16 Realistic Reasons You Rant

Kanye West, Mel Gibson, The lady from the Orbit commercials... we all rant, but why? Here are a few reasons why. READ IT OR ELSE BECAUSE WE WORKED HARD ON THIS AND IT WOULD BE RUDE NOT TO. List by Danielle "Ranty Pants" Steinberg and Natalie "Ranter-in-Cheif" Benson

1. You're "Hangry"

Hungry + Angry = Hangry. From the womb to the tomb, we're all guilty of these carb-deprived meltdowns.

2. Holla' for Dolla' Bills

Whether you're owed money or owe money, the rant goes both ways.

(But if you're owed money, send Landlord Pearl.)

3. You Jam Out... In Traffic.

Is it just us, or should the slowest time of day be called something other than RUSH HOUR?!

4. Re-hashing The Same Fight. For the 80th Time.

WHAT DON'T YOU GET ABOUT "WE'VE BEEN OVER THIS?"

Double points if this is with a significant other or family member.

5. You Lost At Something. (Doesn't Matter What)

But it was totally unfair because they cheated and you're not responsible for your actions if they don't admit that you should have won! (<-- must say in one breath.)

6. You've Been Ready to Leave. Since Yesterday.

When rolling your eyes and pointing at your watch has failed, what else can you do besides rant?

7. You're Tired.

This rant is especially dangerous for those around you, but you can always deny it later because you were "half asleep."

8. You're Poor.

Not to be confused with #2 (Heh, #2), being broke is different than being owed money. When you're broke, you have no money to lend out in the first place, and you're NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT.

9. You (Or Someone Else) Broke Something Important/Expensive.

THAT WAS IRREPLACEABLE. (To sooth this anger, start singing "irreplaceable" by Beyonce. It won't make you feel better, but you can't yell when you're singing.)

10. You Can't Find Something.

Phone, money, where you hid the last cookie... INFURIATING. Eventually your mind turns to... "WHO TOOK IT?!"

11. You're Jealous.

But you'll never admit it. Don't worry, this stays between us. AND IF YOU TELL ANYONE...

12. Your Boss Was... Bossy.

Unless it's an HR violation. Then please (PLEASE) tell me.

13. You Don't Like The Way You Look

Your mom once told you that there were more fish in the sea. BUT SOMETIMES YOU FEEL LIKE A WHALE AND WHO COULD LOVE A WHALE? Much like this gif, you're probably overreacting.

14. Someone (us, in the previous example) Told You To Stop "Overreacting"

Telling someone to "calm down" or "chill out" is the easiest way to fire them up. SO DON'T.

15. Someone Insults Your Best Friend

Via funnyjunk.com

YOU CAN'T SAY THAT ABOUT HER, ONLY I CAN.

16. Finally & Most Importantly, You Get a Bad Present.

I'D RATHER YOU GET ME NOTHING. OR AT LEAST NOT "STORE CREDIT UPON RETURN."
