Hi it's Jyl Forsyth. Everyday I wake up, thanking God for another day! I count my blessings and then plan on making it another great day. WELL...........as it turns out.......little things can start to happen.....and before ya know it......YOU NEED TO STOP and count to 10.......yeah, like that really works. So, I decided to give us all a place to VENT.......a safe place to let it all out. What bugs you? What is driving you to your last nerve? Get it out!! Let's support each other so we know we aren't alone!!
On my way to work and no cereal! An empty box?
The last person to use my car. . . that's right, left it on EMPTY!!
Once again, my creepy neighbor runs over my bricks every time he turns in his driveway! ARGH!!
Then my husband locks me out one second after I'm gone (I forgot my phone!)

Rant and Rave with Jyl Forsyth!
Go ahead, let it all out - the good, the bad, and the ugly! You know you want to!

I want to share that
my fiance just left me for his secretary. I wanted him to hire a man for the job because I know how these things happen in the workplace. He was so certain he would never let anything happen. Well. He was wrong. Women, get your man to hire a man for his secretarial needs. They spend more time with your man than you do and it's bound to happen. I am so sad that I have to start over now and find someone new to share my life with. I couldn't trust him again even if he did come back. Thanks for letting me share. I may be back.

animals in cages
hurts my soul. I wish their was a better way to keep them. Stinky pet stores, should be eliminated. No dog should have to live that way.
10/23/2007 11:44PM
people who do not
listen get under my skin. Like they interrupt when you're talking and then talk about the same thing only about them! They never let you tell your story. I work with a guy like this and no one wants to tell him anything anymore but we are all too chicken to say this to is face. We all listen to you and read your web so maybe he'll get the hint! peace out. that felt good.

As they say....
You can't live with them and you can't shoot them. My husband gets on my nerves sometimes, I feel I just want to strangle him. This was a great idea to let some rage out. I get home before my husband somedays, not all the time because I am going back to school. I feel guilty because he sometimes has to make his own dinner. To make up for it on the days that I do get home before him I try to have dinner ready. Well he comes home, I ask him if he's ready to eat, and that's when he says "I'm really not hungry." So much for feeling guilty, he just doesn't get it. I guess it's that care giving emotion that women are blessed with. Over all I still deeply love him, lucky for him!!!
10/24/2007 2:19PM
zits....I hate my zits.
my mom took me to the dr but they are still there. kids make fun of me for my skin.
10/24/2007 2:20PM
getting layed off!!
I lost my job last week and so far can not even collect unemployment. I am really scared that I'm going to end up on the streets.
10/24/2007 2:25PM
BAD NEWS everyday
on the news bugs me. Murder, death, destruction....can't we have a day of no BAD NEWS!!! I watch the news to know what's going on in the world and then say to myself, do I need to know this today? Just one day, I'd like to turn on the news and nothear something bad. That's why I love 99.5..it always makes me feel better. Keep it up guys and gals!
10/24/2007 3:13PM
PEOPLE!!
I own my own Lawn and Landscape company. RRRR!!! Sometimes it is frustrating when we bid a job and people look at us like we are asking them for their life.. They just don't understand the labor that is involved in some of the work we do.. Get with the program people!! We also do tree's and they think we can just cut it and drop it.. Yeah right!! It just gets under my skin when they bicker about our prices. Which are very competitive. Thanks for letting me vent. Good to know there is a place out there to vent. I'll be back.
10/24/2007 7:20PM
feel for you man
the kind of people you are talking about drive me crazy. they nickel and dime you to death while they don't have to. it's like a game to them. ggrrrr! I paint so I know exactly where you are coming from.
10/24/2007 10:51PM
not knowing the secret
sound when I get through!! DARN!! $100 is still nice, but I froze!! this is a small problem I realize!! I love you 99.5!

One of the biggest. . .how do you treat YOUR child?
When I go to a store, whether it be a department store or a grocery store, and I see a parent yelling at their child! First of all public humiliation for that child is something the parent doesn't even consider, seemingly that is their purpose. Children don't like to be dragged to every store - so unless you are taking them to the toy department, or have it worked out so that the reward comes fast for them going with you - LEAVE THEM HOME! It's not their fault that they get antsy shopping - THEY DON'T WANT TO BE THERE! Don't yell, scream, hit, or degrade your children - ever - in public or not! Be positive with them - it will get much more positive results!
10/25/2007 4:14PM
treating your CHILD
thank you. I feel the same and also when it comes to dog walkers. If your dog is tired, take him home. Don't drag him behind you. Or make him run to keep up with you. Some little dogs are tortured when their owners walk them and expect them to keepup with them. Some love and compassion in parenting both Children and dogs is important.

