{In recognition of the first Rumour Clipboard topic to reach 50,000 views, a few of the posts in "What's Your Beef" are being remembered.  Started by JohnnyBeBad on July 25th, 2004, "What's Your Beef" has consistently held the highest Views-per-Visit ratio in the forum, accumulating over 1,300 replies along the way.  A link to the complete "What's Your Beef?" topic can be found on the last page of this tribute to The Hawk Road's favorite place to complain.  One section here features only beefs from Capies, easily The Hawk Road's grumpiest member.}

Miss_Honda:

"My beef is the ppl who piss at the end of the warf and not off it...it sucks to have to go and work with stinky pissy rope all day...its gross and the skin is falling off my hands from using javex..and I hate those ppl that have a job but can still come and go as they please!! Plus...death to the person who drinks that last beer in the f$$&in fridge!!!"

Kanuck6:

"Let me tell ya somethin...I'm proud to be a redneck. Who the hell is worried about what some dude in Halifax or Toronto or bum-f**k Egypt thinks about ya anyway? Do your thing and don't worry about the guy next door. Treat others like you want to be treated. If you visit "the city", act civilized...and if somebody says something about the way you talk, tell 'em to go f**k themselves. "Did you understand that?" and crack on. If they think you're screwed up because you puked all over the Liquor Dome, then maybe that's your fault."

LobstaMobsta:

"My beef is with people postin' two words such as "Good point" or "LMAO at that one!"...should be a paragraph minimum. I've almost got enough hours to file a claim for pogey for all the time spent reading. Also, got a beef with tourists asking, "Where's the lighthouse?". Yes, it really does exist...even though you can't see it through the fog!"'

BarbieDoll:

"LMAO...good one!"

Foxy69:

"Has anyone watched Oprah lately? Last night I caught some of it, and a woman was on there from Nova Scotia. Oprah said something along the lines of... "Do people actually live in Nova Scotia", "Do Black ppl live in Nova Scotia?" , "Do they have houses in Nova Scotia?" and "How do they get to Nova Scotia?" Man, I think this place is pretty damn good, considering all the beaches and great stuff we have here. We actually have wildlife that wasn't imported to live in a cage. What is she stuck in?...smog and millions of ppl stuck on one street all squished together. I'm damn proud to be from the Cape Island / Barrington area, and I wouldn't leave it for the world. I love the ocean...it's relaxing. Only thing wrong is a few crazy ppl, but you can work around them."

BigBoy:

"My beef is "little man syndrome". F**k...get a life!"

JohnnyBeBad:

"Had a telemarketer call here last week 4 times until i answered the phone. From what I could make out of it, he sounded Afganistan-ish, and was babbling about my approval for an MBNA Visa Card. Fed him some B.S. for 10 minutes orso...fake name, SIN, address, workplace, yadda-yadda...

So, JOE GOREHAM, whoever you may be, congrats on your new MBNA VISA!"

Mee:

"My beef is when you hear a father say they have to baby-sit! It gets under my skin. They helped make the child...it's a responsibility, not a job! They think their job is done once the "deed" is done. I don't know about anyone else, but this is something that really bugs me."

Ackle:

"My beef is with parents who scream at their children in public places. Nothing burns me more than this. Why would you want to humiliate your kid in public? It obviously doesn't work, because 10 minutes later you're yelling at them again. Went to the movies the other night with my son, and there was a mother behind us who screamed at her kids throughout the whole movie. It took every inch of me to not say something. Why bother to bring them if all you're going to do is holler?"

Crusty_Crustacian:

"Would everyone stop with the JMO (just my opinion) stuff. We know it's your opinion...you don't have to say it. JMO."

JBB:

"My beef is with people who make upwards of $60,000 a year, drive a brand new double cab 4x4, got a brand hammer new house, cheating the gov`t any which way they can, and then complain about not having any money right to your face! It's quite an insult to anyone who's just getting by to hear someone bitch and moan about the cost of the new driveway they just had paved or how they'd like to go on a vacation but don't think they'll have enough airmiles to pay for the trip.

Arrrrgh, quitcherbitchin!"

Islandboy:

"My beef is slow and not-so-bright ppl...and ppl who wait to the last minute to do things. Then when they decide to do things they get all huffy that it's not done right if you step in to give them a hand. Well hell...if they tell you what is going on in that lil brain, maybe some ppl might know what to do. Does it really take 1 1/2 to 2 hrs to rope a pot (just 2 sides)?"

Miss Bitch:

"My beef is with the arsehole who was going to air everyone's dirty laundry on this site. Said he had been going to the old school house for 6 months sober, and had been watching people to see what shit he could start. Says he seen and heard enough to break up friendships and relationships. I say to him, 'GET A F**KIN' LIFE!' "

Harlo D.:

"New beef...the f*$%ing bridge in Clyde shut down. To all levels of government that are allowing this bullshit to go on: my sweaty balls, your tongue...you know what to do!"

