When people start their post with @(forumers name) this isn't twitter people, you can just quote people.

Humanity in general. Everything about us. Anything that isn't pure logic or reason.

The worst part is that being human makes me irrationally desire to continue to exist as a living human.

Stupid illogical meatbag brain...

1. People who use the word "sick" as a definition of cool.


Actually They Use It As A Synonym

@Peace Bullet: Yeah I agree with that.

Whilst "grinds my gears" is the wrong description I get very annoyed at people who get moody over something and then carry it on for days. For goodness sake, if something has annoyed you, say so, get it out, sort it out, get over it.

Not changing the fluid in your tranny will certainly do it...after a while.

Awful grammar (I don't mean putting a preposition at the end of a sentence, I mean like "We didn't get no hamburger!")

On the other hand, I can empathize with hamburger deprivation quickly leading to garbled madness.

So she says to me...with her hand on her hip..."Honey, will you move this transmission so I can take a bath?"

Now that really grinds my gears. :banghead:

1. People who make more noise pollution when they chew than a jackhammer.
2. People who liked to think they are the one true fan of ____ and will laugh snobbishly at new users who don't know the right answer.
3. People who like to support one particular government system, and have no formal defense beyond 'IF IT AIN'T ____ IT'S WRONG!!!'
4. Creepers blowing my [censored] house up on Minecraft ;-;

I don't care what age you are when playing those games. As long as you are MATURE. When immature people play those games is what ticks me off.

If the kids are mature, that's fine.... But when was the last time you played with a group of kids that didn't whine and throw fits?

For example, this afternoon I was playing Black Ops in a High Roller Gun Game on Nuketown. There was this kid with a mic that would scream, cuss, and eventually start crying when he was killed and lost the game. Then in the post-game lobby where we picked the next map, he started calling us all very, very naughty words (still crying, by the way), and saying stuff like, "You're all too rough with me, it's not fair," and other such nonsense. It's called High Roller for a reason kid, if you can't take the heat, stay out of the boiler room/kitchen.

People who have to use the elevator even though their just going to the floor right above them or just below them. Lazy ****s. That elevator is meant for elderly and the crippled, walk your *** up there ******.

People who always on edge and are all like GIVE IT YOUR ALL!!!! NUMBER ONE!!! WOOOOOOHHH!!!
Chill the **** out man. (Pretty much any jocks/frat boys)

People who clap in the middle of someones speech, cheering, etc. I just don't like crowds of people making large noises, I'm trying to hear what they have to say.
Specially hate people who cheer someone who walks up on stage, save the applause for afterwards when we know they done something worth cheering for.

When my co-workers take the day off to be "sick" and leave the rest of us to put up with their work. And then they come back talking about the hangover they have from the party last night....

@Peace Bullet the only reason I do it is because I don't want to start a new post and I don't have the patience to use the quote-code so it look quoted in the post. - Midway through this post I just realized I just did what grinds your gears.

I can't say most of them on here. :wink_smile:
1. Hearing about all of these cool PC games on here, but not being able to play them cause my PC can only play games from the 90's.
2. My parents half the time
And those are the two I can say. :hehe:

I had to really think....the only real thing lately that really makes me angry are the *dudes* in my neighborhood who have 1200 watt subwoofers in their vehicles and think that everybody else must actually enjoy hearing and feeling it....I know they don't care one way or the other, but I'd like to stuff sardines in their exhaust pipe in the middle of the night.....

Games ? Only CTD's. I've learned to save often. I don't play anything online, so I don't have to put up with any of the BS in online games.

Thats another thing that Grinds my Gears, except there right across the street, oh and they also sell a variety of drugs including meth.
And another thing that Grinds my Gears is when we've called the police on them for selling drugs and abusing there kids and the police don't do anything. :facepalm:

Well I'm not sure who you mean by "kids", but I'm fourteen and I never cry or scream into the mike. During the two or three months I actually had Black Ops even when I had my mike on I hardly ever spoke. Most of my friends forgot I was there. Like I said, even if mature kids are few, if they are mature I'm not going to blast them for playing x game because they are a certain age. I have heard advlts be much more immature then some kids I've heard. So the only reason I would tell a kid off is if he was kicking and screaming like your before mentioned young one.

I hear you. Same here. Makes me want to get my PA system out on the front porch and play Ralph Stanley banjo music full blast. I swear I'm gonna do that one of these days....but you and I both know I'd be the FIRST to get a ticket !

When people smack.
When people are arrogant.

Also this is a BIG one: People who seem to think they have some kind of authority over others

I too hate it too when people turn their base to max, and all you hear is that THUD THUD THUD. It really makes a guy want to break a few windows and radios. I would be doing them a service by preventing them from becoming deaf and listening to crappy music.
