Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

Do americans even speak English? I mean seriously, the amalgamation of dialects combining to form common speak is quite an abomination

That last sentence you wrote is most good. Most good, for definitely.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

Here's one for my fellow bandies.

People who can't stay in step.

People who don't cover down.

People who can't guide right.

Bad horn angles.

When you get eaten up by a flag.

When the drill puts the color guard too close to the trombones.

When you have to go 2 to 5 for 30 yards.

When it's always blistering hot during band camp.

When the director tells the trombones to stop overblowing.

When the music only gives you whole and half notes to play. BORING!

Colleges that stand and play; who have little to no drill. (I'm looking at you, Standing Mizzou.)

Bad fight songs.

When the football team is playing outside of its ability and it causes the band to play the fight song hundreds of times. (91 point games suck!)

Good lord. Seeing some of those terms gave me flashbacks to basic training.

Stupid fees.

Wells Fargo sold me on having 2 checking accounts, so I did just that.

Anyway, I really only use, the other is there and I transfer money to it for convenience items; however, starting next month they will charge $7 a month if you don't meet requirements.

I just closed the account.

In short, you offered me free checking a few months ago, and, now, its not free anymore.


-----------------------------------------

Along those same lines, I opened up a way to save savings account, which removes a dollar every time there is a transaction on my card.

This account is supposed to have a higher amount of interest. Well, once I transferred it to the proper checking account, I've had tons of money going in, and a penny of interest. When the balance was much lower, I was getting 20-30 cents. -_-

Makes no damn sense to have one, when I can just transfer to a regular savings account.

In short, **** banks.

I can't do leftovers, just can't. My wife will eat spaghetti the next day. You may as well eat rubber bands.

If someone at my house cooks, I usually take left overs for lunch, the next day. I save so much money + it's a home cooked meal that would otherwise go to waste.

Vegetable soup, Spaghetti, Lasagna, etc. are all good the next day. I had leftover home made Vegetable soup for lunch today

Spaghetti on day 2 > spaghetti freshly cooked.

You sir are correct.


On the same subject, do any of you guys have family that cans food ? My grandmother has so much canned vegetable soup, turnip greens, green beans, corn, etc.. pretty much anything that comes from her garden and she even makes her own home made jelly and cans that.... she has three closets full of stuff.

When a car runs over your toes

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

People who can't keep their toes out of the street/parking lot/driveway - people in general who just can't seem to notice there is a tire attached to a 2500 lbs. vehicle coming towards their feet.

Damn bitches. I would feel better about the world if more of them were actually honest, but I'm not playing these stupid little games.

Any time you get a drink from a drive through and its 50% ice and 50% drink. I want it to be like 90% drink, 10% ice.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I can't stand people who rehash sports games over and over. We lost a football game recently and all people talked about was "if this" and "if that".

We lost. Get over it. Let's enjoy the night of drinking and such.

We bank with Capital One. My wife and I have a joint checking (where our paychecks are deposited) and a separate checking that our allowance goes to. Well now they are going to start charging us $8/month for the regular checking accounts. Needless to say, we are closing our personal accounts. Whatever happened to free checking accounts?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I don't think there is such thing as free checking accounts anymore. Seems like every bank has some type of FEE for having one and a penalty for going under a certain amount in that account. Like the bank I have now, it is a $10 or $15 penalty for going under $100.
