Reader Rants – IOTW Report

Reader Rants

You know, The Bullpen is great, but it ain’t enough.

I think the readers need a place to vent, a place to complain, a place to pull up their pants to theirĀ armpits and give everyone the what for.

I’m going to put a widget in the upper left hand side of the sidebar from time to time to let everyone know there is a new rant. And I don’t care what the rant is. It could be about the guy who cut you off coming out of Dunkin Donuts, or it could be about the bad haircut you just got. Sometimes you just needĀ to Howard Beale.

Send rants to BigFurHat.mail@gmail.com and put “reader rant” in the subject line.

(BigFurHat reserves the right to edit, or not publish, the rant if it could potentially open iOTWreport to any legal trouble.)

  1. Maybe Brad can tell us what pissed him off last time. That he wants to “rag doll” someone who probably is younger and stronger and would kick his ass up and down the East coast.
    This is like the 6th time someone said something that he wanted to fight them. Which is funny cause he is in his late 50’s. And isn’t the tough guy he was 20 years ago.

  2. I saw a map of Taiwan on the Travel Channel the other night, and it had Taipei labeled as “Taipei, China”. When did the PRC occupy Taiwan? Or alternately, when did the Travel Channel throw Taiwan under the bus? Is this now standard policy on TV? I feel a rant coming on.

  3. Seems to be different comments in two different places for the same post. I read these comments here, went back to home page, noticed a BFH comment on “Reader Rants” that I hadn’t seen, so clicked it, and went to a different set of comments. Same thing happened on another post. Twilight Zone? Is that normal? Did I miss a memo?

    Great idea for “Reader Rants”, I’m SURE my husband will appreciate you for it!

  4. Geri – what you’re seeing is the result of naming a post the same as a page.
    Some people are commenting on the PAGE (the area you access through the menu bar and where the rants will reside.)
    Some people are commenting here, a post about the page. (are you sufficiently confused yet?)

    So, in the sidebar, the recent comments are showing two different commenting spots both with the same name… or something.

    Don’t worry, nothing’s broken.

  5. Thirdtwin,
    I don’t think seeing “Taipei, China” is that unusual, especially in Taiwan, since they have always called themselves ‘China’, or “Republic of China,” being the remnants of the original rulers in Peking before the Reds took over. We’re the ones who can’t call them ‘China’, right? It pisses the Reds off when we do. But they do it all the time in Taipei when Beijing isn’t watching.

    But don’t let me interrupt a good rant! šŸ™‚

  6. I like Brad, a lot (I’m not gay). But we know he is tuff. A lot of people are tough
    But we are his friends. Don’t threaten us with violence. Tell us what we did wrong and we’ll try not to go there again. I think Brad is sensitive to not knowing how to
    Do some things like spell. So he gets pissed and wants to beat people up.
    But. Just tell us. Hay…. Lay off the you can’t spell shit or I’ll kick your ass.
    Again I know people like Brad. You have to walk on eggshells to not offend them. Or they will beat you up.

  7. There’s a few comments here that I truly don’t know what the hell they are talking about…Brad/michelle/fatass/stranded/whatever……can you hire Whoopi to moderate this?
