    Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

    How for "Throwback Thursday", stuff that happened literally a few years ago is now considered a "throwback". There needs to be guidelines under what counts as a throwback and stuff. I'd say nothing in the past 10 years?

      I think all of the day **** is stupid to begin with, but it is annoying whenever someone throws up a #TBT and it's from the same year.

        Same with stuff that's considered "old school" but happened in 2007 or songs that debuted only 6 months ago being referred to as "classic."

          That new Cialis/Viagra commercial with the British(?) woman talking through the whole thing. It comes off as creepy.

                  Not really related, but made me think of this. People who are all over a "new" song and are the biggest fan of a band/artist. Well congrats person you could have heard that song 12 months ago on their album if you were actually a fan.

                    This is why fans of music drive me nuts. Just because you didn't hear a certain band the minute they released their album, you're not allowed to be a fan?

                      People that sit on and don't ever reply to a simple digital correspondence and it's follow up. Whether it's an email, a question to somebody in a thread, friend request (that you asked for!) , etc.

                      I know you saw it bro. It's been days or weeks. If it's an answer you don't think I want to hear, just say it. That's why I asked. Sitting on it isn't going to help the answer or make the question/request go away.

                          Main reason I don't care about facebook anymore. You could be in the middle of a conversation with someone, and out of nowhere,they just stop replying even though you just answered a question they were asking you and followed up that answer with a question of your own.

                          I could understand not replying at the start cause maybe they just don't want to talk at all,but to not respond in the middle of a conversation and just leave it at that...just annoying.

                            Why don't people use horns any more? Sure let's waste another 10 minutes by sitting behind the jackass at the light who is texting.

                              I use my horn as much as I can.

                                I give people some time but I'm not afraid to get on the horn.

                                I dislike the person who doesn't go promptly, but I also dislike the guy who lays on the horn if someone is just a nanosecond late.

                                Usually if they're late on the go, I'm already screwed on making the light so I just take the loss. I probably use my horn most to let people know they cut me off/pulled out late. I don't mind if they get on the gas immediately but don't pull out in front of me and take your time getting up to speed... you wanna be all daring but then drive like a bitch, that doesn't add up to me.

                                My horn is pretty manly too so I try to use it only when necessary. Maybe if I had a little baby horn I'd use it more. I often make fun of my brother's Kia Rio for it's very lady-like beep.
