What Grinds your Gears?

[Azure Flare]

Having nothing to do right now is grinding my gears.

I know right?

 

[Luminis]

Headaches. Headaches and running out of medicine while being stuck in front of a computer at work.

 

[nobuffalo]

Bad syncros... Ha, ha ha.

People who shout their butts off, and when you start to get a bit loud they yell at you to shut up

^ Those budget games on PS2 that you know suck as soon as you look at the case, but don't.

Hmmm, you see, some of them do though, I mean, personal taste wise, if you see a game about raising a horse, you see it and think, that sucks, I didn't mean that are generally bad (but Paris Dakar Rally has no excuses, I mean, the idea is brilliant, it's based off a massive enduro rally, but the gameplay is really bad, and it is a budget game)

The army advert saying there is an army career for you when I know there isn't for me due to a medical condition. Its something i would enjoy as a job as well.

You're right. And that accounts for roughly 75% of all games released on the Nintendo DS and the Nintendo Wii

Same thing happened to me.

This!

My retaliation, however, is to speak even louder.

No no no, I understand what you meant. What I mean is that I hate games that looks like crap because of the cover, only to find out later that the game is actually brilliant.

You know what really grinds my gears?

Living in England, the home of the "Larger Lout", and only having 1 actual British beer...Carling, which tastes even worse than Fosters!

I mean what the hell?!

 

[MercilessOne]

You know what grinds my gears?






...improper shifting.

I was about to say Unsynchronized Transmissions! With Straight-Cut Gears!

Depends, most main stream lagers are fizzy ****-water anyway.. you ask for english beers? there are hundreds, you just have to get to the hand-pulled end of the bar and stop getting attracted by shiny wet neon beer fonts.

 

[Luminis]

God... You guys talking about beer created another gear grinder for me:
Not having a single bottle of my favourite beer available right now.

Schloßbräu Odin-Trunk.

Ohhhh, I see, I agree with that, like TDU on PS2, looks bad but is REALLY REALLY fun

R: Racing Evolution. Fun racing game with great physics, but some races are too hard.

People typing poetry on their status in Facebook

 

[Skython]

What's so annoying about poetry status'

 

[Pyle_PMG]

Nothing in my opinion. Poetry is a good way to express ones feelings. What Grinds My Gears? Unsynchronized clocks in my house, and people who drink the last of my Dr. Pepper.

Ah, I see what I typed now...meant to say having no decent british Larger grinds my gears...

Actual Beers, we do pretty good there, same with Ales.

You'd hate my current status on there then, it's a rap.

That's a perfect example, now that I think of it!

Great game, but the lack of manual gears puts me off.

Native English speakers who use crap grammar on forums.

When I become the teachers scapegoat for punishment. I do as little wprk as half the class, do aswell as half the class and I get extra homework, detention etc. It's like the teachers use me as some sort of of ****bot to show the class what can happen if you don't work. However no-one cares because i'm the only one that seems to get into trouble for whatever you know. It pee's me off more because it's happened twice in one week for stuff that is not my fault.

 

[VRracingfan]

When people get annoyed with me taking my retainer off infront of them even though I warn them in advance and then they stare at me whilst i'm taking it off but still get angry with me after.

When people jump to conclusions before i've finished talking
People that think motorsports are easy or essentially just ignorant people.
People who don't understand your point of view no matter how many people explain it
When people change words that I say or blatantly change events that have happened in
the past
Smug people
Attention seekers
Vain people

I'm not an angry person like you may think but there's just stuff I want to get off my chest.

 

[Pyle_PMG]

Same thing about the retainer thing with me. You could tell them 100 times before you take it off, but because people are genuine idiots, they watch.

 

[tfujiwara]

What's so annoying about poetry status'

When I log on, I want to see how my friends are doing. By looking at new statuses. But what I see is just quotes, love quotes, and peoms and mini love poems. Its supose to be "just got done doing this...", "just ate a a meal..was good", "anyone watching the game?" but Its not.

People who walk slow & then when you start to walk by them, they move in front of you.

Repeat 2-3 more times.

The same people who suddenly stop & stand in the middle of high traffic areas in buildings.

Went through a lot of these idiots while on vacations. Buddy almost ended up a fight with one.

I hate that!

I usually adjust my walking pace when I notice such a person ahead. It's even worse when there's two or three of them standing almost shoulder to shoulder.

Yeah, that kind of pedestrian is just horrible. Personally, I can take it a few times in a row, but on certain days, there are so many of them that I get fed up somewhen.

Also:
People who're walking towards you and won't make any room for you to pass them. At all. After squeezing past a few of them, I get so annoyed that I just run the next guy who does so over
