You know what really grinds my gears?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

Getting a 12-pk nugget with only 1 BBQ sauce.

Ima need more than that.

If this is Mickey D's, I use the self-order kiosk and it asks how many bbq sauces, I always max it out at 3.

A buddy of mine who owned a fast food place told me there’s no profit margins on sauces which is why their so sting with it.

I can’t stand seeing “fitness” influencers who have “athlete” in their bio.

Ummmm, lifting weights doesn’t make you an athlete.

I mean... yes, it does. In context.

A powerlifter is most definitely an athlete.

Joe from South Philly, who works out 4x a week for 32 minutes at a time, and 27 minutes of that is getting his tripod in the perfect spot for a quick video... yeah, probably not.

Speaking of 12, gas stations who don't show their beer prices so you go to get a 12-pack and it's something insane.

Double standards in society.



When I was in my early twenties, I went through a phase where I was getting to know women that were sometimes twice my age but I didn't realize it until the next day when we would be talking. This happened more times than I will indulge here. I played in several bands, for what it's worth. That was the attractant, I still believe.


Fast forward, I am now approaching the age those women were, or close to it, as I'm 38. I couldn't, for the life of me, go for someone that young, and most guys don't because it would be frowned upon by many. Yet when women do it, we almost applaud them and even coin them as cougars. Eh. That just sits wrong with me now and grinds several gears all at once.


That said, the younger version of myself had no complaints back then, although I don't allow myself to ever reminisce back to that era as it isn't healthy for relationship psych/chemistry.

Probably a stretch to say this grinds my gears since it isn't technically mandatory, but man is it funny or maybe just ironic.

I work in corporate finance for a large company. Our world has a very set crunch time that happens at the beginning of every month, and you can calculate what days those will be a year from now and 10 years from now. We have had a few different CFO's over the last several years, and every time they schedule these finance town hall meetings (months in advance) it is during these periods that are the busiest time for finance.

Yeah. That also gets into the whole mental gymnastics of saying that women are smarter and more emotionally mature at a younger age, while also saying they are easier to manipulate and more vulnerable at that same age. People just want that easy applause line, consistency be damned.

It doesn't surprise me. The last time I got pizza at Marco's they wanted like 75 cents a sauce or something like that. I know it makes me cheap but man I got ranch at home

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I loathe people that ride with their high beams on at night with traffic clearly approaching. They don't care to dim their lights to normal at all. This is their world and we're just NPCs along the way.


I suppose this gear-grinding has developed since my TBI, as bright lights have an effect on my eyes that they never did before due to my senses being exponentially increased more often than not. I'd compare it to the double-edged sword metaphor, but instead I'm gripping both sides of the blade with all my strength. Hard to explain. My thoughts are deeper and more intuitive than I have ever experienced in life thus far.

I live in the south as well. Folks sometimes need to consider the ramifications of the saying, "Fool Around, Find Out," edited for reasons of forum rules, of course.
