All the rage: the women who meet to scream into the night
The Guardian (UK) ^ | 19 Nov 2022 | Samantha Lock

Exhausted and overwhelmed, Gretchen Miller felt the frustration of the past three years rise up within her. On a whim the 54-year-old from Sydney posted a message to her local community Facebook group. “Does anyone else feel like screaming?” she asked.

The responses poured in. “I want to scream because of climate change and economic inequality,” one woman wrote. “Because of real estate agents and landlords,” said another. “My fiancé decided he didn’t love me anymore,” read one reply. Miller said she received more than 100 messages in the first hour.

From that callout, the Shout Sisters group was formed. A month later they met for the first time at an inner city park to bellow their frustrations into the Australian night.

n recent months, women-only “scream groups” like Miller’s have cropped up all over the world. Frustration, pandemic exhaustion and the pressures of life are common reasons women say they take part. Most are drawn to the idea of unleashing their anger without inhibition. It’s a freedom participants say is hard to find in a world that can be uncomfortable with women’s rage.

“Women want to scream,” Miller explains. “There are plenty of spaces for men to yell [but] we don’t often get to raise our voices [and] when we do we’re met with disapproval.”

As a character in a novel once said to a bickering man and woman, “If you two quarrel much more I think I’m going to make you marry one another.”

There is a comedian on youtube (Charlie Berens) that did a bit on 10mm sockets and sold them with a clip-on thing to clip onto your belt so you would always have a spare.

Or buy 2 and your wife could wear them as ear rings.

Or buy 12 and hang them as ornaments on the tree.

I came across a thrift store that had boxes full of random sockets - just all tossed in there. 25 cents a socket, 5 for $1. I would go in there and replace whatever ones I couldn’t find at the time, and always grabbed whatever 10mm ones they had.

Went in there the other week and he has gone from picking through auctioned storage lockers and garage sales to buying “bulk lots” of unsold merchandise. I was REALLY disappointed. Had to go the auto store to buy a 23mm socket for $7. (Although the thrift store wouldn’t have had it anyway, but...)

If they do that to you too, then they obviously do so on purpose.

There was an event like that up in western NC. A group of (frustrated) women were going to go up on a hill, take their clothes off and howl at the moon. A friend said he wanted to fly a drone in with a camera on it, I told him you don’t want to see that.

Typical of the feminine to scream or have sex and then consider they gave it out all their life and soul unilaterally and deserve all the bank accounts in exchange.

Abraham paid for it.... with HAGAR SCREAMING so much God was bothered.

THe Ishmaelite game however can turn back on them, because islamics are better at this screaming and crying resulting in suicide attacks
