Yeah, but it depends on if the troll is smart or not. It would be smarter to get into a troll-bidding war with somebody who bids like on said item their life depends on it. A dumb troll would raise the price by 50% on something that nobody has any interest in.

No problem, most Internet trolls are stupid. :p
 
Not being able to watch the 24 hour Rolex because:
1)I'm tired
2) Stream is a bit shaky on my phone
3) I don't have the patience to sit through these cautions! They seem to take forever! Why? Or am I the only one that thinks this?

But it's really cool I've never watched an Endurance race before.

Hey, I'm not dumb... :p Seriously though, I don't think I'd be THAT stupid.

:lol: You never know.

Current gear grinder is that my earbuds keep popping out while listening to music. Also my idiot brother put Phineas and Pherb on for whatever reason. :rolleyes: I keep seeing the platypus and think of Famine's old avatar. :p
 
Not having any friggin' orange soda to drink right now! And every time I start playing Gutterball on my iPad it exits for no real reason in the middle of a game. :ouch:

I'm still really pissed I can't go to the autoshow. I was really excited to go. :( I haven't even been this excited since Battlefield 3 came out which was quite a while ago. Well, this is just great for my already annoyed mood.
 
Smokers grind my gears. It seems like everywhere I go in public I'm always greeted with the putrid smell of cigarettes, even when there's no smokers to be seen. And if I'm not being tormented by the smell of smoke, then there's always a crying baby instead. :dunce: I swear it's always one or the other.

👍 Or a bunch of teenagers having an inappropriate conversation very loudly as 6 year olds walk past with their parents. :mad:

My Dad smoked a lot a few years back. Everywhere I went with him I always caught the smell of nicotine. Even all of his clothes had that putrid odor. He had to eat up quite a bit of our finances to afford boxes of cigarettes, of course. But he decided to quit, which was a feat even for him. Right now he's completely off of it, and currently avoids cigarettes at all costs, even if his friends smokes as much as he once does & they have a blast doing so.


And by the way, my teeth sockets are a lot better now. But it isn't completely restored yet and still have to take some painkillers/antibiotics in the morning.

Good to hear that they're feeling better, having any kind of dental work done sucks.
 
That's I have to go rowing today in the freezing cold. I'm going turn into an icecube.
 
That my girlfriend gets so snippy every month. She even tells me it's for that reason when she's in a good mood, but then 10 minutes later she gets so angry at everything. She slept in until 10:30, and then only woke up because she told me to call. I was trying to get her up for the past hour, when her mom walks in and tells her to get up because she's going to go with her dad to practice parallel parking. After that she got all 🤬 because she didn't want to go practice that, when last weekend she was telling me about how she never gets to practice driving. I said hey at least you get to practice and she just gets all upset that I have a point, and says she didn't want to today. She refuses to answer her phone now, over something stupid. It's really really annoying.

The fact I will never be a professional race car driver grinds my gears. It would be so awesome. But never will it happen.

There's no money for me to enter some form of racing. Sure you start at a local track with some beat up four cylinder piece of crap, but there's fuel costs, tire costs, transportation (my nearest track is an hour and a half away), buying the car, maintaining it, repairing it, even reinforcing it and adding a roll cage. Fire suit, entry fees... It all adds up. Plus I'm 14 years old so I can't get a job for two more years!

Also grinding my gears, the way the British commentator on the Speed channel for the Rolex 24 says Daytona like 'Daytonar'.
 
an autistic person commented on how tubby my father was. i wanted to box in his face so far in that you can fill the gap with a cup of water.

That's not as bad as a non autistic person calling you (rather than your father) chubby. I've had that happen plenty of times.

It's not as bad as speed's f1 commentators who pronounce Renault Ray-know.

And every time I watch the Senna movie, I am irritated by the way John Bisignano pronounces Prost "Pro st". 👎 I think it was also him that pronounced Alain "A Lane".

What's it supposed to be? I'm not knowledgeable on F1.

As it's a French name, it's not the same as the English language name Alan. It's more like "A Laan". There's more of an emphasis on the second A. The "O" in the surname is the same as the "O' in "of"

Edit:
I just feel that when you're talking about a legend, you should get the name right.

Bisignano did at least pronounce Senna's first name correctly. "Ay Air ton" There's a funny story about Murray Walker and Senna with regards to the pronunciation.
 
My little brother grinds my gears. He has the worst sportsmanship of anyone I know.
