You Know What Grinds My Gears? - Things that personally piss you off

I'M GOING TO COME DOWN FROM THE RAFTERS WITH A ROPE AROUND MY NECK IF I SEE THIS AGAIN

 

[Rick Nekieta]

The fact that "defund the police" is effectively a wealth flex to show that you are disconnected from the problems that defunding the police actually entails. "Defund the police" people are the scum of the earth.

Phone call going from normal to "robot voice" for no apparent reason

 

[Captain Syrup]

Hoping people will forget he tried to torch his Verizon job just so he could grab T-Mobile's bag.

 

[Day of the Cope]

So often, I'll start up something that requires more than, oh, five minutes without interruption and suddenly every single fucking person needs my undivided attention.

You do realize that happens every day at about that time. I think it's a database backup or automated maintenance.

Or maybe that was the point and you just wanted an excuse to wear a new tie.

Rene Angelil - Rene Angelil began managing the career of Celine Dion when she was 12 or 13 (the exact age escapes me). Ostensibly, their relationship was purely professional and appropriate until one magic day when Celine was 19 and she threw herself at HIM. We are to believe that there was a strictly platonic and professional relationship between the two for 5-6 yearsh, when one day, everything suddenly and magically changed. I used to hate Celine's mother for her failure to protect her, but to her credit, she did TRY to reverse course in the middle of Celine's teenage years and didn't know what she was getting into from the outset. An egregious error to be sure, but not an act of malice/negligence. She TRIED to prevent Renee from grooming her daughter. It was an earlier time, no internet existed to talk about the tactics of groomers or the abject depravity of the entertainment industry, so some allowances can be afforded to Celine's mother.

Rene, on the other hand, was a greasy as fuck 35 year old when he met the 13 year old Celine and was a greasy as fuck 41 year old when their "magical romance blossomed." Fuck this pedophile groomer and piss be upon him. Recently, Celine correctly expressed that she would be uncomfortable with a 30+ year old woman starting a romance with her teenage son. Maybe the Stockholm Syndrome will completely fade before her final days, maybe it won't, but she is at least not perpetuating the cycle.

Rene was a pedo groomer who operated in plain sight and praises were sung of his brilliance up until his death about 9 years ago. Fuck Rene Angelil, that greasy fucking monster.

the career of Celine Dion

Which entirely built upon volume more than her ability to actually sing.

If you think Celine Dion is somehow the "great" singer that her fans think she is, fight me. She's of the same ilk of people who sing schmaltz for the easily manipulated, like Josh Groban. Groban can actually sing, but it's damn near criminal the things he does sing.

I have a coworker that keeps using "inquiry" when they obviously mean "inquire". Like "I wanted to inquiry if you could update this?"

 

[Rick The Stick]

When old friends reconnect and immediately start trying to get you to be friends with their fucking partners/significant other/whatever the fuck you wanna call them.
Quit attempting to pawn your sad sack, anti-social manchild off on me. Maybe there's a reason you're the only one who can stand the fucker.

I hate it when someone cuts you off at an intersection, only to then drive at a snail's pace – all because they couldn't wait two extra seconds for you to pass, even though no one was behind you.

I also hate it when speedhumps aren't beveled correctly, so your car goes flying even if you're driving 10 under the speed limit.

 

[AnOminous]

There are real retards that look at this and think "Erm, that's gay."

It's gay.

 

[Squanto Airi]

Several things:

1. People who post the wares they want to get rid of under the "Free" tabs on sites only to post a price in the item description box. This also applies to posting two different prices on the item.
2. When nonlolcow and nonpolitical threads get featured on Community Happenings, not because I don't like them, but because the newfags, A&N Tards, and random lurkers all decide to thread-shit.

That’s bound to have a big affect on your productivity.

It’s incredibly annoying and unsafe when people take a thousand years to turn into a parking lot or something. Even when you have a good following distance, people act like they’re driving loaded semis. You’re creating a hazard jerking off in traffic like that. Just turn, it’s not that hard.

More so when pedestrians either walk on the shoulder when there is a clear, flat sidewalk beside them, wear all black while lurking in the darkness like fucking cryptids, or both.

People who try to sound smarter than they are and how they abuse newly found words to add to their vocabulary. "Look, I learned a new word! I don't know how to properly use it, when to use it, and whom to speak it to, so I'll just take my chances and spam this word over and over until I use it right!" When they could've just simply fucking looked at the word in the dictionary itself to better understand. That or you know, there are some conversations and situations where it's okay to use simple language. People sometimes turn a conversation when they're asked about how the weather is, into a monotonous exposition of breaking down every detail of the weather of that particular day. Dude, it's just fucking sunny, warm, and with some clouds out. Stop complicating shit!

 

[The Last Stand]

I'm thinking I'm smelling skunk or burnt rubber, but it's somebody smoking a blunt. I can SMELL it through my house. God, that's a strong smell.

I see why there's a no smoking rule here.

 

[Party Hat Wurmple]

Brioche bread/rolls. I'm tired of it. It's overrated. It's too sweet. Yet everything now from sandwiches to burgers is made with brioche bread and I can't stand it. What happened to the standard roll? Fuck brioche sucks....

 

[The Last Stand]

Brioche bread/rolls.

Great for French toast or occasional sandwiches, not all the time.

I hate how there is so many cheeses.

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

I hate how there is so many cheeses.

I wonder if Limburger cheese smells as nasty as all those old cartoons make it out to be.
