I didn't know if the grinds your gears in quotes meant this was simply about things that annoy you while driving but the main thing that irritates me while driving is when people pull out in front of you and then turn on the next road which isn't that far away.

Something else that annoys me if this thread is for everything that annoys us are the people who talk the whole way through a movie whether it be at the theater or at home. I don't mind talking about a certain part but do you really need to talk the whole movie? I think you can find somewhere else to go if you feel that strongly that you need to talk to the person you are with.

It's not always my wrestler though. There are numerous matches where I have no bias what so ever, and I notice it.

I've posted about this before, but I rage every day because of this.

Lane closing arrow clearly ahead, so dumbasses get into that lane and try to zoom around to the front of the pack, which causes congestion at the point where the lanes are forced to merge, which causes a 15 minute traffic jam nearly every day on my way home from work.

This construction has been going on for well over a year, and is not slated to be completed for at least another year, and there is still probably not a faster way home.

Definitely meant it as a "what just pisses you off".

I'm just bustin your balls, I've heard it all in my 14 seasons in stripes. I don't always agree with all calls made either but I also don't agree with coaches decisions, or parents, or the athletes alot of times either! It is a judgement call and therefore will always be left open to interpretation.

This. Why don't they get nailed with littering offenses like I would if I threw ANYTHING else out of my window? At least the shit I would throw out would decompose, unlike cig filters.

Fair enough. The calls aren't what "grind my gears" anyway. As I stated earlier it's how the particular refs carry themselves. I.E. very arrogant, tends to dramatize the match, and they act like everyone is there to see them officiate.

I realize it's not easy being a wrestling official. They get ripped the most out of all types of officials imo. It's great they sacrifice weekends to officiate matches, because we need officials in wrestling. It just doesn't do an official any favors if he is an arrogant prick.

Another driving thing that drives me nuts. A two lane road merges in to one lane. Sign clearly shows that the left lane merges into the right lane. I'm in the right lane and idiot stays in the left lane and forces me to slow down to let them in because they aren't paying attention.

Haha, obviously.

But good news, she had her baby and is out on maternity leave. I was out last week for vacation, she had the baby on Saturday, and she'll be out for a while. She wasn't due until March 20th.

How about the person who obviously can't read and has never used a computer before holding up the self checkout by taking 15 minutes for 2 items. :mad:

A lot of people in this thread need to smoke more weed - that being said I have terrible road rage, especially with being cut off and people who sit at green lights.

I'm in a similar situation on my drive home. Construction has made the right hand lane a go straight, and the left hand lane a turn left. My lane (go straight) is a mile long because fuckers will go into the turning lane cutting about 10-15 of us who have sat through 2-3 light cycles, and then pussies up front will allow them to merge in. Fuck them. When you see someone do that you ride the bumper in front of you and freeze them out. You can't allow people to cut in traffic merges or else we're left with transportational anarchy.
