Anything sticky
Babies on planes

Cheap people
People,who while listening to headphones/earbuds, do the rapper arm/hand movements and dance/bob their head in public.
People/kids who bring skateboards on planes
People who talk in a different voice to their pets
Fat chicks in yoga pants

Just a few off the top of my head....

Simply stating "people" will suffice.

I got a lot, but today's number one pick is: people who are too lazy to return the shopping carts to the store or the shopping cart corral, and just leave the cart right in an empty parking space. :x

People in front of you that buy lotto tickets with pennies and nickels.

The government for luring poor people with false hopes into using their last pennies and nickels to play the dumbest form of gambling known to man.

Waiting patiently for a parking space only to have someone zip in front of you and take it. Happened just the other day.

It grinds my gears, that's for sure! :x

How about inhaling soda pop down your windpipe? Oh, now that really grinds my gears!

People that drive 10 MPH under the speed limit in no passing zones and then speed up when there is a chance to pass only to slow back down again in the next no passing zone.

he.who.forgets

people who use 100 different coupons at the grocery store and then have the nerve to write a fucking check :fp:
Also, assholes who will drive in two lanes (one regular lane and one merge lane) to prevent anyone from merging from the right or passing on the left.

josevolution

People who start those GA LINE UP LIST :P :P besides that nothing bothers me at all ..

kind of, i actually almost named this thread "the airing of grievances", but i thought that could get a little heavy. "grinds my gears" is a lighter hearted version of airing of grievances i guess.

Nice!

In the spirit up Festivus, to add to he.who.forgets' post: Drivers who do not know how to merge. It's not that difficult, people. Also, "yield" means to yield to oncoming traffic; not, speed up so you can cut them off and almost cause an accident. Jackass.

I think the 'yielding' aspect to driving is one that many simply cannot understand.

I think they think that sign means, "Oh. Oh you mean those other people are going to yield for me so I can enter the highway!"

I drive past an entranceway that gives me grief daily on my way to work. Soon... very soon... I may just loooose it.

what grinds my gears is not trying for the next up or down gear in enough time and losing too much speed to get it in. Oh yeah, what also grinds my gears is trying to go into the high side at low side speeds!!

Very bad ice storm! No power or heat! This really blows! Downed power lines and trees......fun shit!

This sounds pretty fun for sure.

Throw in a shitty ice scraper and you are fooked.

Still no fucking power. Staying with various friends and family. Now starting to worry about pipes freezing. Left some faucets open a little. This is far from over. :fp:
