When people assume that me thinking Rainbows are cool means I'm gay.
Last time I checked, my 🤬 wasn't a 7 colored striped arch! And I'm fairly sure the same can be said about most other men.
Who decided the refraction of light was homosexual anyway? What the hell happened to Pink Floyd and Skittles? I get that it's used as a symbol of gay pride, but that's like saying anyone who thinks stars are cool is an American because there are stars on the American flag.

Also, I've noticed a trend in this thread, most of what grinds peoples gears can all be brought back to people being ignorant.
 
^👍

The other day I was drawing a rainbow with crayons. And everybody kept telling me I was childish and gay. Seriously? I mean, the rainbow misconception/stereotype I can understand, but being childish because I like the effect of crayons more? That sucks.

Probably going to shock a few thousand people here when I say this. Nothing grinds my gears. Forget what I said in the many posts I made in this thread previously. I've been depressed for a long time but today I finally found the preverbial light switch, and found the answer to cure my sadness that took over me. You see, everything happens for a reason, and everybody has a purpose. Some people's path to success are longer than others, and the tougher the path, the more value the reward at the end has. I made a promise to myself, no matter what happens around me, I can't control, I need to relax and let things happen. I need to lose my ego and rid the false sense of entitlement I previously had. If I want good things to happen I have to do those good things. Like if I want that Chevy in the backyard, I got to wash dishes, vacuum, feed pets etc. I have to put a positive spin on everything. Like doing that English ISP, if I put the time in and do well, I can get that good job one day. 👍 I love life!

Picture this with no brush guard, really nice wheels, debadged, everything on the body white, and 2 Hella lights on the front. Show quality.





And then you look on the windshield and see "HOOD RAT REDNECK" and that's f'ing annoying

It's good to not care about your ego, having an ego is boring, for example: I am the most anti Ego person I know, and I haven't been depressed since March, last time before that... ... ... ... ... ... Mid 2009, before that... ... ... ... ... NEVER!!!!!

You discovered masturbating?

Juvenile jokes aside, I congratulate you. Now go on and enjoy life.
 
Overhearing a customers' conversation while I was putting merchandise away ignoring them
kid: she said in Aisle 5 on the right hand side. *looks at stickers on the left hand side and doesn't go looking for whatever they're looking for*
mom: Well, did she tell you around where? How are we suppose to know where it is?

🤬 STUPID PEOPLE, GOD!
 
What grinds my gears....

When I type a long post in response to something on this thread and when I press post reply the internet losses connection and then I press 'try again' and 'resend info' but the stupid thing doesn't send my post and I can't be bothered to type it again because I have a class starting soon. Stupid internet.
 
Solution: Copy it, and test to make sure it copied, before you hit post.

That's well to much hassle just to make a post. It would be better if my company just spent a bit more money on a descent internet service/ equipment.

Just had a similar problem, only with Chrome's shortcut keys. Every once in a while I bump the touch-pad on my laptop and it moves the cursor outside of text box on the site, and when I hit Backspace to correct something, it end's up going back a page and everything I typed is lost.
 
🤬 Photoshop, why can't the mother 🤬 thing do what I'm telling it to do. Even the 🤬 guides and stupid tutorials don't 🤬 work, it just keeps on coming up with 🤬 🤬 error messages, stupid 🤬
 
Lets see... Knee problems, hip problems, back pain, and pain in my wrist and fingers. Why do I have these pains when I'm only 19!
 
When it's humid out and my parents don't want to turn on the A/C, so I have to deal as best I can with being hot and sticky...:indiff:
 
Getting a free PS3, only to find out GT5 sucks big time.




I'm glad I didn't bought one, though. :D

Not really, you just Ctrl+A to highlight the post and copy it...
 
What grinds my gears? Homeworks. Plain and simple.

And parents that gets mad every now and then. I just hate it when they're angry.

That is something that slightly annoys me.
Something else, the fact that I live in the middle of no where. But then again, that probably keeps me out of trouble.
 
Living in the middle of nowhere is awesome though, just means there's less people to rob you, less people to make noise and wake you in the night, etc. I live in banjo country a farm, and I love it

I hate homework. When I was in lower senior school I refused to do it on the grounds that I went to school to do work, why should I spend my free time also doing work? They said it was to prepare me for the real world, work and such.

I gave them a letter from my grandfather that said most evenings I was working with him on his cars and that it was more preparation for work than homework could offer. The school were unhappy but I didn't get anymore homework.

Now I'm a school teacher and providing my students finish all their work in class I will never give them any home work. I tell them to go out and play and enjoy their youth because when they get to uni they'll be doing nothing but course work.

Even worse then Homework? Worksheets. Worksheets had to have been created by Satan himself. Although there are many reasons why I like College much more than High School, the #1 reason easily is that I no longer have to do worksheets and/or other assorted busywork.
