You know what really grinds my gears?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

When I'm exhausted and go to bed early, then wake up a couple hours later and can't go back to sleep.

Went to bed at 9 last night, woke up at 12 and couldn't get back to sleep till 3.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

- When I put something down for a second, with intentions of picking it back up but then I forget to pick it back up... then later on in the day I have no clue where I put that item when I actually need it.

- When I have too much on my mind, and I start to forget my train of thought as it relates to the moment because other things are constantly popping into my head.

- Couples where the Husband never comes with the Wife but wants her to get him stuff, and the Wife is walking around the store with her phone in hand yapping "Oh is this what you want? I thought you hated that" as she's trying to snapshot a picture of just about every item on the shelves to show her husband. Which probably wouldn't have to happen if he would get his butt off the couch and just go to the store with her!

Yes this annoys me very much as well. I've solved this though by not looking at anyone while I eat in public, I just focus on my food and drown everything else out.

Basically you can't be subconscious about it, if you look intimidated or feel awkward they will keep looking at you. However if you just ignore them, and pretend you don't notice them eventually they will look away or just move on with their conversation.

For me it's not an awkward or intimidating feeling, it's just a Why the F*** are you watching me eat? I find nothing fascinating by watching someone chew their food, my mom does this too I noticed. Maybe it's just seeing my approval of her cooking or something, but it actually makes me angry, it just triggers a response of wtf are you looking at. Sounds harsh, it's just how I tick I guess.

1) When your watching a TV series on DVD and they play little segments in the menu that contain spoilers. I'm currently watching a series and as a cliffhanger for one of the episodes one they lead you to believe that one of the secondary characters commits suicide. Then I pop in the next DVD there's a scene of him clearly doing something that he hasn't done yet. FAIL.

2) When you watching TV and the guide doesn't match up with what is actually on. This also pertains to Tune In radio. Get you **** together people.

3) When my girlfriend goes on and on about a particular subject and keeps saying the same thing, but in different ways. So annoying.
