Ground Rule Number One: myDailyVent is about the small stuff. For example, I live in Manhattan, so a lot of my gripes are about public transportation, like how it makes me wild with frustration when I'm running late and waiting for the subway and 17 express trains come by, but I need the local. This is not the place to express your fears about your loveless marriage, or worry about putting food on the table to feed your children. These are real problems, and have no place on myDailyVent.
Ground Rule Number Two: there is no judgment on myDailyVent. Therefore, if my Vent of the Day details my horror at coming home form work to find that my housekeeper has stretched the shoulders of my favorite sweater beyond recognition by hanging it on a completely inappropriate hanger, it is not ok to comment that I should be thankful to have a housekeeper who hangs up my wet laundry in the first place! Of course I should be thankful, and I am, but I also really liked that sweater. The point here is to hop on to myDailyVent, let it all hang out, and not take it out on my housekeeper, who is a lovely lady.
These are the Rules for now. I reserve the right to make changes in the future, but in the meantime, let the venting begin!

i was going to offer myself up as a contributor, but if i can't complain about my (hypothetical) loveless marriage or my inability to feed my (imaginary) children i'm not sure i want any piece of this.
i accidentally put my favorite hand wash sweater in with my laundry the other day and thankfully it came back still able to be worn, but i was soooo scared as i tried it on.
am i allowed to vent about not winning a toc seat?