Rider:

"The friggin' wind is causing some major drifting. The snow is up to my living room window and they're 5 feet from the ground. Just the windows and roof of the cars sticking out the snow in my driveway. *&%#%* SNOW!"

Salt Water Cowboy:

"Ahh...the good ol' days when 1 X 1 = 2. You might wanna pick up that calculator, buddy."

Rodrick:

"My beef isn't that bad or important, and it probably doesn't bother anyone but me. It's this saying I here everyone using: "YOUR A HECK OF A MAN, DOING A HECK OF A JOB"...this is the new yarn. It isn't funny...CHRIS ROCK is funny. I went to Wilson's (cuz they didn't ruin my Christmas}, and there was a man there I'd say about 90 years old... and he was saying it. Classic Cape Islander, too...say something once, and if it get's a reaction, say it 45 times a day. I'm all done beefin."

Maggie:

"There's a difference between an "arse" (as you called yourself) and a "smartass" (as you called me). An arse gets pissed off when somebody disagrees with what they are saying, even though it was obviously a dumb comment that made no sense. A "smartass" who gets accused of "arguing" with someone, when there's no argument going on because the post in question was ridiculous, doesn't seem to make any sense.

There's also a difference between arguing and debating, though it's obvious not many people who frequent this site understand that. An arguer such as yourself is "always right", and attacks people who disagree...then use a "No intelligent life here" to end the conversation that they are so obviously losing. A debater gives their opinion on ideas, remarks, statements...and though they may not agree with what someone thinks or says, they understand that that is the whole point of talking about something and don't get mad at the person and call them names, point fingers, etc."

East Coaster:

"Try watching the News people, instead of going on your guff when you have no idea what you are talking about."

66 North:

"If there is one thing I have learned since last summer by coming on THR. you better know how to spell and sure as HELL don't mention religion. I was told of the fun on here..must be, 'cause every time someone slip's, there one or two ready to jump on them. Lighten' up...it's all for FUN!"

Miss Bitch:

"My beef is with dog owners who let their dogs run the roads. Then when they find them, the owner kicks the shit out of them. Some stupid-ass done this in my driveway. Hey buddy with the red Cavalier...got your lisence plate #!"

Scotta12:

"Yeah...it's like these idiots who get all pissed off when they call their dog and the dog won't come to them. Then when the poor creature finally does come, the imbecilic owner BEATS IT and says, "Yup, next time you'll come when I call ya, ya little bastard!" Hello???"

Sunshine:

"Just got the Coast Guard today and looked at the baby pages. No offense, but the names people are naming their kids these days...a name is not always spelled how it sounds! Maybe I'm just old fashion, but some of those names sounded like something I heard off Star Trek!"

Wwjdd:

"I have a few small, stupid beefs that don't cost me any sleep, but here they are:

People who pronounce things the following way:

1. Wal-Mark

2. Sellers

3. Motor Mark

4. Niggerson

Not sure why, just bugs me every now and again

JBB:

"It's igrent to make fun of the way i says I seen so-n-so Niggason up to Sellas n yarned with him bout the new Wal-Mark they'm buildin and how I like them there new chevy Abalanchies down ta Modah-Mark.

You say po-ta-toe, I say bo-tay-dos."

Strikergal:

"My Beef is for the weatherman that predicted 2-5 cm. He can come shovel my driveway!"

JBB:

"I also have a beef with POST- WHORES! I love to throw in a one-line zinger every once in a while just to spice things up, but myself and others keep it relevant to the topic at hand. It's common courtesy. There's been many a post I wrote out, then deleted because it was short and meaningless babble...but SOME people don't think that way ,obviously. This is a warning to all post-whores, I have an artillary of post-whore insult pictures and will insert them at will in every topic."

LobstaMobsta:

"Yeah, sorry for the blasting but was a long day at work. There is no limit to how many posts one makes, but I find it aggravating to go in every topic and see the crack of a man's ass...especially for those that view the site at work or with kids at home. If you was doing this in your own topic then I wouldn't care, because I could skip that topic. I'm pretty sure if I posted a picture of my own ass crack there would be some complaints. All I'm saying is consider other users when choosing your avatar and your language."

Rodrick:

"Well, I don' t wanna sound like a set of swollen blue balls or anything, but everyone's copying me. I started the NBA topic, it's been copied...I started the Best Rapper topic, it's been copied...I started the Best Wrestler topic, its been copied. Even my Paint Ball yarn's been copied. Anyways..."

