You know what really grinds my gears?

Parking your buggie in the middle of a small aisle while you talk to someone on the phone over misc BS.

Or when people ahead of you walk like they're stuck in quicksand.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

And don't get me started on how people walk. I was standing in one spot one time, close to the racks at a store, theres maybe a good 20 feet of empty space between my back and the wall behind me. Despite that, people walk literally an inch behind me, almost bumping into me, simply because they're too lazy or just too stupid to take a step sideways to avoid me. They literally had 20 feet of empty space, but they choose to brush up against me instead.

You could always start coughing, like you're the epicenter of the outbreak.

and then you go to pass them and they suddenly kick it into gear and walk at your speed and you're now the problem for blocking the other lane, and another person is now turning into the direction that you're walking and you're the biggest jerk ever, so you pull over behind the original person, who proceeds to stop again, and the cycle repeats, except now a person behind you is attempting to pass while you stopped...

it never ends

this is the best reason to be, or look like, the type person when other people cross the street when they see you coming. nothing warms the cockles of my heart like seeing someone start down my aisle then quickly back out because they realise these aren't the aisles they're looking for.

Ordering food, specifying a certain things you don't want in it, and instead of them leaving it out, they put MORE than the usual amount in the food.

Same happens with pizzas too. Sometimes I might get half and half toppings(ordering online) so 2 people can eat it. But of course the 1 topping that's different on one half is the one that bleeds over to the other half and ends up being buried in the cheese.

Another gear grinder. Lazy marketing.

Every broom/mop ever made is the greatest one ever made. Whatever the previous leading brand was apparently sucks and turns your dusty floor into a bigger mess than before, and their new mop or broom picks up 99.9% of everything.


Buying a razor? This new one provides best shave ever while being so comfortable too. The previous version completely sucked.

The new deodorant? Gives you longest lasting protection. Your old one sucks.


Doesn't matter if its 2019 or 1989, we probably have same types of ads. I'm sure mops and deodorants in the 80s were the greatest ones ever and could never be topped.

This is on you, not them.

Use what works for you.

not toilet paper.


you realise toilet paper has not changed in my lifetime? it's just paper on a cardboard roll, that's it. and in 10,000 years it will be exactly the same, because really, what else can they do?

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

When you spend all summer buying fall weather clothes because it's your favorite season, but the climate where you live decides to stay in the 80s-90s until late mid/late Nov and then go straight to 30s-40s. I'm exaggerating, but damn. I just want to wear a damn track jacket.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I need a sign to hang around my neck while sleeping: ‘‘who dares interrupt my nap time?‘‘ I hate being awakened before I'm done. What am I, four years old you may ask. Why yes, yes I am

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I had a full steak ready to go on the grill. Oil, salt and pepper.

Left the room for a second and my dog who already has an upset stomach had pulled it off the counter and swallowed it whole because when I saw what she had and started chasing her, she didn't want to lose her prize.


Far more worried about her doing that to herself than losing a steak though.
