People on motorcycles who ride between the lanes when traffic is slow. These people must have a death wish.

People who say "axe" instead of "ask".

Every time I hear that, a little bit of me dies.

Not knowing what *'s are replacing.

It grinds my gears when people (not here, because that's a warning lol) use an asterisk or an exclamation point to change one letter of a curse word.

Like "gee, now I have no idea what word you're trying to say!"

When people order something and say, "let me get a footlong." Try some form of manners d bag.

When certain words get popular & everyone regurgitates them. I can't count the number of times I've heard the word "narrative" the past month.

I'm guessing the issue here is you want people to say "can I please get a footling?"

I get it. I don't see the issue with "let me get a footlong" so long as the way it's said is politely. I think I definitely say the latter but I always say thank you. I say thank you an annoying number of times when I'm being served.

That reminds me of this one time this older lady just had the most stank attitude when ordering food at this deli. I can't even recall how horrible it was.

Afterwards I said to the clerk, "the heck is wrong with her?"

He told me she's always like that. Just always mad.

Pretty sad life to always be that miserable.

One of my gear grinders is people who treat people who are working some minimum wage job, like ****. Or, people who lose their cool on someone who is obviously struggling with something because they are new.

Those first few years in the workforce are pretty rough for anyone, you aren't making jack for money, and usually are doing some job that completely sucks. The last thing you need is some jackass demanding to speak with the manager, or flipping out because you are taking too long to assist them.

Even if I am in a desperate hurry to get somewhere, I don't take out my lack of planning on some 16 year old girl who is taking too long to ring up my groceries, or whatever it may be.

Sometimes you wish those people who are rude to cashiers should be forced to work retail for a couple years of their life, haha.

After working in a grocery store for 5 years in high school and college, I will never be rude to a cashier, that's for sure.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

When you're feeling good about stuff(like sports game/team,tv show,basically anything that doesn't directly impact you) and then reality sets in and you start realizing that regardless of what happened to make you feel good, you have to "snap out of it" and go back to regular life.

Not saying regular life sucks, just sucks when you go from a real happy feeling about something like sports, to then having to deal with real life stuff not too long afterwards.

Finding a spider in my room right before I'm going to bed.

It's not even the spider that I don't like, it's just the paranoia of feeling like there's a bunch of other spiders who didn't jump the gun like the one I just killed, and are waiting for me to fall asleep with my mouth open so they can lay a colony of spider eggs inside me.

What's up with Wendy's? Every time I order the BaconHater
they invariably put bacon on it. ARGHH!

The sudden over-saturation of the word "Narrative" on the internet and media.
