See, the problem is that generally ranting requires a nice bunch of anger and stress to be misplaced... Remember that time I was ranting about "Glial Cells" and shaking and **** at Kung-Fu fatty? Ya, that was when I was in pretty intense repressed gender turmoil. Now that I'm perfectly happy, the best I can do is write enlightened tracts on my own personal stances, and it seems that people aren't as entertaining with what I write when I'm not describing how maimed something should be at my hands or using extremely colorful metaphors for "rubbish" and just generally being a meanie.
As for gas prices; what was everyone expecting? It's gas. You run out eventually. Everyone should quit making such a big stink and switch to a replenishable fuel source like ethanol.
