Rant Thread - What really grinds your gears?

Idiots who think parking rules don't apply to them, such as the jerks who made me miss a bus by staying so firmly camped in the red-curb area designated for buses to load that it couldn't pick me up. Apparently staff of the business the stop was in front of, too.

Got them a nasty note on Yelp (I created the account to post that review), and cost them my trade for good. Yes, they have great red velvet, but I refuse to reward inconsiderate jerks who think they're above the law with my business.

Good for you. Too many people think rules don't apply to them. Littering also comes to mind. Not just the usual trash, but couches, lawnmowers, fridge get abandoned by the roadside.
 
I just put my old Marshall Valve amp, Dunlop Cry Baby Wah pedal and a Zoom 707 effects pedal up for sale. :( :mad:

I would love to keep them, but we need the space.

Gutted, seriously.
 
I got back from my golf tournament yesterday evening and took home the gold. My tournament was the annual Special Olympics state games. I played 9 holes of alternate shot with my dad along with one team on Friday and two on Saturday. My dad was my partner. Shot a 64 on Friday during the preliminary round and a 62 in the final.
 
Politicians are bending over today. Canceled classes just so a religious group can take over the city. Disturbed everyone just to do their medical mission. Would be great if they did it in a way that didn't bother anyone else. I thought they were supposed to be humble in the service of the poor??? No. Instead they closed off roads and triple parked in the highway! What government would allow this??

Only in the Philippines.

I don't like it when the catalog description doesn't quite match the actual product... I just bought a $260 torque wrench for work, thinking it was adjustable; it is adjustable, but only using a special tool. The device is designed for repetitive use at a single torque setting.

That part want in the catalog, and that wasn't what I was expecting.

Fortunately, my boss is nice and won't make me pay for the tool, and there is a torque value that we do need this tool for that our other wrenches can't get to, so we will dial it to that, and just have to carry two torque wrenches with us to the plane.
 
I guess the silver lining is that I'm feeling so under pressure.. stressed and pizzed off that I told two people "NO" today!!! in fact. not only did I say no...I told them right off!!!:D
 
people driving slow in the fast lane the same speed as others in the othr slow lanes. GET OVER YOU OBLIVIOUS AND ARROGANT PRICKS.

We all pitched in on the road. it is not yours.

If there is a line behind you, and no cars in front of you, you are the problem and causing traffic. STOP IT.

Ok, I feel a little better.

You tell 'em!

I usually preface every conversation with "No."

It does a pretty good job of lowering others' expectations.

The fact that my stbx is claiming incomepacity benefits while working and never paid tax for 20yrs and continues to drink and drive while on ban..and somehow people still think hes a great guy ...well hes not
 
Verizon. They grind my gears the most. And it's not an understatement. I hate their contracts. If I want to get a phone, and it's only on Verizon, i'll wait. Or I'll flash/unlock it. As if it isn't enough, they include their stupid, flashy logo on every single device. I like Sprint the most you see-- they don't include their logo on most devices. And when they do, it's not on the home button, like on the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Apart from that, Verizon costs a lot. At least I have prepaid on Sprint.

...and that is why I have a pure hatred for Verizon.

Got to get myself to do my own homework. I hate that feeling where the teacher is like "Did you do the Homework" and I'm like. "We had Homework?"

My school, YES Prep, is a jerk when it comes to homework. They give you insane amounts of homework. And if you forget one, tiny problem/question on the homework -- WALLSTREET FOR YOU!
Wallstreet is where you stay until 6:00 because you didn't do the homework. And if you didn't do it during Wallstreet, you get reassigned again.
