Not all the routes on Madden can be made into a "smart route." 3rd and 8. Let's run a 5 yard in. The one that's rounded off a bit can't be made into a "smart route."

People who hold a Degree from the University of YouTube.

Yes, your watching of a 15 minute youtube film trumps my Bachelors of Science Degree from a top 50 institution.

Bought a 35 dollar shirt wash/wear it once and it already has bacon neck.

I'm sure this has probably been said already, but I feel after this morning's drive it warrants potential repeating.

People who use the center turning lane to merge into traffic. It's a lane to make left hand turns only. It even has a pair of left hand arrows painted in it. There aren't any right hand arrows painted. It doesn't have a big sign that says "use me to merge because you can't wait that extra 5 seconds." Just sit wherever it is you want to pull out of and wait until you can cross traffic and merge correctly. I'm tired of trying to make a left hand turn, only to find the lane clogged with idiots.

^ Yeah, that's a good one.

Another traffic one: When people use the far right lane that is used to enter another highway/exit as a far left lane to pass cars during the morning commute. Now I have to sit and wait to merge over into the lane to get on the highway I need to get on, because your lame *** is trying to be Vin Diesel and jump ahead of 5 cars and save you about 15 seconds on your morning commute.

Douche.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

Thankfully I have never encountered that.

Monday when I was coming home I come to the normal intersection I take a right at going about 20-25MPH. Typically when I approach a turning lane I tend to get into the lane as soon as possible. So, I'm already in the lane and advancing in lane when this doofus, who was previously stopped in the left/straight lane, throws on a right turn signal and moves over. Now, that behavior is expected from that intersection so I always watch the cars in front of me that have no clue WTF is going on. So Mr. Doofus moves over and when he notices me he brakes and stops in the middle of the lane. There's not enough room to go around him and when he looks back at me (for God only knows) I just throw my hands up.

I honestly don't know what goes through people's minds when they drive. Is it that hard to be courteous to other people? I would hate to hang around some of these drivers I encounter.

While we're on the topic of driving, When you're on the freeway and your exit is coming up. You throw on your turn signal and start heading over when some douche tries to speed around you, then goes crazy behind you. Honking the horn and flipping you off and such.

Don't forget people who fail to realize how a yield works. I'm amazed at how many people come flying up an on-ramp and think that everyone in traffic already should slow down to let them in.

On the flip side its not a stop sign either. I hate when people stop for no reason.

Sitting at work, trying to get stuff done. Start to get that odd feeling and BAM migraine aura. Looks like I'm going to be worthless for the next hour and a half.

The fact that classes and work don't allow me to have two or three days off when a new video game I like comes out.

I mean, come on. It's NHL 13!

I had one of those guys a few weeks back. Stops at the end of the interstate on-ramp with half a dozen cars already going 65 behind him ready to merge. ****ing jackass damn near caused a huge pileup.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

When cute girls are around their mothers (or fathers). And on the flip when I see one but my mom is around. Can't do nothing with those circumstances.

For example, Im trying to mooch off my mom to get a peacoat from macy's (dont judge me bro). And we're in line and I overhear "yeah but all the good guys are taken!" to which a recognizable voice goes "we'll my son isnt *insert mom trollface here*".

At least I got a peacoat for this winter.

The writer's strike abruptly ending Season 2 of Friday Night Lights and in turn messing with Season 3, at least from what I've seen after watching the first episode.

Also, how god awful the XMB/menus are with PS3's online compared to the 360. The good thing is I'm not a huge online gamer but it's ridiculous how slow and time-consuming it is just to do something simple like send and receive messages.

It did that with most shows. Heroes is what I think took the worst of it. At least FNL was able to recover.
