Similar to the thread on GTPlanet.

AUP Applies, no swearing etc.

Say what Grinds Your Gears, and give a reason/explanation as to why it does so.

So what Grinds Your Gears?

Or what topic do you need to ramble on about to rid of your frustration?
 
My girlfriend... And I guess I'll just quote myself from the other thread to explain why:
Luminis
My girlfriend is creeping me out more and more everyday. She's crying her eyes out about the dumbest things... And she'd get it all sorted if she was to just, you know, use the time she's spending on crying about stuff to actually fix her problems. Which is all the more annoying, because it's small fries, really. Compared to the issues I've had during these last two to three years, I can't even comprehend why she's unhappy with her situation.

Best example: She had to do some sort of painting or whatever for her art class... Now, she's crying to me about how she had no time to get it done. Thing is, she went out shopping with her best female friend yesterday and spent all of today with another friend of hers riding horses. I mean, what the hell is she complaining about, to me?! She can't get it done in time because she's been idling around the whole week, what am I supposed to do about it?

And, of course, I'm not allowed to criticize her in any way, shape or form. This is driving me nuts, really.

You guys are forgetting who the real complainer is. You know what really Grinds My Gears? Running out of barbecue sauce. I was putting the condiments on my chicken burger when I grabbed the barbecue sauce *cues epic music* only to find there was none left, so I had to substitute ketchup. After I delved into my chickenburger, it just didn't have the 'kick' I have become accustomed to. It really ground my gears. Now my friends, that's a rant :P.
 
You know what Grinds my Gears?

Paper
Damn stuff is so rough it feels off your skin, it can't face water due to the fact it get's all sad and cut's a hole in it's stomach.. Just when you start to like it, it comes along and splits your finger in half, making you bleed until death.. If shouldn't exist, then newspapers would be made of something better than a shaved tree.
 
I couldnt possibly post them all, but I'll go with one that happens to me everyday.

People who refuse to turn right on red!!!!!!!
What are they waiting for, you don't need a green light!

There, now I feel better.
 
This thread needs a little boost... No posts in November! Not really, I'm just a little annoyed. :grumpy:

When people who are lazy and rely on other people all the time call you reliant on others and lazy when you as a matter of fact, aren't. They just want to annoy me because I don't let them borrow my things that I remembered and they didn't. :rolleyes:
 
Toothpaste, or anything in a tube really. Or any method of packing which causes some of the product to be wasted. Things need to come with an internal pushing mechanism that will force all of the product to the opening 💡. But, I suppose the added cost of this would probably be more than it would save. They do it with caulking though.
 
Radios. Finding the right station on my iPod dock so my music is clear and free of static or other radio stations is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Oh, and iTunes, which is one of the silliest programs ever developed.
 
What grinds my gears are politicians, most liberal and even some conservatives. Don't like were my country is going, too many people taking, and not enough giving back. 47% of our population doesn't even pay taxes, and Obama just wants spend us into bankruptcy. I like using common sense, like for instance if I don't have the money to buy something, I don't buy it. Can we get a Common Sense party, the other two are garbage most of the time.:indiff:
 
What grinds my gears is sore losers in Tag (Virus).

Why can't we all be friends?
People should give me a break.

I like ramming you! Over and over again! :D
So when you meet my pink X5... Be aware... :P
 
Most people who drive Audi's on Forza. They ram me, and the next race, they feel the wrath of my E28 M5. Oh how I love defeating tuned RS6s and R8s in it...
 
Isn't it just agitating when there is something to watch for an hour. Then nothing for half an hour. Then more stuff. WHY CAN'T THEY PUT SOMETHING GOOD ON in THAT SLOT!!!! :mad:

One mans junk is another mans Gold :sly:
 
I got whammed recently by a pal of mine, He got a gift card from a local electronics store, and guess what goddamn song that thing played when you pressed the little play button :grumpy:

Also, being stuck at work while I've got a hangover, am deprived of sleep and generally in a bad mood. And the Diablo III Beta is waiting for me to play it again, too. Yuk.
 
The fact that months after Forzaplanet's creation, I still can't go over to GTP without holding my nose for all the BS being spouted by an insecure minority of members, constantly trying to reassure themselves that they own the one and only true racing game, and apparently convinced holding a one sided poo flinging contest will do the trick.
The difference between that site and this one is amazing, but being a fan of both games, I would love to be able to get GT news without filtering through whiney people who can't get over the fact that there is another game, and that people actually like it.
Yes, I just came from GTP. Give me another 5 minutes and i'll go back to not carring about this one bit, or at least "just dealing with it" status....:D