Cockawhitcuti:

"I think it's hilarious how ppl allow Chachi to even bother their time. How many times has he posted to get a razz out of someone?...and they fall for it everytime! Either read his posts with a laugh or just skip over them. He's like a bad rash...ignore it and it'll go away, but scratch it, and it keeps getting worse! For goodness sake ppl, get a life! This forum is for fun, so could we please get back to having FUN!"

ChickenFinga:

"Please stop private messaging me telling me that you wanna meet me and kick my ass. It's getting annoying. Don't take me so personally...I don't know who you are, and I sure don't want to."

Itsmeitsme:

"This post is not meant to offend anyone, it's just my feeling about chicken nuggets."

Walkintall:

"What pisses me off are people who like to keep score, but can only conveniently remember the points scored by the home team and not the visitors. My advice is grow up and get a hobby."

MatthewC:

"My beef is with people who use their religion as a way out of work. I understand that Christianity celebrates it's beliefs on Sundays, but if you work at a place that is open on Sundays you should be prepared to have to work. I think I'm going to start a revolution...from this day forward, all atheists cannot work Fridays because it's our one and only day of non-belief...TAKE THAT CHRISTIANITY!"

2bhonest:

"My beef goes like this: I was standing in line at the check-out isle minding my own p's & q's, when a little lady with 2 deep fryers and 3 bags of salt in her shopping cart runs into the back of me. Without stopping or even looking at me she just keeps on crackin' like i was a speed bump. What's up with these women when they get in a shopping mall...is it survival of the fittest? Anyway, that's my beef."

Dabunnie:

"My Beef: No one to to party with...WTF?"

Asl33p:

"Alright, time for my first beef. My beef is with people that have beefs, and won't stand the fudge up behind their beef and justify it. They just bitch and complain about someone cuz they like to hear their own voice (or in this case see themselves post). If it's personal, then take it to the private messages and sort it out in private. No one else wants to see it."

Wwjdd:

"I like people who are passionate about intelligent conversation. I don't have all the answers, man I ain't even got a quarter of 'em, I can admit it. Tell you the truth, if everybody had my opinion I don't think I'd even bother coming on here. That's most of the fun...seeing different standpoints. Back to the topic at hand, my beef is when people take a joke and make it their own, and don't give you credit for it when you made it up."

DigsyDinner:

"So by hmi saiyn "thier" instaed of "their", yuo didtn knwo whta he maent?"

Asl33p:

"I find it amusing how serious some people take this website. It's great for catching up on the latest gossip and a little bit of news, keeping track of happenings in the community, and I applaud Hawkroad for putting his own time and money into it. But damn people, outside of this 17" box some of you seem to live in, there's a little thing called reality. Step back, take in a deep breath, then slap yourself for letting yourself get so wrapped up in THR...then go get a life."

Backbreakinlabour:

"Dial-up internet, dial-up internet...I hate dial-up internet. Don't even bother after supper, don't even bother. You guys with high speed, you got it good! It wouldn't matter if I had a Pentium 9-billion, cause I gots dial up internet."

Rider:

"Hey Fly...the only thing virgin on you is your nose, and that's been fingered."

Superfly:

"People, get a frickin' grip. Those who know me and slander this frickin' shit, I'm done listening to it 24-God d**n-7. I dont care if it's true or not or if you don't see my side of things...but here's a piece of advice: STFU before I come over there and give you a free ride to the f**king moon! Go out there acting like the morons most of you are...I just don't wanna hear it any more. Have a nice frickin' day, people!"

LobstaMan:

"I have a beef with these offshore boats dumping on our gear all f**kin' day long. We got all 10-pot trawls, and there's a trawl on top of 15-20 of them everyday. Today is the day their trawls get towed into a big snarl. Take that, f**kers!"

JBB:

Ha ha, Fly...that's like a dog takin' a long piss. Easiest way for a fella to mark his territory is to fish 15-potters with offshore bouy-lines in 6 fathom water. If they piss you off that much, just haul the first 40 fathom up and tie it."

ChickenFinga:

My beef is when people like Capies and Lobstaman chew about big boats being inside. Just because somebody has a big boat doesn't mean they have to steam for 4 hours everyday...for nothing, I might add. Everybody's trying to make a dollar. I highly doubt, Lobstaman, that you're getting dumped on 20 times a day. Get real, it's not that bad. I take a big boat, I got my gear inside...I try not to dump on people and drive them. If I get on top of somebody and realize it, I haul it back off of them. Don't make us out to be the bad guys. Maybe some people that take big boats are ignorant arssholes, but I know people in small boats that are too! It's a big district...if there's too much gear for you inside, then private message me. I got some good 10 chipper/25 pot on a week set bearings for you if you want them. You'll have it all to yourself! So, my beef=Crybabies."

