People that use dumb font and color combos. Seriously, what's the point of having the first word of every sentence yellow?

I do have to say it's annoying to quote them. Sometimes I remove the [/color] or even [/b] without noticing and the quote becomes a mess, which I have to fix :indiff:
 
The fact my mum doesn't want me to get an Xbox, despite me having enough money to buy one. The 2011 M5 is so nice though... :drool: And I'll be prepared to take a lot of hate from my PS3 biased friends.
 
It's your own damn money, you can buy whatever you well damn please.

I used to be like that. However, as you get older & start to become more financially responsible, you may realize that your mom may be trying to give you some money sense advice.

Have you asked her about it & why she doesn't want you to get one?

I didn't think of that. I'll talk to her later, and try and reason with her.

When your treated like you don't matter at school..

I don't get treated like anything. Few people ever talk to me, and when I try to talk to those people who don't talk to me, I get ignored.
It really grinds my gears because I just need some friends.

Don't sweat it. The harder you'll try, the less friends you'll get... That's my experience, at least.

Anyways, I just broke up with my girlfriend. Or rather, I dumped her, I guess. Wasn't pretty... And I had to do it via internet, too. She kept nagging me about what's wrong with me, why I wasn't responding to her overzealous declarations of love.

Ended up telling her that I don't see a future for the two of us. It wasn't nice of me to do so, but I had to end this before it became even more of a mess. She's been so overzealous, so, you know, pushy and, frankly, annoying I couldn't bear it anymore. Maybe I'm just not cut out for a relationship (right now, at least), I don't know.

What grinds my gears about it, though, is that I don't feel much. It felt like making a very simple decision, like buying a pair of new sneakers or something. Hell. I've been pondering the thought of whether or not to become a member of the local gym more than this one. I don't really feel bad about myself, either... Not after she told I had to stick with her, as she couldn't bear not having me as her boyfriend. It just felt like the right thing, but I still think I should've felt some sort of remorse.

If feel like a cold, unfeeling bastard right now, to be perfectly honest. Can't say that I dislike that any more than having to be around here for the rest of the weekend, starting tomorrow, though.
 
Differentiation in maths. I barely managed to get my head around it last year. Thanks to the long-ass summer break, 90% of what I had learned about it was forgotten.

We did that a couple of weeks ago, although I'm only 13!! It's the gradient of a curved line right? Our maths teacher is a bit mad, he randomly goes off topic to teach us A-Level stuff.

I've had no friends for 13 years.

You're not the only one... I only have one friend right now... and a girl had a crush on me, and had the same with her as well... But it quickly ended with her not liking me anymore... like dust in the wind.......... never having an opportunity to actually share our love........... and she barely cares anymore........ she even planned to like someone else.......... Oh well..., I guess.........







This is probably a bit too personal to share, but really.., this has been grinding my gears for weeks now..... And among others...

Am I annoying you VANDENAL? :lol: Not being mean, just funny.

I hope my signature doesn't annoy you, I've only done it that way so when somebody scrolls down they see a rainbow and stop to check it out.

OHHH NOOO!!!! YOU HAVE FOILED MY PLANS FOR SUPREME ANNOYANCE!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
That's weird that you can't see the colors, on my iPod Touch I can see the red in text, or are you on Android?

Yes I am. And it should have fixed my spelling of 'not' it looks like, but I didn't.

It gives a style, I have considered it too..

Yeah, I like the few people who make it look nice and keep it consistent, it gives a certain kind of style. I might but it's too much effort for me sometimes.

What grinds my gears?

1. Guys in our dorms blasting their rap music as if everybody loves it. No. Turn the volume down. (RAP = Retards Attempting Poetry :P )

2. Slow drivers. I'm a really bad speeder, but no tickets still! 👍
 
When I'm running and a Nissan Quest drives by me and it stinks like car.

The next day I'm running and a pickup truck goes by me and stinks. :(
 
This 🤬 manager of mine... she's so stupid...

I had work today at 5:30, I got there on time, but unfortunately, nature called and I had to use the washroom for about a good 7 minutes... I come out ready to work and she's rambling on like I'm her misbehaved child... CAN A MAN NOT USE A WASHROOM?! 🤬
 
Venting about an employer on a public website for all to see. Not wise, me thinks.
 
Like TB said, if she sees this, you're outta there. It's like Facebook, bosses usually search around for stuff they could use against you, I recommend you edit it and put something else in the place of it.
 
That's why I was nice and didn't quote him. ;)

Dude, I'm not working in an office or anything, she can't even speak English that well nor can she count money accurately. The chances of her knowing how to use a computer let alone play Gran Turismo is approximately 0.000000001%.

Thanks for being concerned, but rest assured, I'm in the safe zone.

Plus, they're already trying to get rid of people, which is in all honesty counter-productive; the store is actually lacking people and hours...
 
I wish I knew what a ricer is. I'm going to guess that it's some form of Japanese car....

Sound a bit racist to me. :odd:
 
People who call ALL civics "ricers" nothing pisses me off more.
It must be a local thing. I had a Civic and no one ever called it a ricer.

Some security guards at the hospital my wife works at thought it was an Si simply because it was a black coupe, but clearly they're not the smartest bunch.
