What really grinds your gears? - Page 5

When folks blow things WAY out of proportion.

People who do not discipline or correct their children. Then by the time they become teenagers, they are running the household. They tell their parents to "F-off" and get away with it (amongst many other things) only for the parent to say, "He's just so out of control. I don't know what to do with him."

You took my main gear grinder too Ted,- spoiled a$s kids and the parents who won't listen to anyone who tells them they need to discipline them. They get their karma later though when the little monsters they created can't function in the world and have to move back in with their parents in their thirties. A certain relative of mine is having to take care of her daughter, her daughter's husband and their four young children for that reason.


Another gear grinder - women who have so much plastic surgery that they no longer even look like themselves but look like something that came out of the Mattel toy factory. I would rather see someone's honest wrinkles that have them look like something that belongs on Star Trek.

people that do this really grind my gears:

Well maybe after I get that ultrasound and biopsy that I've put off for over a year and a half for lack of money and maybe after I go to the dentist for the first time in I'd rather not say how many years, I'll put that couple bucks a month away.

It really grinds my gears I didn't think Of this post first

It really grinds my gears when a company's R2 certification makes it so difficult for them to resell good equipment, that it just ends up being scrapped out... creating more waste and effectively defeating the entire purpose of having such strict certification standards.

This really, really, grinds my gears.

It will grind my gears when the gears in my grinder grind.

It grinds my gears when there is a puddle of dried, sticky pee on the ground all around the urinal. It seems that some people have terrible aim.

getting to the yard 1 minute after they close and having to drive my load 15 mins back home for another day

When the admin puts the kibosh on political discussion. Just when I was about to make a really good point and PROVE YOU WERE WRONG!!! :-)
