what grinds your gears?!

[AzScorpion]

i have to keep my cool when people are having cell phone conversations over blue tooth or the ear bud things. they walk around like no one else exists blabbing all loud and stupid. its just rude and bad manners. of course they dont pay attention where they are going either. one guy walked right into me then gave me a look like it was fault. i wanted to remove his ear bud and smash it with my boot heel.

What's worse is when they're on speaker phone inside the store. It's so loud and obnoxious for one and two they think everyone wants to hear your darn conversation.

got a new gear grinder today. some one that takes the knife directly from the peanut butter or jelly and then sticks it in the other jar leaving lil blobs of the other item in the next jar. or when they get bread crumbs in the jars since they are not smart enough to clean the knife off first. trivial i know, but still annoying.

Leaving a shopping cart in the middle of the isle while you stroll 30 feet away making up your mind. All while acting like you’re the most important shopper in the store. Then they get an attitude when you politely clear your throat!

And... Even worse than that are the store employees that are picking orders for customer pickup. Their "carts" are bigger than the regular grocery cart, and they are absolutely oblivious to anyone else around them.

I am a delivery truck driver and the number of people I see walking with their back to the flow of traffic while wearing noise cancelling headphones is mind boggling. Combine that with people who park like they are recent graduates of a local school for the blind, and the idiots riding their bicycles against traffic, and soon my brain will be leaking out my ears

What was that? I can't hear you with my headphones on.

My biggest peeve is GRAMMAR. It drives me nuts to hear so many people butcher a phrase or not pay any attention to what they are actually saying. I work at a dealership and all day long I hear "VIN number". No such thing. What does the "N" in VIN stand for? It's just like saying "I'm going to the DMV vehicles. Couple of others you hear all the time.....hot water heater, I could care less, ATM machine, PIN number. The list goes on and on.......

RPMs. You don't need an "s" after RPM - Its Revolutions per Minute - not Revolutions per Minutes

agreed! that granny low in the ranger would be a hoot.
the near death of the manual transmission is annoying. i know in some models its not worth offering but you would think "fun" cars would all come with a manual and have option of automatic. in a way a manual transmission is almost like a safety feature. pretty tough to text and drive or update social media while having to shift gears.

It's to bad too because there'd be some great burn out pictures & videos. lol Plus I was looking forward to adding a new thread "How many sets of tires did you go through this month." ?

when your having a great dream (about the really cute lady whos car breaks down and for some reason she loves fat guys with rangers, no money and permanent cow lick) and wake up about 45 seconds too damn soon...

While using adaptive cruise behind someone a safe distance and another vehicle lanes changes in front of you, causing your vehicle to automatically brake.

Not learning from mistakes. The first time is a mistake, the second time, you're doing it on purpose. This was advice from my perfectionist grandfather, which I still use today.

Drivers who cut you off at a lane merge, but then don't pace traffic.

Those are just a few of mine....I have a lot more...

When you realize that the amount of tp left on the roll is a lot less than it looked like when you sat down and its too late to change your mind...

 

[RedSetters]

Wow, I think you have covered all my issues. Most of them are exactly my thoughts.

 

[9zero1790]

im sure a lot more exist. it is funny how many of us share the same things that aggravate us.
