Springing Forward.... my gears have been grinded.

Same here. Instead of waking up at 430 to go to work it felt like 330

The fact that the controls in Madden and NCAA are so different from each other REALLY REALLY grinds my gears. Especially the fact that R1 is pump fake in Madden and throw ball away in NCAA. After playing Madden for a while, I'm playing NCAA and I kieep hitting R1 trying to pump fake instead of the right stick. I just hit R1 instead of right stick on 4th & long around midfield and down 24-21 with 10 seconds left so I threw it away instead of pump faking.

Allowed being confused with aloud.

People who ring doorbells and/or knock on the door like they're about to die, when really it's nothing important.

People who call your phone after dialing a wrong number but then calling you straight back again. Idiots!

Here here! It's worse with channels like PBS who think that there is no reason to EVER go by their schedule and ALWAYS, and I mean ALWAYS, ignore the guide. I like watching shows like the cooking shows they have, or the home improvement shows they have. But they are NEVER on when they are supposed to be and are typically being pre-empted by some random p.o.s. show that only psychotic ninnies watch!

In addition, it grinds my gears when they put these stupid marathons on there to raise funds during the weekend when instead they should be showing the shows I want to watch. Hey guess what dip****s, if you want me to give you money, you need to give me something I want to watch. Why don't you do all your marathon BS during the middle of the week when the dying old people are around to watch it because they retired 20 years ago? On the weekend, put on the shows that people who will in the future be your target audience want to watch? Wow! That's be smart! Hence why they never do it.

That reminds me that I should watch more Bob Ross. Thanks Jdurg.

Make sure you paint that happy little tree. You know, the happy little tree in the corner that's happy because he slept with my wife while I was out of town? The no-good wife who is as faithful as a dysenteric elephant? The dirty whore of a wife who slept with the g*% da*#ed mail-man every time he delivered a package? Yeah, paint that happy little tree. Then don't forget to paint that happy little sniper in the happy little bush who will take out that happy little whore. Yeah.

Now don't forget the burnt sienna, and not burnt umber. Just make sure it's burnt. Like that dirty ex-wife of mine.


Hehe. Always thought he was just slightly beneath psychotic when I'd watch his shows.

I don't care about him being psychotic. He's ****ing magical with those brushes.

If Bob Ross were here he'd say that the guide error that caused me to miss the last 30 minutes of Breaking Bad was not a mistake it was a happy accident.

When people don't use the quote functionality on these boards.

The comment thread has probably moved past your conversation. Quote, just in case.

Speaking of quotes, it grinds my gears when people quote a giant wall of text to only respond with a couple words of their own. IDK why but that's always bothered me, especially if the post is right above you.

Yahoo News. Their definition of what constitutes news is a real head scratcher.

I hate it when news channels in general have random celebrity crap as part of their news bulletins. I mean there is real serious things happening in the world that they don't cover but i have to hear about Paris Hilton's birthday party or Justin Bieber's new haircut or some crap.

I realize people are interested in that stuff but that's why they have things like E news and TMZ etc...
