    And then at the end of my day I got literary criticism!

    Sometimes she does seem to over think things.

    I dunno… I’ve always thought having (or offering) a safe and sympathetic place to rant was part of the deal.

    Unless it’s truly constant, to the detriment of the ranter’s mental health… which might need to be pointed out … but probably afterward…

    or includes any blame, or abuse of the listener… in which case it’s an attack, not a rant.

     

    I know we don’t see them every minute, and they’re “only” cartoon characters…

    but Bub hasn’t been portrayed as constantly negative, or as turning his pent-up rage on Betty when he rants.

    He’s not looking for psychoanalysis or criticism…

    but simply for some accepting arms.

    I think she’s being pretty harsh.

    No sense talking to Betty, she does not care anyway.

    Here’s a rant for you: I just found out that one of my checks to pay a bill, which I know I mailed out in plenty of time, apparently got lost in the mail. The company I sent it to quite rightly are charging me a “late fee”. This morning I called my bank to void the lost check, and they are charging me a whopping $32 to void it and I have to either go in the sign a form, or print out a form they E-Mail me, sign it and mail it back to them. So, I’m being charged from both ends of this, and I haven’t done anything wrong! Sheesh!

    Betty is someone I wouldn’t care for as a friend, much less a spouse.
