I think I'll never going to get a devRant stress ball, so i made this instead with my pretty low budget (0.5$).18
-
Just want to recommend the DevRant stress ball. I wasn't quite sure how to use it (it doesn't come with instructions) but since stuffing mine down the PM's throat my stress level has reduced dramatically.4

I got my reward stress ball about a week ago, but it vanished within minutes of opening the package 😧
Today I found out who had taken it.17 -
Girlfriend thinks the only reason I feel her breasts is because I don't have a DevRant stress ball 🙈🤔🤓17

I am Indian. I thought my parents had high standards then I looked at devrant's requirements for a stress ball.5

Everytime I throw my stress ball (and miss...because sports are hard) at a co-worker, they ALWAYS think I'm throwing an orange at them.8

Yeah, you thought it right! This one aims for the stress ball...Come on devRants, I have faith in you!2

Ripped through the letter in excitement while opening the parcel :(
Anyway, great stress ball! Let's hope it works4 -

*me seeing rant with stress ball in the pic*
Me to gf:"look babe!!! Streeeeesssssballllllll :D I want one"
*gf points at shirt*:"these are your stress balls ;)"5 -
One of the important lessons I learnt in DevRant.
"You don't choose the free stress ball, the stress ball chooses you."5 -
PM finds my prized stress ball and draws a face on it. When asked why she said "it looked depressed".
THATS THE LOGO YOU DUMB BITCH. PLEASE DON'T TOUCH MY SHIT
On the bright side... Good thing I have this stress ball to relieve my anger 😒16 -
You is not gonna beliebers what just happened lol
So a couple weeks ago I earned a stress ball (300+ ++'s) I sent an email about it but never got a reply, so I decided to just forget about it. But then I just ranted (lastnight) about how its so hard to get a stressball. So I basically just said "fuck it i'll buy one". Then some dude comes along and is like "omg not until he shows us the bought one" so I'm like CHALLENGE ACCEPTED and buy one...
Then I get an email confirmation from devrant store confirming my order for the bought stressball. And I notive that my spam folder has unread messages in it. i look inside the spam folder and what do I see?...
I see dfox replying to my free stressball request weeks ago lol. So yay, now I gets the 3 balls (or two - depending) lol omg, so many balls.15 -
Recently found so many 299++ and I gave them all the last one for the stress ball. Enjoy it fellas3
-
When your 1 year old finds your devrant stress ball and decides to use it as a teether...
At least the face is in tact5 -
One of your rants is 4 away from a stress ball, but it's been over two weeks since the last ++, and you're just like:7
-
THIS is a rant. Somebody send this person a stress ball. “Fuck You Startup World” @shemag8 https://medium.com/@shemag8/...4
-
I think if I ever got a stress ball I would end up throwing it at people who cause me stress instead of using it for its intended purpose4

Reached 100+1 on a single rant...
Devrant raised to 150 +1's in order to receive the stress ball...2 -
Babies get 100+ points.
💡 I just need to make a baby and I'll have my stress ball!
Baby firstBorn = new Baby("Tommy");
firstBorn.setAppearance = "adorable";

FUCK! It's so FUCKING HOT. GODDAMN FUCKING SHIT. EVERYTHING IS SO MUCH MORE FUCKING ANNOYING IN THE HEAT. COUPLE THAT WITH THE FACT THAT I SUCK ASS AT EVERYTHING I TRY TO DO AND I SNAP AT THE SLIGHTEST THING. I NEED THAT FUCKING DEVRANT STRESS BALL, BEFORE I THROW MY SHITTY BOOK ACROSS THE ROOM, FOLLOWED BY MY CONTROLLER, MY LAPTOP, AND MY DESK SOON AFTER.
Fuck.12 -
Couldn't get stress ball from devRant.. But I found one at work.. Now it's mine 😀
After 5 min with it, my stress levels dropped and productivity also..2 -
Came to office and found out my Devrant stress ball is missing from my desk.
Should i go back home?2 -
I don't have a stress ball; I do have an adjustable grip exerciser. It goes from 20lb of force to 90lb.4
-
Everyone seems to have a stress ball, I have a stress dice that says "Yes", "No", "Take a break", "Tomorrow" and "Maybe". It's good for whenever I don't know I should just quit or throw the PC through the window 😅9

