You know what really grinds my gears?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

Ok, Kehlis, I'll bite. You seem to like confrontation around here. I respect that, as you seem like a reasonable guy. This thread is full of irrational things that grind people's gears, mine for today happens to be that everyone has a mostly uneducated opinion about draft picks. I'm not saying every scout is 100% correct, or that every casual fan is 100% wrong. It's certainly ok to have an opinion, but to claim "bad pick" with next to zero knowledge happens to grind my gears. Is that ok?

Kinda like how I'm a police officer and been doing it for over 8 years...and some person who watches an episode of Law & Order think they know more than me.

I just don't like when people pass their "opinion" off as original when they directly quote whatever they heard from an insider on TV or radio. Kind of like that Good Will Hunting scene.

As a computer systems analyst when someone comes to me asking for help while telling me what they think is the solution is in a condescending tone. If you were so deadset on the answer why are you asking me?

It's annoying when I'm in a local team thread and guys are saying a pick is bad because they had a player ranked lower by position in their personal mock.

Like a give a **** about the pro mocks let alone some rando pretending to be in the know

That's why I stopped reading mock drafts and draft grades.

You can't judge or grade these guys until you see them on the field in live action.

I find it far more annoying when they provide NO detail surrounding the problem and send me IMs, calls, etc. that I need to fix this ASAP. Then...when I ask a follow-up question, I don't get an answer until the next morning.

That truly grinds my gears.

Or there is a motorcycle parked in the spot and you can't see it.

I wish developers of open-world games stopped saying "A living breathing city/world" - if it's not true. You almost always hear it, but only a few open-world games actually have it.

I still remember when that forklifting game advertised that many years back.

What a crock that was...

People who fart in my office as they are walking out. Seriously, you can't wait two more steps to get into the hallway before cracking one off?

It's one thing if I fart in my office, but I don't want to smell your stinky butt.

Yeah, the NFCs (non-forkable characters) in the warehouse were so lifeless...but maybe that's what made it such a great sim.

Having a bag full of fancy schmancy hand soaps tucked away in the closet only for every ****ing bottle left of the stash to be some butt nasty scent like Coconut Snowball Something or Gingerbread Latte or Vanilla Cupcake which, somehow, is actually more like women's perfume.

Guys and girls in the gym who want to do supersets so they hog up multiple equipment while giving everyone the side eye who wants to get some work in.

This reminds me of the people in my building who can't wait til they get outside to light their smokes. I'm not even anti smoking, I have a few a night, but I don't go into the halls and do it so it infiltrates every apartment.

My building isn't even big, it's like 11 units, you guys really can't wait the 5 seconds it takes to walk outside before sparking?
