In honor of the "holiday" and before we begin the feats of strength, we must first air our grievances.
It consists of each person lashing out at others and the world about how they have been disappointed in the past year
I will start:
"I've got a lot of problems with you people who start a thread about a woman and don't give us pics of the woman"
is with posters who don't have a sense of humor and hit the report button.
Mike Rossi.
People who run for a living being out spoken on social media.
I don't know, I have a lot of grievances. How much time have you got?

All the time in the world...for now...LOL
Another grievance. RDs who don't ban obvious cheaters. For that matter, RDs who don't go thru results to catch these people.
Runners who don't smile when running. Nothing worse than running past peeps who look angry when out doing something they supposedly love. More smiles people!
I have a problem with people without a sense of humor.
Ironically, my gripe is about people who gripe too much.
I have issues with all of those whose names I cannot drop in a single LR post because they get moderated. You know who you are.
Most everyone knows one of my top gripes...those people that wear their Boston Marathon jacket everywhere. It's like "we get it, you ran Boston" I mean, it's always appropriate to wear your bright orange Boston Marathon to a funeral, because, after all, you ran Boston!

Democrats / Socialists are ruining the middle class.
And I'd like to name the posters that turn every thread into a political rant. Just put down your weapons for a day or two, please.
People who still put 'tard at the end of a word.....
I got a lot of problems with the women who got me banned from my local Y...
You don't have enough time in the day to listen to my grievances
Festivus is about airing grievances, not putting them away. What do you think this is, Yom Kippur? By the way, I slept with your wife.
Runners who smile when running. Nothing worse than running past peeps who smile when out doing something they should hate.
People who blog about their stupid lives as though someone cares. Oh and those douchebags who use the word peeps.

Agreed. +3:11:45
Ultra guys.
Drivers who cut in front of you only to make a turn a moment later
Race directors who give a cash prize to the last place runner while the winner gets socks. Still bitter about that one but it feels better to air the grievance
Coaches who run with there teams instead of coaching
The lady in the office that complains about her weight but eats a bagel for breakfast, mac and cheese for lunch and sweets all day
The other lady in office that heats fish in the microwave
My biggest gripe is the trend to start school later. Some crazy mom and her kids who are addicted to their iphones and can't wake up on time feel the need to make the rest of us suffer.
Last grievance is the lack of common language in training. People still get confused all of the time
