You know what really grinds my gears?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

You guys would hate my co-worker that I have to drive hours with every couple weeks to pick up our cars.

No turn signals, does 50 in a 65, 65 in a 40 (****ING WORK ZONE YOU *** HOLE), pulls and stops in the "Do Not Cross" area where the highway and the exits meet.. the list goes on. He almost got me killed Wednesday by pulling out of our parking lot without looking. Thank God the 90-year old woman still had cat like reflexes or else I probably wouldn't be typing this right now. I turned to him and I'm like "Do you want me to drive?". He's like "..uh.. yeah.. this car man.. it has so many blind spots.."

On top of all of that..

He drove through an EZ Pass on the turnpike because he "was distracted because his mom was calling him".. so he had to pay the full price at the end of the pike, as well as wait for a ticket in the mail

**** YOU, BUDDY. **** YOU.

Malls without arcades.

Good one. Man, back in the day they ALL had an arcade in them.

I pumped so many ******* quarters into those machines growing up. I played all the early 90s classics when they were new. Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter 2, TMNT II, The Simpsons arcade game (criminally underrated) and WWF Wrestlefest. I lived a five minute bike ride away from the closest mall and would pedal my *** up there every day after school to waste time and play games.

For a while, I had the hook up. When I was 13 or so, my best friend's mom started working at the arcade part time and she would always hook us up with free games almost every day. 99 credits on Wrestlefest? Sure, no problem! Also, there was a hot pretzel stand right across the corridor and another buddy of mine's sister worked there and would give us free food all time time. It was seriously some of the most fun I ever had and that summer was the last time in my life where I had no responsibility.

Man, I am really starting to reminisce now...

The day I got my Playstation 1 was the day I stopped caring about arcades.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I hit up the arcade at the Bowling Alley when I was there a few weeks ago. There's something different about the arcade games that make them fun.

I wish we had a Dave and Busters close by.

Pretty much a dream summer for lots of 13 year olds.

People that don't use periods, period. I don't understand it. How do you manage to form 4 or 5 grammatically correct sentences but can't figure out how to use the period key to separate them?

If you want help then make it as easy as possible for us to read your post. By not using the period key, now I've labeled you an idiot and are on my block list.

I'm glad some people are bigger then me though and take pity on these people and answers their questions.

My mall always had an arcade until it became the drug dealing paradise for kids. So dimly lit and hectic in there, so they removed it.

One of the malls near me still has an arcade in it, but it's pretty much just a haven for Dance Dance Revolution folk.

Scrolling on Facebook and having it jump around as new **** loads.

Facebook lol
Don't see how such a big company can have such a bad site these days. My feed now features every post from every group that I am. I've gone to every setting to turn off the updates with no luck. If Facebook wasn't an income generator for me I'd finally say **** you.

Getting my butt kicked by a 9-year-old in my bracket. He's currently in the top 16K on ESPN, I'm currently in the top 6,300,000 on ESPN.

Semi-random guessing along with him picking WSU to the final four because his sister goes to school in Kansas. But he's got no points left, as he's got CSU/KU in the championship game. Still gonna kick my butt, as I've got no points left either.

CSU, as in Colorado State? Ok, so maybe he isn't a savant.

Yeah.

That's the team favoritism coming through as that's where his mom went.
