What Really Grinds Your Gears?

What grinds my gears?


Lack of lubrication.

 

[bert2834]

When my wife tells me to choose where we eat and says no to the 5 places I name.

JUST PICK WHERE YOU WANT TO EAT GOSH DARNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[D-BOE34]

When a small part worth about 5 dollhairs on my car breaks and the dealer refuses to sell it to me. They just want to replace the part for $300 instead. It is what I am currently going through.

Being check raised when you know your beat.

Soto's irrationalness in Karate Kid 2-- Dude, Myagi apologized over and over.

Ha ha! This whole thread is hilarious, but I laughted out loud when I read this.

 

[AlbuquerqueIrishFan]

I hate people who pronouce scenario as si-nar-ee oh. It should be: si-nair-ee-oh. Dam it say it right!

This is a Dane Cook joke that I agree with.

 

[Irish Insanity]

Dead-beat parents. Period. No excuse.

 

[The Polish Irishman]

people who ride bicycles on busy roads during rush hour traffic. You are not a biker, you ride a bicycle and u r a d*ck

 

[Rack Em]

Teenage girls in the movie theater. Seems like they are always directly behind me giggling and being obnoxious.

I hate teenage girls no matter where they are. They're all inherently obnoxious no matter what they're doing.

 

[jason_h537]

People in general. They are stupid.

 

[military_irish]

I hate people that are one uppers. I say "the other day I took my nephew fishing and he caught a 10lb fish" Then someone decides to chime in and say well one time I caught one that was 50lbs. Good for you glad you can out fish a kid jack ***.

Yeah well I hate one uppers more. Like this one time I was talking about how I hate one uppers and this other guy starts blabbing about how much he hates one uppers and I was like whaaaaaaaaaattttt

Haha nice.

 

[theclassickiller]

People who are fat (and I don't mean a bit pudgy, but like "I have to get a handicap parking pass so the I get to park closer to the store" fat) not because they have a disease/disorder but simply because they can't find the time to get off their fat ***.

People who go out of their way to not like something or someone.

People who don't take the time to comprehend that everyone has to deal with bull **** too.

People who can't take a joke.

Racists.

People who think you're racist because you don't like the stupid things they do/say even though it has nothing to do with the color of their skin.

Women who think that all men are awful and that men don't ever get the **** end of a relationship.

People who judge too much with out knowing.

I could go on.

I know, there is a chance (a good one probably) that I said something hypocritical, but I think what matters is I'm trying damnedest to not be. Everyone does or says something hypocritical at some point in their life (which scares me since Dante said one of the lower rings in hell was reserved for hypocrites, but maybe that's just people who knowing live with hypocrisy and are okay with it? or maybe those who are hypocritical to the extreme? eg a Jewish Nazi?)

These ^

I have a friend who constantly says "oh, gross" after everything food related anyone talks about as if he only eats bread and drinks water. I've started holding him to it now, and I make a big deal whenever he eats something that is "gross" in his opinion just to embarass him and make a point of his ridiculous statements.

Also, if you get so fat that you can't contribute to society, then society owes you nothing.


And I'd like to add:

People who can afford to go on vacation but still get food stamps. Look, I know people on food stamps who are not abusing the system. Ok, they need help. But when I see someone who abuses the system to get free stuff that I have to use my hard-earned money for and then can use their "extra" cash to do extravagant things which I can't do because I have to use my money to buy necessities, I just want to run to Washington and... hug someone.

Something like this?

Oh, here is a BIG one lately... Burger King, Mini Marts and Gas Stations that now accept EBT (Welfare Debit Cards)


we are how far in the hole and we are allowing people to get a Whooper and some fries with our tax dollars????!!!!

and yeah, that video was meant to prove the point, I assume (hope)... but it's dead. the. hell. on.

Too Many Things

Too Many Things

What grinds my gears:

When you argue with facts, the other just calls you names.

People who say Fox News is biased, but won't admit the other networks are biased.

Old people who drive.

People who don't get out of the left lane.

My girlfriend when she thinks I should be reading her mind.

People who are overweight and get handicapped stickers because they don't want to walk.

The short list.

When 51% of the population is now considered below the poverty line, businesses will do what they can to make money.

Oh that's just great... maybe the grand all knowing, all solving government should do something... seeing how it's solely the buisnesses fault.

Maybe taxing "job creators" to generate revenue might work. Because all those jobs they created in the last 12 years of tax breaks have been a huge help

seeing how you could take every dime those job creators are worth (not yearly, but total) and it wouldn't even fund **** like this for one calender year in the current budget... wait, I mean if we had a current budget... I seriously laugh at the notion that would impact anything at all...




enjoy those handouts I just gave you... playa

Your right $700 Billion is nothing, how we should get the money is by taking away millions from Social Security, Medicare, Education, Public services and regulatory systems like the EPA.

 

[theclassickiller]

Oh and also when Democrats call the Conservatives things like "immature" or "childish" because they refuse to pass something through and claim that they are simply trying to hold things up to make a point.

Umm... so voting for something you don't agree with is the "adult" thing to do?

Why even have multiple parties? Let's just have one party that votes on everything so that things can get done, right? Checks and balances is soooo dumb, it just makes things harder. I'd like someone to give me ONE example where having a single decision-maker leading a country has gone awry!

 

[ACamp1900]

another thing that grinds my gears....

libs who somehow think it is the fault of hard working Americans that those who don't work hard are lazy. That grinds my gears too...

 

[jason_h537]

Or conservatives that think that all poor are lazy and that corporations are people too

Even as a progressive I agree with this, MSNBC is very Liberal (basically the polar opposite of Fox News).

Brah... enough. You know what happens when political threads start. You're baiting people and it's friggin' stupid. The whole damn system is broke. Either we get together, or this whole friggin' ship is going down. What's the point of arguing sh!t that ain't working? These little factions are what is destroying this F*cking country.

Find me an honest man... Find me a man that doesn't depend on kickbacks...find me a man that isn't swayed by lobbyist. Find me a man with some moral fiber who loves this country as much as I do and let's get this **** back on track. Otherwise, we're on our way to becoming another Russia with no cash/no credit/NO DICE....

On topic with your party rant, I think political parties are stupid. To try and align yourself with a group who I seriously doubt you agree about everything with is asinine. Hell, political party members don't even agree with everything their party stands for.

Fact of the matter is, the parties go to extremes rather than find middle ground because extremists vote and middle ground voters either pick in a toss up or don't vote at all.