Back in the days DevRant used to be a small community. A rant would be seen by all, with a higher chance of marking the stress ball incentive target.
Now, those upvotes are distributed among many more users who have the privilege of upvoting to what they find more interesting.
However, this is not a rant about who has a better chance of winning a stress ball; it's about feeling proud how this community grew so healthy, and tailor made for developers!! :)
Kudos! I love this community6 -
Thanks again devRant, @dfox and @tragus.
Those stickers are amazing.
Hope to get the stress ball one day too.
Btw @dfox what do you mean with +1’s here? 500 +1's on a single rant for a ball2 -
Guys! For every 300 ++s @dfox sends out a signed envelope and a free stress ball! It's like the best deal ever!6
-
My stickers came, thanks @dfox and @trogus! 😄
Now to pull off getting a stress ball. That's gonna be tough... help me out folks! 😨11 -
My girlfriend heard me when I said to want the devRant's stress ball and she decided to compensate.1
-
The first time you go to DevRant :
- " Mmh not bad "
When you realise you can win a stress-ball :
- " OMG need to find something funny to say !! "1 -
Someday I will have a rant that gets enough ++ to get a stress ball. Until that day I will keep taking out my stress on my poor mouse. At least I hardly ever use it so it doesn't matter if I break it...
-
Somebody else like me? Waiting for that beautifully crafted rant/meme/pic/joke that will bring me a stress ball.9
-
Thanks, @trogus & @dfox! Got my stress ball yesterday, brought it in to work today. And here he sits upon his custom pedestal. (his name is Dave, btw.. he just looks like a Dave to me..)7
-
I dont have a rubber duckie, nor a stress ball... but these two terriers are always by my side when coding ❤3

