    Default Rant and rave here

    It's exactly what the title says: rant and rave to your heart's delight.

    Another feature on b's heard page is the rant rail. Readers tell us what's pissing them off, what's made their day and what gets under their skin.

    The best part of the rant rail? The comments are printed anonymously. BUT remember that while your username won't be attached to your rant in the paper, it'll still be in this thread beside all your ranting.

    If you rather keep your identity a complete secret from other readers, you can always e-mail them to heard@bthesite.com or text them to 70701 with the keyword RANT (standard text messaging rates may apply).

    Ok, I thought of one. My husband wants me to go see the Alice and Wonderland Movie. That's fine, but I think I am going to take hearing protectors to put in my ears. Why do the movies theaters have to turn the sound up so loud! Do they think everyone is deaf? It is very uncomfortable and it takes me about a half hour to get used to it. I understand, "surround sound, bla bla bla" but it is so loud to me that I hardly ever go to see a movie. I dont know; maybe it is just me.... That's the best i could do - thanks...

    sue, when you engage it that only encourages them to do it more.

    Every time I help buy my son a car, he 1) puts a loud sound system in it and then 2) wrecks the car. Can you legally put a 28-year-old up for adoption?...

    Why is the 1st person at a red light the last one to see it change green?

    I personally take a breath and look both ways after the light turns green,that would be for the a-holes that run red lights. I taught my daugthers to do the same,it's called defensive driving.

    I've been taking defensive driving classes for 37 years for my job. I know a cell phone gabbing, console searching, child admonishing, doofus when I see one.

    Why do pantyhose run within 5 minutes of putting them on?? It doesn't matter if they're the buck-a-pair kind from Walmart of $25.00 a pair Versache hose (yes- I actually paid $25 for a pair of panty hose thinking I could wear them more than once. I'm an idiot).

    An Uncle worked for Dupont in the development of Nylon, he gave Mom one of the first pairs, they lasted over FIVE years. Repeated washings had turned them white but they never ran.

    They long since perfected planned obsolescence and sold it to you with word "Sheer"

    Why would Brooklyn, NY allow these nasty roadside billboards to exist, when they prompt such questions as: "Hey, Daddy. Is that an a s shole?"

    Disgusting spitters. It's a minefield of spit out there.

    I can't stand waiting for the bus and see all the spitters, they remind me of dogs marking their territory.

    After the killer whale incident, I am totally done with going to see any of these kinds of shows: whales, dolphins. It is horrible the way these wild creatures are treated. After that trainer died, it finally hit me. And I think it is terrible that Sea World restarted their Killer Whale Show. It is all about the money!!! They should be ashamed...

    That's my rant of the day...

    Whales belong in the ocean.
