What Really Grinds Your Gears?

Really, I don't care who you're talking to and don't have a desire to listen to your conversation.

People who have late model cars that have Blue Tooth links but still insist on driving around holding their cell phone up to their heads. You might as well tape a sign to your car that reads "inattentive driver; please ticket me."

Is anybody else having issues with the site? Because issues with the site really aggravate me

Late model cars that don't have the Bluetooth link in the first place. Our new car has every other feature... automatic doors, three zone AC, two rows of stow-and-go seats, rear-view camera, MP3, DVD player, satellite radio, and touch-screen navigation. But no Bluetooth.

I know, I wasn't even able to post here for like... 2 weeks. Clearly some kind of bug with the site.

Some sort of woolybug, perhaps?

In the biz, we call that "OPERATOR ERROR"

You talking about when you try to go to another page and it redirects you to a blank page a advertising in the upper left corner? No, I've not had that problem.

In IT we call that a PBKAC error. "Problem Between Keyboard And Chair".

Isn't also the identification 10 transition error aka id10t error?

Bartenders who don't know basic drink terminology. So many of them don't know what "Neat" and "Straight Up" mean. When I order drinks at a bar I have to so often talk to them like children because they don't know what these terms mean. Also, too many people don't know the difference between tonic water and club soda. I've actually had to tell bartenders which button on the bar gun to use to make sure I get the proper mixture in my drink. A lot of times, I just wind up getting a beer. Hard to screw that up. Or I just drink at home.

They've studied this. It makes no difference to driver attentiveness.

He's not talking about whether it makes you ACTUALLY more or less attentive, he's talking about how obvious you make yourself for cops.

Oh yeah, I forgot that there are some oppressive states out east that ban talking on the cell phone while driving.

When you go to the gas station to get some hard boiled eggs (because you're a fat slob that's useless when your wife is out of town) and they're out of the good eggs that come with a thing of salt and pepper and some cheddar cheese so you have to get the plain kind.

IrishLion · Jun 6, 2017

Wait wait wait.

1. You can't hardboil some eggs?

2. Why do you go to a gas station for any food product, let alone something that can go wrong very easily like eggs? Just hit the local grocery.

1. My uselessness isn't about boiling the eggs, it's about the motivation to go to the grocery store when your house runs out of food.

2. This particular gas station chain, Cumberland Farms, is super clean / nice / trustworthy. My wife will eat breakfast sandwiches from there and she's very hesitant about that kind of thing.

We've got a chain (Thornton's) that is the same. Their drink machines always look like they were installed that morning, and the food is legitimately always fresh. That's the only gas station where I'll get a hot dog.

They also make spectacular pizza, but you have to get extremely lucky based on when you stop in to fill up your tank, or when you're driving by and need food.

I got a hard boiled egg from the gas station this morning. Ha

Hard boiled eggs are tough to fuq up.

Are hard boiled eggs like a standard, common snack for you guys?

I don't know if I know anyone that eats them on a regular basis besides the two body-builders I know (and I know you two aren't juice heads haha), and I don't think I've ever seen hard boiled eggs offered as a prepared snack at a convenience store or gas station near me.

I eat them for breakfast pretty regularly. I would eat one as a quick snack too. They are healthy, clean, easy to eat protein nuggets. A large amount of people I know are pretty similar. Maybe Cinci peeps are too busy carb loading on 5-way. Ha

You eat at Thornton's? That's for the poors.

I saw your mom fit four hard boiled eggs in her mouth at one time. It was spectacular.

Whoa whoa whoa there partner. I can handle you being a bitch who eats hard boiled eggs and pretends to be a tough guy bank teller.

But you slow your roll about 5 ways....

Unless you're talking about the one I had with your mom last night.

Very likely, though the standard "snack" is a 3-way.

5-Way is for dinner. It has vegetables.

Just getting in touch with my inner-West Sider.
