The fact that this thread has twice as many posts as assigned to the Shire... we are clearly glass half empty people.....

It is like this song by a band called TV2. "Kom lad os brokke os" (come lets complaint)
They go on to sing "it is what we do best" and "it is probably what makes us feel good" (maybe good should be best)

I assign those awful skin-tight knee-length hipster shorts that have been fashionable this summer.
They are so unbelievably unflattering that only one woman in a thousand can carry them off. I keep seeing young girls, with what would in normal clothes be perfectly decent figures, rendered completely lumpen and ghastly by these things. (Especially when phones, ciggie packets or wallets are shoved into the back pockets - shudder)
The designers who dreamt them up should be sent to Mordor too for their misogynistic unkindness. And, quite frankly, the best friends of the wearers, too, for letting them go out dressed like that without saying anything.

Let's say I'm bitter and seeking revenge, but you're assigned because I've already posted that somewhere in this thread. tgwbs assigned me for the same reason, but not for the same subject.

But I'd rather say that I just want my mum in Mordor with me.

Anyways...I assign my Anthro 10 prof. I normally wouldn't assign specific people to this place...

Well, you just did. Twice.

Umm...yeah. Anyways, but this one, he's just really, really...argh.

And I assign the deathly sweet smell of formalin. 1.0 M ammonia and formalin. The poor Mordorians.

I assign Lhuna for assigning one molar Ammonia to where I have been assigned before... I know I haven't been posting much on the 'downs lately, but I couldn't pass up a chemistry assignment (no pun int... ok, fine, I did it on purpose)

Caffiene addiction (and subsequent crash in the middle of my first World Religions class).

Lecture-based classes.

OTC pain killer tolerance.

When people unnecessarily sweeten iced tea. Green tea needs no mass quantities of sugar! It's like drinking syrup. Eew.

White dorm walls. That I'm not allowed to paint.

It's lovely when people say "nice boxers" to you. I don't see this vendetta people have against men showing boxers - I don't claim to understand fashion, but it's hardly a hideous sight.

On a more serious notes, I assign When People Are Kicked Out of Colleges. It doesn't seem fair that the second kindest, nicest, sweetest guy I know is forced to leave when complete idiots are allowed to stay. There's more to people than their grades. These poor selection processes are upsetting.

Eek gads! White walls are a threat to my existence, I truly understand where you are coming from.

Since they seem to want to keep you in a containment cell of torture that you cannot paint, try covering most of the walls with things you like, or best of all, a montage or collage of your favoured colours.
Don't try to become boxed in, when stuck, just make your own.
