You know what really grinds my gears?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

If I don't watch a TV show on air-date then its fair game to me with spoilers. Movie spoilers are a little different, but I think those are pretty well 'guarded' by most people.

I shouldn't be listening to discussion about A Rod and Braun and then a random Sopranos spoiler get worked in.

I didn't put myself in the position for it to be spoiled. A spoiler is a spoiler.

Its just a gear grinder, no more and no less.

Yeah this is tough but I get you.

It's just that the Sopranos finale has worked its way into public domain as a go to mention whenever something resembles it. Kind of like a show being about a dream and mentioning Newhart.

Trying to fold a fitted sheet.

I just roll it up as small as possible and chuck it in the linen closet.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

Yea Chase, you are stretching the definition of spoiler a lot here. A show that first aired 14 years ago and has been over for nearly half as long, just no. Otherwise, we could then reason that no one should talk about any TV show ever because there might be someone who didn't see it 30 years ago.

It's actually pretty easy. Fold it in half and put the fitted corners into eachother. Fold in half again, do the same. By that point you usually fold it in half twice more and then the top sheet and pillow cases fit in the middle. Done.

Running backs by committee. Don't NFL head coaches understand that the fantasy value of Julius Jones and Marion Barber III take a huge hit. I mean what's more important, winning NFL games or my fantasy league games. C'mon Wade Phillips!

Boy things have and haven't changed in near 6 years

Same for me, ESPECIALLY when you post the "spoiler" in the thread of that tv show. On another site I was on,people got mad that I was posting "spoilers" for a show that aired 1-2 nights ago(in the thread of that show). I don't get why people get mad at that...if you didn't see the show on the day the new episode aired, don't read the thread for it. Just like if you didn't see a sports game but are planning on doing so, don't go to the teams website.




To add to this overall thread(I seem to come here too often as of late lol)...A telemarketer called my house and starts acting like the answering machine was a person(it's not a real recording,it's the default answering machine message that I left on) and they just start talking and waiting for someone to talk back.....Did they not even listen to the answering machine message and the beep noise that means LEAVE A MESSAGE. This happens at least once a week with diff telemarketing people. I know you don't need much qualifications to even be telemarketer, but is common sense one of the qualifications?

You would probably be given a pretty hard time here if you did that too. I seem to recall a few disturbances over that.

I think that's pretty harsh considering the DVR times we live in.

I rarely if ever watch a show the night it is on anymore just because I tend to get too busy at different times during the week and get backed up on shows and watch them when I get to them.

Plus I hate commercials.

All that being said, I don't go into the threads until I've watched the show just to avoid the possibility all together WHICH ties us all back to Chase's point here.

I don't think his gears were grinded because they spoiled the Soprano's. If they had been having a discussion that remotely had anything to do with the Sopranos he would have understood, but it was the fact that it came out of nowhere and he had no chance to get away from it.

Yeah especially if Breaking Bad was spoiled like that.

"This whole A-Rod thing remind me of when Anthony got killed by David on Breaking Bad, that was crazy!"

Sopranos doesn't bother me as much because it's been off the air for so long, like others have said, but if a show is still airing, a warning is just common courtesy.

Frozen food waxed paper dividers. If I have two burger patties frozen together I can just jam a butter knife between them and separate. But these damn paper things get stuck to the food like glue and break apart into tiny little paper fragments. Takes like 5 minutes to pick away all the little particles.

Glad to know I'm not alone on this.
