You know what grinds my gears...people from the 19th century. Seriously, get with the program.

non-jokingly:

pop culture since 199x-name it (that encompasses 99% of my gripes).
restaurants that insist on slathering everything in mayonnaise (that is the other 1%).

Also, there are two types of people that grinds my gears, those that are intolerant of other people's culture, and the French (that is half-way serious, French people deserve their reputation, they really are jerks.)

Football season to be over with. Assuming they do have teams in other sports you can root for. If not, then all college sports of all kinds are off limits. Sorry, dude.

People that drive in the passing lane at, or below, the flow of traffic.

Your sarcasm reeks...but you know exactly what I'm talking about, idiots like Buckeye Cowboy, Buckeye Caveman and the bald moron who are middle age ass wipes and somehow work their way onto TV each week usually in the student section and the rest of the country thinks those are typical fans and you damn well know those three and thousands like them never set foot in an academic bldg at OSU.

What is up with girls posting selfies all the Fn time? Are they just insecure and looking for compliments or something?

Dont get me wrong because if the girls is hot then ya get alot of pics to look at, but damn it just screams out desparation. Back in the day, and it may still happen, this always happened when a girl in school would always say "oh I bet i failed that" to illicit responses such as "oh you are smart, You did fine" etc (only to see her get an A on the test) or the skinny girl who would always say "I am so fat" only to have her friend assure her she isnt.

Oh well....guess I just dont understand.


One thing that really grinds my gears is when people think their problems trump everyone elses, or for whatever reason they are the only one with pressure in their life and make sure everyone knows about it.

lol, I actually do. When I see those guys on TV every damn week, it about makes me want to puke. Because the camera lingers on their dumb asses for 10 seconds at a time when they cut to commercials.

It's not fucking fair. Florida State had those hot chicks like the one who Brett Favre was creepin' on in New York. And the Bucks have those fucking losers. The terrorists have won...

Probably the biggest gear-grinder for me is getting stuck behind some asshole driving 30 in a 45, then they turn off. While they're turning off, someone pulls out and replaces that driver going 30 in a 45.

It's almost like there's a god and he's fucking with me.

I actually know more dudes who take selfies than girls. I've taken a couple in my day, but usually only when I do something drastic to my hair or buy a new hat, etc. In general, they are lame no matter the sex.

I take them from time to time. Because I'm horribly vain and self-centered.

Main pet peeve now is idiots who seem to think the world wants to hear their "great" political beliefs no matter the context. Both here and in real life. NEWSFLASH: If you have friends/acquaintances you like to banter about that stuff with, go right ahead. But not to me. I. Don't. Give. A. Fuck. Not about your opinions. Not about the random online headline you just read that you have to spout off your opinion about. Not about how witty you think you are because you tied in a completely unrelated topic to your beliefs and need to share, as in the Black Friday thread here.

Just fuck off and die, goddamn retards.

No selfies, but I do send a lot of dickpics to all the girls on snapchat. Most of them seem to have blocked me, though.