JenG:

"I have a beef: I hate it when people wear suit coats that are a totally different colour than the pants. I don't know why, but this bothers me. Jay Leno does it all the time."

Knowitall:

"Don't air out your dirty laundry unless all the redneck is out of the collar!"

MatthewC:

"I'm hooked on THR...sorry, this site is like crack. One hit and you're on it for good. The reason I enjoy this site is because I can come on here and say what I want to whoever I want, whether they like it or not. In my opinion, the only way to learn about different values and beliefs is by clashing with them...taking some of their points and really thinking about them. Nothing wrong with a good arguement...it's what makes the world we live in somewhat exciting rather than one monotonous blob."

Dudepope:

"My beef is Tinkas who think they are more mature than everyone else...actually, any tinka pisses me off."

Jessie James:

"This is not a beef, but I didn't know where to put this. When you get 2000+ people anywhere, there are going to be problems. Eeveryone has their way of thinking...some agree, some don't. I would like to think this is ALL FOR FUN and a REAL GOOD PAST TIME for me when the weather won't let you go outdoors much. I have got a lot of enjoyment from THR these past few months, and would like it to continue. Let's all go and have a good time."

Rodrick:

"My beef is that the botatoe gets no love. 3 dollars for a 50-pound bag...that ain't shit. And everyone throws them out after dinner...what you thinking? You'll all be so sorry when they're gone...then what you gonna do? Just remember that a botatoe just isn't anyone's ho."

Cockawhitcuti:

"My beef is with older people forgetting that they were young once!"

BillaBongBabe:

"Can't we all just get along? Let go of your grudges and BEEFS! The world would be a much happier place."

Capies:

"I am sick and tired of society having to be politically-correct...don't offend the old people, you'll be old someday. Don't offend the gays...why?...'cause I'll be gay too someday? I DON'T THINK SO. Don't offend the lazy assholes that have no intensions of working...just collect their welfare cheque and bum from family members. This one REALLY pisses me off . Politically correct? I say the hell with that...you just might as well say it as think it."

Capies:

"Some women can have tits like that in no time. Just rub toilet paper between them everyday...it worked for their ass!"

Capies:

"Here's my beef: Yarmouth is going to hold Hallowe'en on the 30th for the trick-or-treaters, but MOB isn't. Here's my opinion...the inside chambers of council must be a proctoligist's dream...wall-to-wall arseholes! Making the kids go out on a sunday night with school the next day...shamefull. They ought to be dragged out back and beaten with a baseball bat wound in barbed wire. Don't they have kids?"

Capies:

"I got a little beef. It's when women complain about us men dribbling on the toilet seat. Yes, we do lift the seat, but sometimes a dribble still gets on the seat. Next time, I'm pissing in the hamper."

Capies:

"I got a little beef...Barrington has NO doctors right now! Why? Because Dr.YEE is away for a month, probably gone to China, and Dr. Mikhil is booking for March because he just got back from Eygpt. Remember when a country doctor was somebody who lived in the country instead of somebody that's from another country? Why can't they get a replacement doctor from some weird out-of-the-way place like, I dunno, CANADA?"

Capies:

"My beef is Radio Bingo. Why in the ole sweet f**k can't you call the numbers on my card? I swear to God they know what numbers are on my card and they're really trying to piss me off. Any-ole-how, there goes another radio flying off the patio."

Capies:

"Ha, there it is...brainstem-f**kitis. No cure...so sad."

Capies:

"Why recycle? Everything nowadays is disposable...cripes, they're even coming out with disposable cell phones. I say frig it...until big corporations start making products that last instead of having to buy countless items and filling up the landfills, why should I recycle?"

Capies:

"Beam me up scotty...there's no intelligent life in this subject."

Capies:

"Naw, I don't get pissed off anymore. I figure if you guys can tolerate an arsehole like me, then I can tolerate a smartass like you. It's all good."

Capies:

"My beef for the day: BLIND PEOPLE! If you see a balloon or bouy, give a guy some room."

Capies:

"Narrow minded IDIOTS...the lot of ya! Boys, I got some friends that are Black...yes, surprise, surprise. And I'd trade their ass for any one of yours any day of the week, and twice on Sunday. Y'all as bad as the Deep South. Good ole boys? you'm lookin at one...and Black folk are tops in my book. Christ, y'all listen to that rat music...no wonder yer f**ked in the brain...even black folks have gone Country just to get away from your narrow-minded idiot arses."

Capies:

"Thank you, from one rocket scientist to another."

Capies:

"Sorry guys...no beef tonite. The good wife is out tonite throwing a little party, the beer is flowing free, and GREAT BIG SEA tunes are cranked. I'll pay for it tomorrow. Fight amongst yourselfs. Capies...out."
