    Even worse is when people stop playing when down double digits and start taking 5 and 8 second violations. It's stupid.

    You are right though, great argument against always online games.

        You know what really grinds my gears?

        Friends that text you that they haven't seen you in a while, and miss hanging out but when you try to set up a date to do something they cancel on you. Then like clockwork they text you "Why do we never hang out anymore?"

        Because you're never available. At this point I'm not even going to ask them anymore they need to be the ones to facilitate.

          To piggyback off of that ending relationships with friends simply by not being the one to facilitate/plan things. I hate always being the one to make plans to hang out or do something. When I stop then the whole thing stops. Its bittersweet.

            Didn't they go fully free at one point? It was bound to happen.

                  You know what really grinds my gears?

                  People who didn't get hit by the snow talking about their weather and how they're not buried in snow.

                  How original!

                  On the flip side, we get it. You drank a lot since you were snowed in. That's pretty cool man!

                  I would've drank a good portion too, but I don't need to let everyone know about it. I wasn't home, actually in a warm weather climate, but didn't need to tell everyone the daily temps here either.

                  Nothing is anyone's own anymore. They can't just let it be and enjoy it. They have to boast about it or rub it in everyone else's face or take a hundred selfies with it. Take a moment to shut up and just be there.

                  I use social media too, and I know that's what it's for, to share experiences. But it's become more about sharing the experience then the actual experience. It's all so disingenuous.

                  I don't associate with this generation. Hell, I don't associate with the people at large. The general public sucks. Selfish, unaware, disrespectful idiots.

                      Steeler fans all of a sudden being temporary Broncos fans and feeling the need to tell me since they know I'm a Broncos fan.

                        People complaining about the hype of the superbowl. It's very easy to avoid. You don't have to watch or listen to espn/nfl network/talk radio 24 hours a day if you don't want to hear it.

                            "I haven't looked at my paystub all year, but my W-2 shows no state withholding. How can this be?"

                            Sometimes I want to continuously slap people.

                                Exactly. I already know I'm about to fall out of friendship with the two individuals in question; just tired of actually making an attempt to continue the friendship and them brushing me off. (and no I don't count texting once a week as 'friendship')

                                It's a shame because they are cool individuals and we always have a great time when we get together but I think they just try to take on too many things at once, or are just people pleasers and can't say no to something.. even if they made prior plans.

                                I don't know if I'm just old 25 going on 26, but I understand exactly where you are coming from.

                                Since when did it become the cool thing to brag about how drunk you got? This was really bad at my old workplace where there were a lot of younger aged adults (18-23) and every Monday the majority of them would be going on about how Hammered they got, and all the crazy things they did over the Weekend.

                                Who cares that you got obscenely drunk and slept with a variety of members of the opposite sex? This is both girls, and guys doing this; and my reaction to them was "Really, this is what's cool these days?"

                                I guess I was just raised by parents with antiquated values, but I was raised to value conscious decision making through responsible drinking, and respecting your body. Also the social media obsession is a bit much these days. It has just consumed so many people's lives to the point where they need to make sure they capture every big moment and upload it to Instagram, or Facebook it. It's just a new way of trying to brag, or show off. Especially the ones who are constantly posing in gym clothes, or no shirt after workouts; and claiming they are doing it for "motivation".

                                I rarely even use Social media these days because of this.
