What really Grinds my gears are nosy neighbors who think they have the authority to get into your own personal business.

Right now my biggest complaint is people who don't know how to drive in snow... especially those who drive to fast for the conditions.
I hate these people who think just because they have an SUV that they are invulnerable! Four Wheel Drive doesn't help much on ice and there is ice out there in spots under this snow and sometimes on top of the snow from salt and that other stuff they lay on the roads. Plus all the snow blowing off the vehicles passing by leaves the other driver blinded. Don't people THINK or care about anyone else on the roads?
I drive ta a speed at which I feel safe. I don't care if its 20 or 60 in this stuff. Yesterday I drove 45 cause there was only one halfway decent lane and it wasn't the best, but I felt safe at 45

Yeah, I can't stand it when people don't bother to clean the snow off the top of their cars. I have a jeep and I climb just to get all the snow off so it doesn't blow on other drivers.

The guy that works in the cubicle next to mine always eats his lunch at his desk. The gear-grinder here is that he hardly ever says a word all day.... ... until his mouth is full of turkey sammitch...  ...then he won't shut up.  |

I gotta admit I am guilty of that  My sister however can not be distracted by anything while driving! I've known that for a while, but again she proved it to me. Last week she, my dad and I went out to eat and she drove.. well she ended up going the wrong way down a split highway and almost killed us! |

I'm one of those people who can't talk and drive at the same time... so I try to avoid it. My sister is an expert at it though.

I can talk and drive myself.. but that's onyl if the weather is good out.. rain or any other bad type of weather and forget it... Im all concentrating on watching myself and the other idiots who are out there.
What also grinds my gears is getting those phone calls around 2 am and noone on the other line. We use to get some number from washington call us and noone would answer. They woudl do it at least 3 times daily...

I get that all the time. Its usually bill collectors or telemarketers using a pre-recorded system.. or sometimes they dial several phones at once and whoever answers first is the call they take

What grinds MY gears (gets my goat, fries my bacon, etc.) is LOOOOOONG lines. At the college, amusement park, restaurants...you name it. A lot of thing gridn my gears, but I don't want to complain too much.  The thing that irritates me more than anything else, though, is those people on the bus who have their volume up all the way on thier cell/walkie-talkies so everyone can hear every word they're saying; and most of the time, it isn't nice. If it were bleeped out, you could send Morse code with it! |

Yikes.. that would make me mad too....
How about this one guys....
When your driving on the road or freeway and already going the speedlimit or just a few over. You get that jerk right up behind you riding your tail and he could pass y ou but dosent'. Then when he does get in front of you he/she slows back down forceing you to go slower.. oh that so makes me angry. I don't get why people do that.
WHen I have someone ride me now I don't even move over for them anymore. I make them pass me and if they slow down Ill just go around them again at the speed I was already going.

"you know what really grinds my gears...you america....**** you" -peter griffon
(sorry, had to get the obvious family guy quote in)
but in all seriousness, what really bothers me is society pushing their views on you. I hate it that I am trying to change my life for the better of me, and society turns around and tells me im wrong, because its not normal behavior for a guy/girl, or because it impunes on their sense of morals, or because its not christian, or because its somehow their buisness, even though it is never brought into their personal space.
I wish society would understand that
1) i am not your normal guy
2) i dont care about society's morals
3) i am most deffinatly not christian (nothing against the religeon, it makes people happy and that is a wonderfull thing, im just not it)
4) its not their buisness
5) i dont bring any of it into their personal space
and lastly 6) i couldnt care less if they like me or not, i just want to be happy, and maybe make someone laugh and maybe make their day better as opposed to being like all the other pieces of poo that treat others terribly and vent their frustrations and unhappiness on the happy people, because it somehow offends them.
sorry about the run on scentences and the like, that subject there just bothers me.
