The Washington Redskins. My favourite NFL team, but they always grind my gears. We need a quarterback, we draft 3 wide receivers and a cornerback :banghead:. :mad:
 
My girlfriend's new tattoo. She's getting it right now, as I'm typing this. I think it looks friggin' horrible, but what am I going to tell her?
I can hardly walk up to her and be like "oh, yeah, looks crappy, if you're asking me, please cover it whenever possible"...

And she's so enthusiastic about it, to boot.
:indiff:

There's just some things you got to put up with unfortunately.
 
My false sense of entitlement grinds my gears. I know I'm always wrong even though I think I'm right.
 
I caught a cold a couple of days ago and now my whole weekend is ruined because I feel like crap. :ill:
 
The numerous threads in the GT5 section going "zOMG PSN IZ BAK UP!!1!!!"
I've seen at least five all over the GT5 section (Drifting, Marketplace, Q&A).
I think that Jordan needs to put a post limit back up: all the closed threads seem to be made by people with less than 50 posts :irked:.
 
I hate it when you're trying to talk to someone, but multiple people walk up and randomly start talking to them about something completely irrelevant without so much as an "excuse me".

YAY PSN IS BACK UP! I'M HEADIN' FOR THE ONLINE DRAGS TONIGHT! Wait, no I'm not, only California and New England get PSN service tonight. ARGH FACEPALM

PSN's back up??? That's news to me

My buddy does and he's in Canada like I am.
 
Just checked, still no service.

Ah well, great opportunity to add the racing gearbox to my Taurus and tune out the understeer. I guess.

UPDATE: According to the service map, PSN coverage is slowly moving westward... AK should be online by tomorrow night. I hope.

All my efforts with the Taurus failed. Even with extreme suspension adjustments it still understeers horribly, and even with the FC transmission + hard tires (lower rolling resistance) I can't get it over 180mph.

Justin Bieber.

I'm 12 and listen to 70s and 80s ROCK MUSIC!!!

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
 
Well, there are just as many drag rooms now as there were before the PSN outage, but there are far fewer good ones. Most of the cars I've seen are either a. Veyrons, b. Enzos (which are just about as fast as Veyrons), or c. X1s. If you do find someone running a lesser car, either a. you won't get to race them, b. they continue sitting at the line after the announced start time, or c. Murphy's Law kicks in and you get a horrible reaction time/launch. ARGH
 
Nothing like the classics, I'm 14 YEEEEEEAAAAAAHH

And by the time you hit 17 you'll figure out that the biggest name classic rock bands have gotten old, and by 18 you listen almost exclusively to country and southern rock, driving around in an old pickup you're seriously thinking about putting a rebel flag license plate on the front of
 
What grinds my gears is people who constantly remind me Beiber exists.
It's bad enough I have to live on the same planet he does, but do I constantly need to be reminded of it every time I use the internet?

I can't stand those I'm from connecticut, no redneck and don't like country :D so not the kind of person you describe
 
Todays new music -when compared to 60s, 70s, 80s, heck even 90s rock- is garbage. I know what Justin Bieber should sing 'if I was a guy'. The fact that he sucks, YET everybody likes him grinds my gears.
 
My life, I've been depressed since last 5 years but now it got even worse, I'm bored all the time, nothing seems to make me happy or satisfied, most of the time I feel like I'm half asleep or time is slowing down and I'm absolutely unmotivated to do anything. I don't even want to start a relationship and I'm immune to flirting, I don't feel anything at all.
Psychiatrist can't help me with their funny colorful pills and I've completely lost all interest in living my life.:indiff:

All I do besides working in my gray, dull and stupid office is sleeping 10 hours a day, eating and weight lifting 3 hours a day to let off some steam. Exercise is actually the only thing that makes me feel better and keeps me away from drug abuse, benching 230 10 reps 5 stints and curling 100 makes me feel alive for short time, its the only thing I look forward to when I wake up.

Yep, really grinds my gears.
