You know what grinds my gears?

When you're playing Tetris, and you get to that point where there's two perfect blocks on either side of the screen, and all you need is one line piece to get rid of those blocks, but noooooo you keep getting L piece after L piece, and finally when you're like "screw it, I'll just use the damn L piece" and after you use it leaving a gap in the blocks that you can't get rid of, you get a line piece, and then another line piece, and then another freaken LINE PIECE, AND THE LINE PIECES KEEP ON FREAKEN COMING LIKE THE TETRIS GODS ARE LAUGHING AT YOUR FAILURE!!!!111!!!!1 *hair bursts into a raging fire and lazar beams shoot out of my eyes killing everything around*

Reminds me of that College humor movie "Tetris God". Watch it and you can see where they are going with it.

Oh, my, god, that video expresses my exact situation every time I work up the courage to start another round at Teris, curse the damn game, and all of it's addictive features #noelrage

When I am driving along, minding my own buisness, and someone decides they want to pass me because they want to drive 1 mph faster than me. They go to pass...and they drive right next to me for like 5 minutes trying to pass. The part that really gets me is that I'm sitting here trying to sing "Love Story" by Taylor Swift but this jerk won't hurry the heck up so I only end up humming it trying not to sing it where they can see me! What...a....JERK! #rage

You know what grinds my gears? Parents who don't monitor their children's Intertube activities, for example, the whole ''Jessi Slaughter''debacle. It's pointless. She made the remarks, she got trolled, she deserved it. For her to make it seem like she's this innocent person, it makes me want to find her parents, and *explective*. That is all.

Re: What grinds your gears?
 

Know what grindeth my gears teeth...eths?!

Several things again:
One: Effening cyclists when I'm walking my dog. I admit I am near on obvilious due to my MP3 player playing rhapsody of fire or some other of my favourite songs but that's because only like one in every million uses their freaking bell to warm others ahead of them. Seriously, it's part of basic cyclist gear, get one so you don't ram your front wheel up a peds rear end before I take your chain and wrap it round you neck and ring your skull with your blasted gear changer!

two: Players on a game called League of legends who start talking smack about champions and such and even start rage-quitting. I sometimes take it as a source of pride knowing I'm good enough to make people annoyed but it annoys me when they start just yelling and whining 'YOUR CHAMP IS OP, PLAY A CHAMP WHO TAKES SKILL' and all the while I am carefully placing myself and moving in the way my champion works and kicking their butts because they are too dumb to try and counter-act my powers. Knowledge is power, I know champions well and I know countering them doesn't take much and sometimes it's downright impossible for some champions to counter others...blasted 10 year old americans.

three: Dealing with your baby niece crying all the -bad word- way back from a gaming night and you can't even vent your rage because it's considered 'impolite'. Tell everyone this: was within an inch of smashing all the car windows, grabbing my brother and punching his lights out with pure rage. Seriously, I know it's not a fair comment but I have rights to whine when I ain't even allowed basic means to exert anger without getting further harassment (like causing myself pain via repeated punching to the leg, clenching fist, breathing hard. etc. Really does get to me).

four: dealing with a whiney wargaming player who doesn't know his rules and tactics. 'Durhur, I know my opponent fields the hardest tank in dez game, I will only bringz enoughz for one of dem tankz' and then he gets ticked when I tell him his usual means of tank busting ain't gonna cut it. Seriously, he was trying methods reserved for more general tanks, the tanks I was fielding are known through out the game as not only well above average but are considered the 2nd toughest tank to bring down in the game without having to resort to super-heavies. The worst bit is when he starts rolling dice behind things, really does get at me. I'm about to start giving him real stick about it soon.

five: MP3 playing phones (like the one I use) which have a 'power conserving' feature which denies you music and such like when the means it tells you by is lighting up brightly for 5 seconds. Thats five seconds of music could been playing. And it ALWAYS happens at the songs best bit.

Well thats my gear-grinders out.

When people assign papers based upon a certain length, aka by words, pages, etc. How do they not realize that the paper writes itself?! I mean, minimums and maximums are for either lazy people or over achievers. If the paper is good, neither would be necessary...quality over freaken quantity! #noelrage

Re: how Missourians and other flat-landers drive.
I see this isn't an isolated case about idiots rich enough to afford their driver's license by acquiring grocery store cereal boxtops and mailing them to Jeff City for voucher redemption. I find if I cut them off and pass a vehicle while in the other lane in front of them they will get pissed and speed up. At worst they will always be reflected in your rearview mirror usually 1 bumper width away from your trunk. At best another unsuspecting fast driver will pass us both and the rearview mirror reality will change into a mirage while marrying itself to within 3 car lengths of the new speed racer.
Years ago I used to be friendly and professional re hill climbing in a big rig (18-wheeler to those of you from Rio Linda) by always occupying the extreme right-lane. The true test of professionalism occurs at the hill's crest where merging from 2 lanes to 1 becomes a footnote for a Twilight Zone movie. I have yet to fathom why some drivers will slow down matching your hill-climb speed and only be midway past your 53' trailer indefinitely. Is it a death wish? There's an accumulative affect from witnessing and enduring all this concrete buffoonery. Either you bite the bullet and wonder "What would Jesus do?" or you get even with the bast**d(s) while reinventing the definition of road rage. Driving a vehicle used to be fun and may still be if you're on a mesa somewhere in Utah 4-wheeling with friends. As for city and urbanscape driving, hell is for heroes; nice folks should relocate elsewhere or ride the train.

What grinds my gears? Paypal! Those a-holes seem to have some weird vendetta against me. . .

As a former high school English teacher, I very strongly agree. And in the same vein, why are the same books assigned year after year? Books comprising "The Canon" should be read and discussed, of course, but how many times should the same student be forced to revisit the same d_mn author?!
