Happened in my math class once, I was sitting at the back I felt it trying to come out so I tried to do a "stealth fart" and it backfired. It squeaked really loudly and everyone was looking at me. I got a lucky escape though as I pointed at the person next to me.

Why be embarrassed? I let out massive rippers all of the time in class. Also do some really foul smelling silents.
 
I go to a big school, about 1,000 middle schoolers. Now, even with our open campus, it still gets crowded as hell during passing periods. And this is what usually happens : There's me, heading to the next class, maybe with a friend, depending on the period. Now, I'm weaving through everybody, and then bam! I'm face to face with somebody heading in the opposite direction, so then you have that awkward moment when both people move left, then right, and can't seem to get out of eachother's way. It gets old fast, and it happens probably 3 times a day. :dunce:

Second that. Or do what I did and pull a blade on them and have them avoid you forever because they think you're a lunatic. I never really got bullied for this reason. ;)

Can't do that anymore. Government released a thing yesterday saying anyone who threatens with a knife automatically goes to prison for 3 years or something.

Much safer idea than Shem's.
 
Its not threatening if you just hold it and point at it in a surprised way in your hand and say:

"Oh, look at this! What is this? Do you know what this is? I'm surprised, I could have sworn I didn't have this..."

Then they'll get the message

I'm a bit of a goody two shoes though.

So am I, but when you got to go, you got to go!

Even in the presence of the Pope I would let one rip (but that's because I'm not catholic and don't believe in any god or support any religion).

Clever boy. How did you break it?
 
Some xbox fanboy at school who can't hear a bad word about the 360. And then he said Failo Halo is better than Uncharted. Overstatement of the year. 👎 :yuck:
 
When people write stuff on Facebook like "bad mood". Be.more specific. But I'm nnot gonna lie, I do.it, but I regret doing tthat because I look back and it's like facepalm.

Oh I hate that. Especially when girls post a sad face, someone comments "whats the matter", and they say "dont worry" or "it doesnt matter". Why post a status then you moron? I dont want to read 🤬 if it "doesnt matter". Stop wasting my time!

Fanboys are just plain annoying.

I feel sorry for you. I have a few close friends, most if them car nuts like me. Others just think I'm odd liking cars so much, but if I tone down the car talk they are happy to be around me.

That's a gear-grinder of mine, also. I too, don't have friends. Don't worry though. It'll get better. You seem like a good enough person to have some. ;)
 
How everyone in my class was arguing whether the dog in blues clues is a boy or girl. Who the **** cares?
 
It's a girl.



:sly:
Also Magenta, who's Blue's cousin (or friend, not too sure) is a boy.

The leather pouch was far to weak for the power of the bands (Thema band Blacks) and ripped.

I had a spare pouch so set about fitting that, but in the process nicked the band which then ripped when I used the Slingshot again :grumpy:

So have now had to fork out for a new set of bands (Thema band Blues this time)

Well, it seems that you, Ryou, and Jai should could help each other out in that respect.
 
Not being good enough. Have nothing but 90's in all my classes, but my parents think I'm not trying. I try to balance work with friends, but they don't want to hang out any more. My girlfriend says how I don't seem interested all the time, but it's only because only very mild PDA is acceptable to me. Got b*%#^*+ at all of today, and it is surely a gear grinder.
 
I have similar problems rb26x. I get high-80s in my classes and my parents say you can still do better. My friends are slowly involving me less and less. At least I don't have a girlfriend (so I don't have to deal with a bitch). So I have it slightly less stressful.

The thing is, it never stops. Everything is getting worse. I know that there's nothing I can do though, except wait. Once I go off to college or move out in some way, the only problems I'm dealing with are my own. As for the girlfriend, I've liked other girls, but they were just problems, and I've always been against a girlfriend. But when you actually would rather hang out with a girl then do what you originally wanted, that's when I thought that it's a good decision. She just gets like this because she has the same problems I do, losing friends, and her family doesn't trust or listen to her at all.

I as well have no friends. I have two that's close but that's it. There's also a couple who respect me, but not really is my "friends" (details lie somewhere in this thread..). Another gear-grinder is similar to Daniel's, but it's all too confusing..
 
To the whole not having friends thing, that used to grind my gears, but I've finally gotten through it for the most part. My advice to you if if you are still in school get involved in activities. As nerdy as it is, I'm in marching band and those are the best people I have ever met. They are the kindest, most caring, helpful people. I was, and still am, shy, but we are like a family. So if.you.get a chance, do curricular activites.

Grinding my gears today would be girls. Actually one girl in particular. Need I say more, or you got it?

I find the majority of girls in my country are like that.
Stuff like this is one if the reasons why I don't use Facebook, I just can't stand stuff of this nature. Attention seekers are on my top ten list of things that grind my gears.
 
Having too many mates can be a gear grinder. Having to make time for them all can be difficult.

My western friends terrify my Chinese friends and are all drunks, my Chinese friends don't like to drink beer and would rather go to a club and drink whiskey and meet girls (not interested), my co-worker friends won't drink with my out of work friends because they work for different (rival) companies. It's a pain in the 'arris.

On top of that I need to find time for myself and Mrs Shem!
