Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

When a sport chooses 1 song to represent an entire postseason. Like baseball or college football bowl season. That song gets so annoying after the first day or two. I remember last year it was "play like a champion", and now this year it's the Nelly song.

To piggy back off of this ...

When you're at the Self Checkout at the Grocery store, and the Machine stops and pops up the screen that says "Please place item in Bagging Area", if you don't place the Item down in the bagging area within 2 seconds of scanning it.....

What really GMG is when I want to check out something glorious on the DL and the machine yells what you just purchased.

For example:
Walk in store
Scoop up some delicious Bloom chocolate chip sandwich cookies

Spoiler

Go to self checkout
Punch in the bakery code for the cookies.
Machine yells "How many...COOKIES...do you have?"
I was so fast I got the number of cookies purchased before it said "COOKIES!!!!"
Then after you do that it yells "Place you...COOKIES...in the bag"

It is really loud and blew up my spot every damn time

Thankfully none of the Grocery stores by me do that. I can however picture this scenario.

You're picking up condoms one night, and the regular check out lanes are all occupied, so you go to Self-Checkout and just as you start scanning them...

A really, super hot chick comes up and starts unloading her basket of groceries at the the Self checkout lane next to yours.

Then your machine blurts out "Place your CONDOMS in the bagging area!"

Oh the embarrassment that would ensue lol.

I didn't even watch that much postseason baseball, and my god do I hate that stupid *** song. If I never hear it again, It'll be too soon.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

When people just say "stop it" as a means to end a debate or discussion about something.

Example(stupid example)

A- I love ham sandwitches

B- What!? Turkey all the way man just stop it.


Stop what? Having an opinion? Give me a break.

The mother****ing Pirates sucking more than my ex girlfriend over the past 19 years and their only glimmer of hope was ruined by an incompetent manager who has no clue how to manage his ******* bullpen, not to mention a general manager/ownership group who will spend $4.5 million dollars on CLINT ****ING BARMES but not spend any money on their current players like Andrew McCutchen or Neil Walker. Hell, I'd be glad if we would have any guarantee that one of them won't get out of Pittsburgh as soon as their arbitration years are over.

Sort of related, but the new MLB CBA. Only in the MLB would you be punishing small market teams by having them be forced to spend less on their draft picks and have no salary cap/floor so the Yankees can spend $200MM each year and the Pirates spend $35MM each year.

People who spell "McCutchen" as "McCutcheon"

People who don't take their stickers off of their hats
