    What Really Grinds My Gears

     Constantly, everyday, there are things that come up that really grind my gears. Unlike Peter Griffin, Lindsay Lohan's boobs don't grind my gears, but the lack of a turning signal while driving grinds my gears. Or when you go out of your way to get a Green Tea Frap but the ice machine is broken therefore no Frappucino's for the day.

     

    So, what really grinds everyone elses gears?

    3/4 lobes.
    10g second holes.
    16g medusa.
    4 tattoos.

    Re: What Really Grinds My Gears

    Yesterday I was driving past the entrance to the mall by my house, and i was passing a woman in a mini van who was pulled over with her hazards on. Right as im about to pass her she throws her blinker on and pulls right out in front of me. I lay on the horn, slam on the breaks, and she swerves back onto the curb and comes to a halt with her front tire fully on the mall sidewalk after she managed to jump the curb. bad enough, but then she leans out her window and screams "I had my blinker on bitch!!" LOL just because you had you blinker on doesnt mean you can just GO, you still have to look to make sure your not going to CRASH INTO SOMEONE. AND just because you put your blinker on doesnt mean im going to stop to let you go (and i couldnt have at that point, i was going to fast and she gave me way to little warning).

    shit like that happens to me almost daily, in Jersey you really have to watch you ass when you drive because people drive like fucking morons here.. I could deal with someone who forgets there blinker now and then, or ever the fuckin' PA mfs who INSIST on doing the speed limit in the right lane (another way to get into an accident/get honked at/get flipped off in jersey) but when people just arent paying attention, gah. drives me nuts. And its not even that. People are paying full attention most of the time, but still think they own the road and can do whatever they please, and expect everyone else to gtfo of their way.

    /rant

    To sum it up: Jersey drivers, in case you didnt feel like reading that whole thing. lol

    14g tongue, 14g septum, 7/16 lobes, 12g lobes, 16g conch, tattoos x3

     Smoking, especially near me since I have a horrible smoke allergy. Man perfume, aka shitty cologne and manly scents in general (Axe = the stench of jocks and ass). People that use body spray or perfume in public, again I have allergies. The lack of the ability to speak proper English in my area. People who come up to me asking if I will knit/crochet them something for free when I'm doing it in public, then look at me as if I have three heads when I suggest they learn how to themselves. Rude comments on my attire, especially after they notice my piercings and realize it is not for religious reasons. 

    The phrase "Grinds my gears" >.>

     

    Will knit/crochet for pretties. Seriously, try me. I like shiny ^.^

     Slow drivers who fuck up merges and parking lots because they hesitate so much & spend way too much time considering every move.

    People who speed and people who tailgate. I drive safely and legally and I shouldn't have to be on the road with folks who feel entitled to do such stupid shit. If you wanna risk your own life fine, but please don't do it when there are other people sharing the road with you.

    Children who can't look where the hell they're walking. I shouldn't have to practically get knocked down by them, and then also get dirty looks from their parents because they didn't teach them to watch were they're going.

     Mostly long skirts or sleeved dresses and modest clothes, I usually get confused for being Apostolic or Pentecostal. No particular reason other than I'm more comfortable in them and it reflects my morals better than modern wear.

    OH MAN! Somewhere to complain about stupid things besides at work/ to my wife.

    "Grinds my gears." Definitely bugs me, but besides that... asshole drivers who forget their turn signals last minute, are all over the road and then decide to go slow in the fast lane.

    Smoking AND Smokers... it's gross, so why the f**k must you do it so that the shit wafts into my house/room/general vicinity? It gives my wife a headache, and myself to some effect. It makes me want to PUKE when I go into a house where people smoke inside.

    Our neighbors. The guy's 27, has a kid with one girl and lives with the 17 year old girl he knocked up and just had their baby. He's constantly stoned or drunk and ALWAYS an asshole. He starts freaking out everytime their baby cries. There is just too much to go into, but he's a complete douche to this girl, treats her like complete crap. They're always fighting.

    Religion. Go to church, love your gods, do your little rituals, whatever, but DO NOT PREACH TO ME!!! This crazy lady at the store came up to my wife and I and just started babbling away, "Your marriage is like passover, yadayada, I know you LOVE and WORK with small children (can't really stand most of them) blahblah, jesus has told me this." I stood there with my wife for a good 5 minutes while my f**king BURRITO GOT COLD! So you could blow some christ-almighty crap out of your ass.

    People who swear but don't let their kids do it. Come on, WTF?! It's like people who do drugs at home, where their kids can see it, but tell them not to.

    Nickelback and most modern music.

    People who don't know what a f**king BASS guitar is besides "The big guitar with 4 strings."

    People who are abusive towards animals (including humans). If I ever saw someone hurt an animal, I might hulk-out and break something. Animal testing is included in this.

    Finally, the people who "eat healthy" by buying foods with all kinds of crap in it because the box says "Fat/sodium/whatever FREE." This includes my mom, who has high blood pressure, so she still buys this stuff but it has MSG and about 100000 preservatives. I also greatly dislike so-called "vegetarians" that eat fish. You are a "Pescatarian."

