Do You Know What Really Grinds My Gears?

[TL1961]

Blue tooth phone talkers.

It's always when I am at the grocery store and some bama is staring right at me and seemingly talking right at me.
I give them a puzzled look and say something Special person like " what's that, or excuse me" And I get this blank stare as they still go on about talking loudly.
I then say something declarative like "Oh, you're on your headset" And I get nothing back. No "YEAH sorry I was not talking to you." Nothing. NOTHING.
Hell, this one time this guy even starting talking to the other person in his ear saying " Oh no, that's just some guy, he thinks I am talking to him" All the while, never acknowledging me.
And this happens in my world over and over.
It grinds my gears.


I think one day I am going to go to the market with my Sony Walkman and when I get that dumb blank star talk from someone, I will pretend to do it back until I make then absolutely uncomfortable like I am when they do it to me.


What grinds yuns gears?

If you’re using a Walkman you are the one who should be uncomfortable.

Wearing a Steve Bartman costume in public is creepy.

Only when I grocery shop with bluetoothers.

Tailgaters. I'm going to brake check your ass, dipshit. Back the F up.

In a similar vein, people that go under the speed limit in the left lane and force people to pass on the right. Also people that can't be bothered to use their fucking turn signal.

More message board related.

When a poster quotes the OP of a thread to comment on the thread. For example: The OP is some long 12 paragraph breakdown of the Chicago Bears defensive line and some dorkchop quotes the entire thing just to say,

"Good read!"

You could have left that comment without giving my scroll feature even more work and everyone would have known what read was so good, but noooo....

Interestingly enough, I just tried to do this to troll you and ended up trolling myself. This fancy new site makes you expand a long quoted post.

When people need to use their phones at every fucking red light. What can’t wait until you reach your damn destination. It’s bad enough the jack ass on the highway texting and driving swerving and dropping speed 20 mph because the text to the booo is so damn important. But now we also have to endure getting stuck in traffic and missing lights cause some worthless piece of trash has to have a full text conversation at a red light

This made me think of another one, which could be the same thing, but not always.

When you're sitting in a turning lane and the line is really long, arrow turns green, and ******* go a full 5 seconds apart. Mother *******, go!! I don't want to sit through another light because you have the reaction time of a sloth.

It's because they are all sitting on their phone...

Yeah, maybe. But I think some people just aren't paying attention or have any consideration for the people behind them.

 

[nvanprooyen]

People who don't put their fucking carts back at the grocery store. It especially pisses me off when I go to pull into a spot and there is a cart sitting right in the middle of it, and I can't pull in all the way.

Another good reason to shop at Aldi

I am retreading, I'm sure... but

People who walk on the left side of any sidewalk or walkway by default.

Downtown rush hour people who meander or trundle or any other word for walking slowly without paying attention to the fact you are on the sidewalk version of an expressway.

Generally people who don't have the decency to be aware enough to know they are in the way.

- Stand in the middle of an aisle at a store
- Stand in the middle of a sidewalk/walkway
- Stand in a doorway or path to a doorway

People who phone and walk, at this point people just don't take their attention off their smart phones... and I am a smart phone toting Millennial, and I see way too much of it in my generation and older/younger as well. If you are driving, get off your phone.... if you are walking... get off your phone, if you need your attention on your phone... get out of the way or wait until you can get out of the way.

Lastly, any of you ******* who let your children loose in public... airports, restaurants, stores, etc... **** you.

(When I say loose, I mean truly loose... you pay no attention to what they're doing, where they're going, etc)

People that can't wrap up their thought in a concise post and instead ramble on and on and on until every centileter of brane power has been exhausted to say something that could have been said in less than four sentences but instead turn into a 10 page novel that quite frankly no one has the time to read and people usually take a hike halfway through because the OP couldn't put a fucking sock in it soon enough for readers to read the entire post and move on with their life that they just want to live but cant because poster in question just wont quit typing meaningless words until they are literally out of breath from typing said words over and over.

I don’t get why people do this. Why would you do something that has a high risk of causing an accident or road rage incident especially something as unnecessary as this? Sure they’ll get off of your ass for a few seconds afterwards but then they’ll go right back to tailgating. Just speed up or move over and let them pass. Be the better person and understand that two wrongs don’t make a right.

This reminds me of a story. I'll be brief, so that Grimson can get to the end.

I cut lawns during the summer in high school, and this one townhouse complex we did, people would literally open their living room window and chuck shit out onto the lawns. I was doing the line trimming one day, and in front of one unit, in the back corner of the complex. I wrote in 6 foot letters PIGS in the lawn.

I went back after doing the rounds to mark it out before my boss got there on the riding mower. I was too late, and saw he had mowed a rectangle around PIGS.

Complete ignoramuses in the gym who steal your machine.

Happened today, but it was a MILF so I let it slide