Just cancelled my cinema booking for "Morgan" because THE STRESS BALL HAS ARRIVED!
AW YEAH! CAN'T.WAIT.TO.SQUEEZE.IT1 -
Went to the mall with mom the other day,
Mum: so what do you want?
Me: (pointing to stress ball) that ball
Mum: stop embarrassing us, are you a kid?
Me: they are stress balls
Mum: take a pill or exercise if you stressed
My mind: I told you not to go the mall with your, fucking kid....
devrant a ni**a really need them stress balls9 -
First ever devRant Swag Store order and my stress ball from 150++ on a post! I can't wait to wear the shirt to work tomorrow!4
-
devJackpot in my mailbox this morning! Coffee, Evil Corp stickers (and others), and my free stress ball! Thanks devRant @dfox and @trogus for the fun!5
-
Finally joined the 1000 club! And 5 more ++ on one of my rants and I'll get a stress ball. This week is really going well1
-
When I see the best rants of the week I give a ++ to those that are near the 150++ só they can have a DevRant stress ball5
-
!rant
Loving the community here I wish more people I know personally knew about DevRant hence why I just bought myself a stress ball. Hoping that someone at work might notice it!5 -
@dfox thanks for the stickers! No better place than on ur works notebook.
Next target the stress ball...4 -
@dfox we need like an automatic email reply when we email about stickers/stress ball because I'm waiting unsure if you got my email. I'll just keep waiting patiently I guess...5
-
I remember that time when you only needed 200 +1's to get a stress ball and it was achievable in one life, not four.4
-
The day I was only one ++ away from getting the stress ball.
Decided not to claim it in the end, though.7 -
I'd been considering buying a stress ball, but never quite got round to it (don't see myself contributing a 500+ worthy rant). Then I saw this and now I have a dilemma. If only I had a stress ball to squeeze while I decide...2
-
I love the irony that the devrant stress ball my co-worker just received is the beginning of my stress.... bounce bounce bounce AHHHH!2
-
well,here's my achievement for today! @localhost this is all I do on a Sunday 😂
when you know that you can't get a stress ball(150 ++'s 😱) , make the rant feed your stress ball! 🤓1 -
there was a time when people were begging for upvotes for stress ball and stickers now it is abt avatar. different times different measures3
-
When your happy your rant has enough votes to earn you a stress ball only to realize that they raised the limit since the last time you checked...6
-
Meanwhile I reach 175 +1's I'm playing with my own custom stress ball with a bash fork bomb on it :]
-
So they give us a stress ball if a rant gets that many "upvotes". I find that really stressful, waiting and waiting.. And never get there. In the end of the day we are stressed af and with no stress ball 😂.
But hey, who da hell get stressed for this little? We devs are already stress free...3 -
Mission Accomplished: Stickers
Next Task: Stress ball.
Beginning now...
Sargent :AlphaNu
Platform :devRant -
One of my most inspirational places to create devRant rants! I visit it every week. For a Sunday fun experiment I will gift the first person to guess where it is a devRant 'devie' stress ball or t-shirt. You must provide specific details. We can figure out prize logistic details thru @dfox. There are hints in the image 😀 Enjoy!16
-
When your one rant that showed real potential to get you that stress ball has now slowed. Each new upvote revives the hope and you think - c'mon c'mon, nearly there!8
-
Just saying : devRant people can put another message in the letter they send with the stickers / stress ball and save paper..7
-
When you stress to make a good enough rant so you can receive a stress ball, but now you're stressed so you actually need the damn thing.3
-
!rant
I don't have a stress ball yet, but I share these two small guys with my dog. One for summer and one for Halloween & Winter. And they both squeak like crazy.
Actually, they're a terrible strain when my dog's working on them. -
Started work at a call center recently, really hoping things work out since it's full time, if you're inclined I'd appreciate some help toward that stress ball, I think I may need it soon...4
-
can't possibly think of a good enough rant to earn that 750++.
seems like a nice stress ball! but ranters block. haha so relateable right? ... right? pls.2 -
I think rubber duck debugging is too old now. The next big thing is stress ball debugging. Squish your ball(s) till you get the solution to your problems.3
-
My stress ball has been stolen!
I came in to work to an email alerting me to a bug in production. I copied the site to staging to work on the issue but I was unable to replicate bug. My rubber duck wasn't helping so I went to go bounce my ball off the wall when I realized I don't have a stress ball anymore.
I spent 7 hours working on the bug without a stress ball before finally fixing it. And now I'm ready to deal with the theft the old-fashioned way.3 -
Been over 6 weeks since I was promised the devrant stickers for a post with >20 ups. Didn't get them yet and I am really stressed, so I need a stress ball now.
:'(2 -
I wonder how many developers each day rant here to get stickers and stress ball 😝.
Shameless acceptance: I am one of them.3 -
Someone is going to rant about me soon...
There are two types of debugging for me:
- Calm
- Not that calm!!
So the guy I was helping out handed me a stress ball...4 -
Got my Stress Ball in the mail the other day. It now joins the other items living on my desk at work. :-)3
-
I just had the first day of my new job, and I started it by putting my victoriously earned devrant stress ball on my desk. I waited a word about it the entire day... I guess imma have to introduce my coworkers to the awesome place devrant is 😁2
-
Not sure if he likes the way it looks or he just wants to devour it. Pretty confident it's the second.2
-
thanks devrant :) my life is semi-complete :)
p.s. I'm so stressed I need a stress ball so badly ;)1 -
Stress ball limit got raised to 500++, being pretty realistic about this situation I had to order them instead after realizing it never get that1
-
Just received my stickers and stress ball! A big thanks to the devRant Team. Keep up the awesome work!
-
Devranters, you should make your products available on local stores in Asia, esp India. Like on Flipkart. I seriously need a 'stress ball' 🤔. I read it can help me stress more. Hence rant more! Not a coincidence
-
that feeling.
almost stress ball. 100+
then I saw that they increase the difficulty to 150+
why? hahaha -
What happened to that trans-Atlantic devrant stress ball project? Is there a website for tracking it or something???2
-
having a stress ball is cute, but it is frustrating and stressful to have it rolling away if not careful...
That is why I have stress cubes :p2 -
!rant (kinda)
I finally ordered myself a stress ball, and a PHP duck, but they aren't here yet and I need them today! Also my duck is gonna need to get a new Python cape here soon as well. -
One time project - Search 'stress ball' one time community effort to get @NAlignak a stress ball for going above and beyond.
-
if I'm lucky, I'll be using a devrant stress ball!
Otherwise, I once made this paddle ball game to help with concentration and anxiety, I use that and if that fails I'll go unload my brain doing something else, and come back. -
The main cause of stress in my life is that I'm 90 ++ away from a stress ball, and it looks like my best post is quickly fading into obscurity.2
-
My current stress ball, should I be worried ??
Looks like I'mma need those 500 +1s to get my new stress ball, promise I'll treat it differently this time 😂😂 -
!rant
It is more than 6 months after successfully ordering free stress ball and I haven't received it yet:-\1 -
I got a stress ball and stopped using Devrant. I feel bad. Thought I'd share that with you all. Oh and it seems that I'm back!
-
I never got 100 +1 ... and now that has risen to 150 I see that I never take away the stress that I have hahaha. so I had to make my own stress ball, but painted is not the same😔
-
Everyday life: Colleague offers me a stress ball after hearing about deadline shifted forward (again).
We are ending up playing basketball in office with the whole team...