a fly in the salad
at what used to be my favorite restaurant in Royal Oak. Anyone know of any good Italian restaurants in the area?
10/25/2007 9:13PM
lazy workers
I hate the fact that when things need to be done at work. It seems I'm the only going the extra mile. That I have to pick up the slack for all the lazy's!!!!
10/25/2007 9:31PM
Jennifer Granholm
If I start, I won't stop. jobless in monroe
10/25/2007 10:08PM
no job in Redford
it's tough. I'm not a Granholm fan either. Wish she'd have stayed in Canada and left us in Michigan alone.
10/25/2007 11:19PM
guys
they can't make up their minds as to what they want and don't recognize a good thing when they have it....
10/26/2007 12:49PM
What bugs me...
... is being away from the woman I love.
10/26/2007 2:21PM
concert ticket SCALPERS
I agree with Garth, something needs to be done. They buy up all the tickets and good seats and then re-sell them for hundreds of dollars. I have a little girl that can't go see Hannah Montana because we can't afford the ticket scalpers prices. It'sa racket and something needs to be done about it. sad/mad mom. Nothing hurts more than when your child hurts.
10/26/2007 7:43PM
that I have to worry about
what someone might do to my childs halloween candy. Back when I was a kid, we didn't worry about this stuff.
10/26/2007 9:40PM
teeny tootsie roll pops
that is ONE thing that should NOT be made smaller. Bigger yes....smaller, heavens no. I'm excited about Josh Gracin Weds night at Coyote Joes. I'm hoping to win the best costume contest for $1000.00.

Corporate Greed
American workers (what's left of us anyway) are just slaves to greedy CEOs and corporate boards of large American businesses. The rich get richer, and the little man slaves his life away, always wondering if he's going to have enough money to enjoy a few too short years of retirment. I was layed off from my job as an automotive engineer on the very day after I read in the paper that the CEO of our company was given a $20 million bonus ON TOP of the 25 million a year he makes already. Who is worth this kind of money, especially in American AUTOMOTIVE? Who needs this kind of money? Better to ask...who needs these kinds of CEOs. Kick 'em to the curb, I say, along with Jenny G., Hillary, Obama and the rest of the idiots who want to keep taking more money out of our paychecks!
10/28/2007 7:37AM
layed,laid,leied???
My first peeve is the 'layed" in 'layed off" is actually spelled 'laid". No wonder you're unemployed!!
10/29/2007 4:31PM
what irks me
Hey Jyl, Dee here, I just have one pet peeve and its people who leave their kids in the car while they go into a gas station or a store. Even though it may be only a few min. that your gone, its still enough time for some creep to take your kids!!!! Are they not important enough???? Take the time people and unbuckle the seat belt, take your kids with you, you'll be very thankful you did!!!!
10/29/2007 6:09PM
thanks for
the awesome pet peeves and what bugs you. I relate so much to what has been said. As far as the spelling critic.....what a compassionate sweetheart you are. Everyone butchers the English language and makes spelling errors when they blog. Must you be so hateful over something so harmless. Lighten up!! You annoy me!
10/29/2007 7:07PM
mean people
people who do nothing but criticize others.
10/29/2007 8:48PM
Rude Drivers
Biggest pet peeve is people who tailgate and talk on the phone. HANG UP AND DRIVE - Save the phone calls for HOME! So many times I see people on the phone, tailgating and pushing. Don't you realize how dangerous that is? Leave a few minutes earlier andyou won't have to be so rude!
10/29/2007 9:02PM
PEOPLE WHO DON"T
USE DEODERANT. Other peoples BO makes me sick to my stomache.

Calender? What Calender?
WTH?! Why is it WEEKS before halloween the starts started flooding the shelves, aisles and windows with CHRISTMAS stuff?! Doesn't anyone in retail own a calender? Have they not noticed Halloween comes first. Can't we at LEAST make it through Halloween? Why must we see Ghosts and Goblins shunted to the clearance rack in Mid October while the shelves of polka dancing POLAR BEARS and Hokey Pokey Santa start the Christmas season?? Next Year I expect to see them next to the flags and fireworks for Independence day.
10/30/2007 8:06AM
Calender Anyone?
Freaking retailers who have insisted on shoving christmas down our throats even earlier this year than last! WHy is it Halloween Costumes, ghosts and goblins are shoved to Clearance in mid october while we make room for polka dancing Polar bears and Hokey-Pokey Santa?! Doesn't anyone in retail own a calender? Let me summarize... FIRST Halloween, THEN Thanksgiving Christmas and the other religious holidays. Is it REALLY necessary to start blaring Christmas carols at 6 pm on Halloween?!? I suppose next year I'll be seeing elves and reindeer fighting for shelf space with Flags and fireworks! <sigh>
10/30/2007 9:34AM
Hey Jyl...
...what bugs me is me. I can be so slow. I never realized how different men and womens value system are. Sometimes I really feel like a stoopid boy (I don't think I spelled that right)
10/30/2007 2:04PM
KNOW IT ALL'S
BUG ME. At a special function the other night, one lady knew everything about EVERYTHING! Why can't some people NOT have an opinion about just ONE thing. OR if they do, just listen.
10/30/2007 8:05PM
Like I said earlier, the lot
at the end of my street is full of Christmas trees. I just got my pumpkin yesterday. It's crazy!!
10/30/2007 8:26PM
TATTLE TALES AT WORK
enough said!! You know who you are.
10/31/2007 9:22AM
Smokers
I don't care if you smoke, but if you do stop throwing your butts on the ground or out the car window on the road. Stop trashing our cities and towns. Keep America clean.
10/31/2007 2:36PM
smokers are insane
wait until you get old and develop emphasema. Your body is your temple, why do you want to destroy such a beautiful gift from God?
