets better. Insurance companies are the worst.
w/v: verse: What Iowahawk displayed mastery of today.
I was talking about HH, but I feel equally squished by Ricki. I had a good week.
Congressional Democrats can FUCK THE FUCK OFF AND KISS MY CUBAN ASS.

There should be a standing FTFO for insurance companies. Shit-slinging life-force-draining rat bastards.
WV: tenop - the guy who sings harmony with the soppano.
After HH and Ricki, I have nothing of import, so I'll just say
ICCFOAD*
SSCFOAD**
and of course:
CCFOAD
WV: undismol - what my week has been compared to yours
* Insurance companies
** Special snowflakes
I thought of another, very petty, one:
That ad that says something like "first rule of a flat stomach" and then has two gut-photos - one of someone with a saggy stomach, and someone with a more toned stomach - can FTFO, because those photos are creepy as hell.
captcha: partimmo. The portion of a stomach that you don't want to see a photo of.

And a FUCK YEAH! to the office deputy who told me to ignore the blatherings of those asspie munching fuckwads, and do it my way.
And Jersey Boy can FTFO, for reals. What an ingizeda.
w/v - pyropert - a very outgoing arsonist
Of course they wait to the end of the week to piss me off! DoD/Navy IT have earned my FTFO this week.

My cat can you-know-what for not living as long as I do.
Whatever was stopping these beautiful people from being decent human beings on and before 1/19/2009.

How mean whatever it is, was.
Sorry about your cat, Laura's daughter. :(
I'm also sorry to hear that, Laura's Daughter.
It DOES suck that they don't live as long as we do.
He made it to 17.5, which is not too shabby, really, for a cat. We had him almost as long as we've had the kid. Could possibly have eked him out a little longer but it would not have been kind. When the kidneys fail that's pretty much it.
