Rant Thread - What really grinds your gears?

[olbriar]

That does sound like being between the rock and the hard spot scenario. Bummer! Unless there is a successful treatment / cure for your random incapacitation I'm not sure that you have an option beyond seeking some other employment.

 

[Dngrsone]

Well, I'll be able to stay at the home base, but not go out on the lucrative travel assignements

 

[Milo Williamson]

At least you have a solid good reason not go, Drgnrsone.

 

[Dngrsone]

But I want to go. I need the change of pace, TBH, and the extra pay is nice, too.

 

[olbriar]

Is it the extended driving that's a concern? Perhaps a co-pilot....

 

[Milo Williamson]

I know the feeling my soon to be wife and myself, Wants a honeymoon and elope, oh she needs her rest.. Too bad she just delievered someone elses kid.

 

[dontpanicbobby]

Even @ $7.25 2X is cool. Depends on where you live though

 

[Dngrsone]

luckily, I make significantly more than $7.25... not that my bank account reflects that, hah. The land of fruits and nuts is expensive as hell to live in

 

[ozonetrooper]

Here, the burger flipper @ Micky D's makes more than $7.25.

 

[Milo Williamson]

Hehee.... I have around 800 plus coins Shhhhh, I did not say dollars, I said coins that is right

 

[dontpanicbobby]

Every time I share my phone number with a shopping website to purchase something I get an automated call for someone like Francisco, Pedro or Jorge.
Really Grinds my gears.

This right here.

Basically, because idiots keep chasing the iPhone fashion, I'm banned from having 5g and a battery that doesn't require surgeon skills to replace, or upgrade.

That and the staunch refusal of battery makers from making upgraded batteries for phones. The moto x pure advertised a 4000mAh battery but would go from full charge to 0% in 60 minutes of Pokémon go.

I shouldn't need the skills and tools, of an open heart surgeon, to replace a battery.
I shouldn't have to deal with the exploding Samsung battery, either.

 

[Milo Williamson]

What is really griding my gears, is that upcoming events, that is so non-existance to this present side of me, I cannot think that far in advance without some kind of anchor either. :: sigh:::

 

[joe71]

A burned out headlight which is going to cost me at least four hours of drive time

 

[dontpanicbobby]

@joe71 Do you ever get far from that truck?

People who stand by their cars while the alarm goes off for over a minute really grind my gears.

The thickness of milkshakes, inside a tiny plastic straws..

 

[Dngrsone]

You need giant boba straws for thick milkshakes, which is why I have a couple spares in my car for when I hit the Wendy's

 

[Milo Williamson]

Wendy's straws are amazing, I usually do not hit up there into town for one, I think the last one just sort of vanished without a care.
Still depending on how much the monster was for each other monster..

 

[Milo Williamson]

Wendy's was located a few miles down the road, I think the one at the union's still pretty much intact, but the other one went away,
huh, isn't that odd though? How come fast food joint's shut down suddenly and re open in a different location?

 

[olbriar]

Fast food and convenience stores it's all about traffic count. Location location location.

 

[Milo Williamson]

How come I look always so sleepy? No matter what the video or camera I take of myself?

 

[Milo Williamson]

How come there is way too many streaming services out there, meanwhile no one is looking for running the bg data check et all, when streaming?

 

[Milo Williamson]

Going on vacation in a bit from now, I do have up the wazoo laundry to take care of but in the same vein, I do have plenty of clothes to pack.
Isn't it funny how everything but clothes seem impossible to catch up on huh. So I will probably do that, that is going to be like 50% of my packing, the rest is my comics I am going to have to pack, but remember I have to put it on my back for a short amount of time, but it is going to be in the car hmmm.. Again trying to just chill and relax too..

 

[dontpanicbobby]

Way Oh

 

[Milo Williamson]

What the flying cowbell is this?