    HALLWAYS AT SCHOOL.

    its like  0289734902349843 people in one tiny little hallway and they walk slow as shit and stop in the middle of the hallway and do stupid things. (run on, i know)

    kids who think they are cool because they smoke pot. kids who are wanna be scene and wear tapers as jewelry. rave kids. like seriously?!?! your fifteen and you go to raves?! (sex, exstacy, STDS) psycho teachers that say that "Im glad my body deals with anger this way (crying) other wise im one step away from doing something that would get me incarcerated(sp?)"

     

    sheesh. i wanna be done with high school.

    I'm a slight perfectionist, though I understand the balance of both perfection and imperfection; for what we are not makes us what we are, and vice versa.

    Re: What Really Grinds My Gears

    People who drive like assholes, and pedestrians who think they have the right of way no matter where they are. If there's not a crosswalk, it's my turn, bitch! People who don't tip. People who still think 10% is a good tip. People at work who don't do their jobs, which makes me have to. People who think it's okay so smoke around me. I have severe allergies, and it's disgusting. People who cheat. My asshole manager. Getting COLD fries at McDonalds. When I make a huge grocery shopping trip and get home to realize that I forgot something fundamental, like milk or bread. When people ask me for shit at work and don't use it. Seriously, if you aren't going to drink the refill or use the extra ketchup, don't ask for it. When people whistle at me. It's rude, uncouth, and not attractive. People who can't keep their politics to themselves. There's a reason that my "political views" on facebook says: apathetic. It's because I don't care. I think the whole system is too fucked up for any one person in office to be able to do anything about it. I didn't like McCain OR Obama. And I still don't. Religious fanatics who make all christians look like fuckjobs. I'm a christian, and it's important to me. But I also understand that you may be buddhist/taoist/scientologist/jewish/muslim/atheist/agnostic/whatevertheheckyoubelieve, and that it's important to you. Be happy. Feminists bug me. Bitching doesn't make you equal. It makes you a bitch. Onions. Onions really grind my gears.

    Re: What Really Grinds My Gears

     Today, it's a continuation on the bad drivers thing.

    People who come blazing out of a parking lot into the road (in this case, going across 2 lanes of traffic and a turn lane so they can turn left) without paying attention to oncoming traffic and end up crashing into another car. So the people having a fabulous day up until that point now have an almost totaled truck and a severely messed up back/spine.

    Sorry, I got yet ANOTHER packet from the insurance company with all the settlement paperwork in it. I'm so not ready to settle yet, quit sending me the stuff. (I'm the one with the f***ed up back) Grrumph...

    current: 6g lobes, 16g 2nd lobes, 18g helix x2 (l), 16g rook to daith "industrial" (l), 18g tragus (r), 12g industrial (r), 20g nostril (r), 16g navel

    Re: What Really Grinds My Gears

     haha my boyfriend loves you for starting this, ive been complaining to him all day!

    well first off i cant stand people who are against gay marriage and for some ridiculous reason believe that 2 people getting married, that they dont even fucking know, is gonna effect their life (like this for example).  and no i am not gay so this does not even effect me directly, i just happen to believe that EVERYBODY deserves the same rights, you know like it says in the fucking CONSTITUTION. you think 2 people of the same sex getting married is ruining the institution of marriage but 24 hour drive through chapels arent?!

    i also cant stand people who dont believe in evolution. its not even considered a theory anymore! there is ridiculous amounts of physical proof!! educate yourself people

    and i work in a restaurant so i could go on and on about that all day but here is just a few examples of stuff that happend today: 

    it drives me insane when people walk in the door, look at me standing right at the host desk smiling, and when im in the middle of saying "hi how can i help you folks" they walk RIGHT PAST ME and seat themselves. i dont get paid just to stand there and smile at you! and i hate parents who let their kids run around and roll on the floor. its a restaurant, there are servers with plates of hot food and trays full of drinks everywhere! its dangerous for your kid and for us! but the worst is the people who treat us all like dirt and act like they are better than us because we are serving them. i was walking by a table today on the way to seat 2 people and the guy at the table actually stoped me in my path, shoved his empty bread basket at me and said "you know what to do with this, fill it" um how about may i please have some more bread?!  for everyone who is reading this please be nice to your servers and hosts we deal with a lot of shitty people on a daily basis =)

    ok im done for now i promise, that felt good! heh

    And we are vagabonds
    We travel without seat belts on
    We live this close to death

    These. 

    People who are also convinced the world has only existed for the past 6,000 years or so make me go wtf O.o

    Also, people who are so against modern medicine, yet use other modern conveniences on a daily fucking basis. They bitch about how evil scientists and doctors are, yet take advantage of many things that would certainly not exist, like computers, electricity, etc. without scientists in the first place. Get over yourselves, I wouldn't be here and functioning if it weren't for modern medicine. Chances are, someone you know and love wouldn't either.
