Lol, you know what, everyone has his own taste, even in food. Normally I stick with Western cuisine, feeling rich and eating spaghetti, ribs, and stuff. I don't like seafood, local and Oriental cuisine that much though.

What grinds my gears now? Same as VANDENAL, a whining mom. Also extreme lag in my PC. Even though I cleaned the viruses away, still Internet is slow and windows won't open up properly. COME ON SKYPE, STOP HANGING UP!

Your right, nothing is wrong. At the time, I was very salty because I can't beat his HP.DP after he does his LP.DP. He even beat Chun's EX SBK...

I'm quite a "flashy" Ken player. Good enough to destroy and infuriate my friends, but if I was to go online, I would get thrashed. One of my friends lost 10-0 to me, went home and came back the next week. With a smile on his face, he asks "shall we play street fighter?". I agreed and he came close to beating me in round 1 of our first fight. He told me that he bought sf 4 and had been practicing.

After I was 32-0 up, he didn't have a smile on his face. He came close a few times, but I always got the best of him. At one point, he even studied the "character moves" screen for a few minutes.
 
Just arrived in Italy, I had the most awful plane ride EVA.

There was a big pile of fat in front of me weighing down the seat and it kept falling into me, I was cramped up with all the holiday trash, clothes, food, tampons, you name it.

The heat made my sausage swivel and I couldn't get a drink for ages, only after the long Bus ride, of which I needed a leak the whole time. After a while we get to the hotel, I saw so many Lancia's, had no idea they were so common over here, Lancia seem to make every kind of car, it's just nobody cares about them outside of Italy. Also a ton of old Fiat 500's.

At our hotel there is a swimming pool, and as I went down to it, there was a 60 year old crusted raisin faced woman with leather thighs climbing down into the pool, I was almost sick.

So, things grind my gears.
 
Big one here: got my scheduling for my Sophomore year and the classes I most wanted, French 3 in the 1st semester, French 4 in the 2nd semester, did not show up anywhere because I was dumb and put Academic Sports League on my scheduling form so now I have that instead of French and I'm really pissed and 🤬

Did I mention I'm on no sleep?

Aside from a bad journey, I'm here for 3 weeks, we are moving location every two days, and in 2 weeks, we're visiting the island of Ibiza.

Well, a good whooping is always great.
 
Well today was just one of those days.

I went to the art gallery of ontario (AGO) and enjoyed it right up until I went to open the door and as I did, this girl came charging through as if I opened the door for her. Her friends stopped and let me through and looked embarrassed. Then later, walking on Dundas, I was crossing on amber and some guy chose to ignore the fact that me any my girlfriend were not only crossing the road, but also had the right of way.

I literally had to forcibly grab my girlfriend and pull her onto the pavement(sidewalk). Enjoy cleaning my spit off your car 🤬.

I dropped my girlfriend off at work and headed back home. I got to a busy intersection (queen and university) and despite having the right of way (again) I almost got run over by a girl who was clearly driving "daddies" Porsche. At least she had the decency to stop and say sorry.
 
What grinds my gears.......my cooking abilities, or lack of.

On Tuesday I bought a toaster oven so that I could show my wife the joys of grilling/ roasting/ baking. In the same market I bought some chocolate brownie mix which was imported from the U.S. so was expensive but I wanted it anyway.

Last night I mixed up the ingredients completely wrong; too much water, too much oil, not enough egg. To compensate for the excess of water I added some flour which seemed to work. Upon putting it in the oven the whole thing doubled in size and went everywhere and was ruined.

I've now been banned from any form of food cooking in my own kitchen by my wife. The only thing I'm allowed to do is make pizza because I make those well. Very frustrating.
 
What grinds my gears? I just feel crap. I have to claw my way through everyday. Nothing is easy. NOTHING. @JaiAE86: Toast not even buttered? What airline was it? Westjet? :lol:

This thread is to whinge about stuff we don't like..
 
I know that's what this thread is about but my god some of the petty stuff people complain about is just mind numbing....

What grinds my gears? Crap on TV like Jersey Shore or Geordie Shore, do we really need shows so terrible on TV to cater for the average idiot? Don't get me wrong, I wish I was on those shows so I'd earn the money they're on but it does my head in to think people really are like that....

Isn't that just trolling?
 
You expect far too much far too often....It's an Italian hotel in Italy, Italy has Italian TV stations, Italians speak Italian in Italy. See the connection?
