SOMEONE IS ABOUT TO GET MURDERED.
I highly recommend that nobody talks to me in person until after the move.
I think this is the 1.253 millionth time I've said "I'm GOING to LOSE it!". Tonight, I was the closest ever to actually losing it!
I am so LIVID I can barely even function. I just about pounded my computer tower because it took too long to boot up just before typing this.
So, the pet bylaw right? This was the meeting to either accept or reject it. No suspense - it was accepted. But in the events is a question period, and I said "I don't understand why, in addition to changing number of dogs and cats, we're no longer allowing reptiles and limiting small caged mammals to 2". The property manager, the biggest pompous ass in the entire world, says "do you know about ferrets? They stink." and our strata president says "a ban on reptiles isn't uncommon". WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT HAVE TO FUCKING DO WITH A FUCKING THING!!!!!!!!!????????????
THE BYLAW DOESN'T SAY "UP TO TWO FERRETS", IT ENCOMPASSES ANYTHING IN A CAGE THAT FEEDS IT'S BABIES MILK. JUST BECAUSE BANNING REPTILES ISN'T UNCOMMON DOESN'T MEAN WE HAVE TO DO IT!!!!! I also don't give a FUCKING FUCK that my pets are grandfathered, because that is SO FAR from the point it's not even funny. The point is, anyone who wants to come into the building can't if they have 3 hamsters, or a chameleon, or some gerbils, or an iguana, or a few guinea pigs, or a bearded dragon, or some pet rats, or yes, a long-tailed grass lizard like I have. IT'S UNREASONABLY LIMITING WHO CAN BUY IN THIS BUILDING, AND THE BYLAW HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BENEFITING THE OWNERS OF THE BUILDING. When was the last time you heard of human death by third rabbit? building damage by iguana? excessive noise by family of gerbils? IT'S COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT! THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON FOR IT. IT ONLY HAPPENED BECAUSE ONE OR TWO DICTATORS DECIDED IT WOULD BE FUN TO PISS ME OFF.
The only good things that happened at this meeting was allowing two dogs, and voting down a bylaw that only one person wanted- the PRESIDENT of strata council. She worked for months on this because it was important to HER. The Sauna issue, on the other hand, important to all members EXCEPT her, is put on the backburner. WHAT A FUCKING BITCH.
On the topic of the roommate issue, WASN'T IT CONVENIENT THAT SHE STARTED TRYING TO CHANGE THE RENTAL BYLAWS THE SECOND SHE FOUND OUT I WANTED TO BRING IN A ROOMMATE?
I don't know if they hate me because I'm fat, hate me because I'm bald, hate me because of my ambiguous sexual orientation, or hate me because I'm just so damn much better than them, but it is FUCKING UNPROFESSIONAL for them to hold any of that against me. People might defend their reasons for changing the entire pet bylaw, but we all know it's because the president of the strata knew I had four guinea pigs and a lizard in addition to my two dogs. THERE COULD BE NO OTHER REASON!!!!
WELL, YOU'RE GETTING WHAT YOU WANTED, FUCKERS, I'M MOVING OUT. I HOPE THAT THE NEXT PERSON THAT MOVES IN IS A FUCKING GANG MEMBER WITH 10 ROOMMATES THAT YOU ARE TOO FUCKING SCARED OF TO MESS WITH.
I'm sorry guys, but I'm just in a really bad mood. You know what? I'M NOT SORRY. THIS STRATA COUNCIL IS A FUCKING DICTATORSHIP, AND THE ONLY PEOPLE IN THIS BUILDING THAT CAN BE HAPPY ARE THOSE THAT DON'T GET INVOLVED. Everything is don't ask - don't tell, everything is reactive - not proactive, and the only people the strata council cares about is themselves, and that is NOT what a strata council is about. A strata council is supposed to do what's best for ALL OWNERS, not the two or three of them that sit around the table once a month and make fun of people behind their backs, and then pour on the coals in the last few months before the AGM to make it look like they've done something worthwhile all year.
AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON OUR NEW SON OF A BITCH PROPERTY MANAGER. HOLY FUCK. I'VE NEVER MET A MORE ABBRASIVE HUMAN BEING IN MY LIFE. I knew I hated him from the first meeting we had with him. I still can't fucking believe that he thought that the scent of ferrets had a FUCKING THING TO DO WITH MY QUESTION! I would rather live with a fucking houseful of ferrets than live with him!!!! THE MOMENT HE SAID THAT WAS THE MOMENT I WENT INTO AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE WHERE I GOT UP, SMASHED HIS HEAD IN WITH THE CHAIR, PUNCHED THE STRATA PRESIDENT RIGHT IN THE FACE, AND SET THE ROOM ON FIRE. Unfortunately, I just sat quietly when all I wanted to do is make a scene, but you know, the minute you make a scene is the minute you know that several people start making fun of you behind your back, so at least you can live with some dignity if you submit. Seriously though, I am so tempted to take dramatic action to bring pain and suffering to the lives of those that brough pain and suffering to mine.
HOLY FUCK GUYS, I SWEAR TO GOD THE NEXT PERSON THAT PISSES ME OFF IS GOING TO HAVE TO GET OBJECTS SURGICALLY REMOVED FROM THEIR ASS... AND BY ASS, I MEAN LOWER INTESTINE, BECAUSE THAT'S HOW FAR I'M GOING TO TELL THEM TO SHOVE IT. THERE NEEDS TO BE A WORD MORE POWERFULLY NEGATIVE THAN FUCK, BECAUSE THAT'S JUST NOT CUTTING IT RIGHT NOW. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRUUGHHHHHHHH!!!
