Rant Thread - What really grinds your gears?

Traction control is active every time engine is started. button disables only if i press it. my guess is the triangle warns about ice same as mirror, only more visible if you missed it showing on mirror.

The triangle with exclamation point indicates that 'Vehicle Stability Assist' is active on my 2009 Honda CRV. It probably corresponds to your Traction control. I see it light up on a rain slick road when making a 90 degree turn from a full stop. It goes off as soon as the vehicle is moving in a straight line after the turn.

Wow, it's surprising how non-standard this all is. Yours seems related to -

"See your dealer as soon as possible."

Think that goes back that what I posted about taking it to the dealership, and paying them $700 to put it right. If it's a problem with a computer or something and requires the manufacturer diagnostic machine, back street indy mechanics might not be able to do it.
 
People that don't understand my movie quotes.

I'm not sure if there is a way to upload and embed an mp3. I see your file for download, I'm not sure that's what you want though.

Oh, greatest Unforgiven-one, find us a way to embed mp3s here... I have a song that I'm mixing and mastering for 'da forums', and since I have a recording device like the ones that Zak, Nick and Aaron use on "Ghost Adventures" - I can record the master track at 320 kbps mp3, which is very good fidelity... and, the song is about AF, its cast of characters, and how wonderful it all is! You know that I love all of you... from your Well-Known Member, LW
 
Day one, since my better half left for Colorado. The dogs are fed and watered, and I am just one lonely SOB... I got some tracks started in the studio, but, even the dogs are feeling like I do. Right now, Laddy, the Border Collie, is whining... Java, the Irish Setter mix, has retreated to her bed. They miss my lady just as much as I do. January 7, please hurry up and arrive... there's no life in this house. The last time she left, she almost didn't make it back. My rant... for the day. I'm going to go ahead and take the dogs outside... any kind of change will be welcome. I'll take the phone with me, just in case (she has called me today, bless her beautiful soul). I know - whiny guys, in my humble opinion, usually drive me nuts. It's kind of like listening to REM's "Losing My Religion" with the 'repeat' button depressed. Depressed, did I say? Yep. Time for a clonazepam... LW

I found that doesn't work with all variations of youtube links.

Do a quote/reply of Unforgiven's post to see the new media tag format.

Thanks gentlemen. :)

EDIT: Oh, and I just found the media button to be able to embed videos. Looks like you can embed videos from other sites too. That's pretty cool.

LW, I'd rather have you missing her than worrying if she'll come home.;) Your rant is cool with me.

Thank you, Unforgiven; you're a kind soul. If anyone here has any YouTube video expertise, start a conversation with me and I'll take the musical credits, while whomever that can help will take video production credits. You know that I love you guys: EarlyMon, Kaat72, mikedt (by the way, do they have the 'Locks Of Love' program for cancer patients over in the province you're at in China? Your floors may be an endless supply for cancer patients - just a thought), Lordvincent 90, huh, PattiCake, zuben, sfbloodbrother, and the missed-but-not-forgotten Stinky Stinky, NickDalzell - all of you. This forum kept me encouraged and sane (whatever that is) while my wife-to-be fought for her life earlier this year - LW

Come back to me after kick starting a Vincent Black Shadow without opening the head pressure valve and we're in agreement on the pressure differential involved between the latest Tapatalk and reality.

I couldn't agree with you more, PearlyOne... the Black Shadow couldn't be suck-or-kick started by Tapatalk's latest folly... LW
