You know what really grinds my gears....

[yeldar2097]

....during the day (nighttime for mine as well) she only is interested in one thing and thats ball.

she has tennis ball fetish.you must throw the tenis ball and she fetches it back to you..its all she does for 14 hours a day..every day..even when she is ill..she should be a ball girl for wimbeldon..

so..if you dont play ball she uses techniques to make you play like deliberatley lose her ball and cries till you get it back for her then you play..but im wise to her now..

Your dog and my dog should hook up. OBH will vouch for me.

What's grinding my gears is: 3hr online critical thinking exam, 28 hours of lectures/seminars per week, 5 hours of maths, 6 hours of electronics, my ex-gf who only became my ex because she got deported and disappeared just started talking to me again so I'm batshit confused about everything, run out of cigarettes, people (often couples) who think they rule to world and can look at you with disdain just because they have a child and are therefore 'better' than you....this list goes on.

Ok, end mini-rant. I think lack of WOHD TT is getting to me

[OBH]

Haha, sounds exactly like your dog!

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

Another things that grinds my gears......:Watching certain things at the wrong time. And not being able to sleep well because of it.And then seeming deprived the next day.
I'm typing this just immediately after I did the above. I was just wanting to concentrate on one thing: Digimon. Guess what? I deviated by a million miles and ended up watching clips of Trauma Team. And as of post,I am in no mood to sleep. And I have choir practice in the morning tomorrow. Goodness Gracious. And it's not helping in that I need to fully concentrate tomorrow...

When Megavideo cuts you off 5 mins before the end of an episode of Breaking Bad.

[MrSmadSmartAlex]

Haha, I know that feeling all too well, FEISAR. I should have gone to bed early last night, but instead I decided that playing speed lap on Pulse would be a better idea (after not bothering to play Pulse for ages due to laziness XD), and as a result, had to operate machinery today while fighting the urge to fall asleep.
As long as you don't make a habit of it and don't do it when you have something very important the next day, it's not too bad though.

edit: Megavideo... yes, OBH.
I always try to remember to reset my router before loading a video on there, because it also resets my IP address and the limit for Megavideo.

When players in MW2 kill you everytime, which can get annoying .

Noob toobs? or Tac Knifes? God, I hope they fix some of this stuff for Black ops.
Modern Warfare 2 has a strange ability to both grind and lubricate my gears. (Is 'lubricating' the opposite of grinding? I think so)

Anyway, what's grinding my gears atm is Perth bus drivers. Half of them drive like they're behind the wheel of a 20-odd ton bus (i.e. smoothly and calmly) and the other half like to drive like they're Michael Schumacher...with a 20-odd ton bus.

Rest assured harvai, the flak jacket perk in black ops will basically nullify tubes and explosives http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6R4DOxrFXo
There's also no equivilent of 'sonic boom' or 'danger close'

[OBH]

I'm fuming. Desperate to help my girlfriend with her problem at work but i don't know how.

She works at a Dry Cleaners -- Its just her, one other girl (a known theif), and her two bosses (who are also best friends, nasty pieces of work and big time slags, so yeah, classy women) so when a problem arises (ruined clothes etc), they insinuate that its Chelsea (my girlfriend) every time. They recently lost some contracts with hotels (the majority of their work) because of their incompetence yet said it was Chels.
More serious than that; Chelsea's purse recently went missing from the spot where she has always left it and their responce was "anything could have happened to it", as its a business "within friends" as it were she hasnt had her contract renewed, and we think that they've illegally put her wages down without telling her, and suspiciously she hasn't recieved her payslip in the last 3/4 months either. We went hunting for the old ones and realised their totally illegible and just don't add up.

With the current economy and such she cant just quit as finding another job could prove difficult.
All I can think of is insist they write her up a new contract because at the moment she doesn't have a leg to stand on.

Personally I hope she can find another job soon so I can bowl in there and tell them to sort their fu*king lives out.

.....

Think an arson charge would be worth it?

[mdhay]

No, if you lose your job, and sh emay as well not have one, what good will it do in the long run?

Unless you say that you wanted a bonfire there, so you set one, then was attacked by a racoon that took you home and gave you amnesia.. then say "I'm sorry, what?"

Might work.

Your dog and my dog should hook up. OBH will vouch for me.

run out of cigarettes,

Yeldar you shouldnt be smoking you are too young for that. plus its bad for your health...



this is my dog.obviously it dosnt wear a wipeout helmet in real life.though she should do with all her running around after her tennis balls and th risk of banging her head..

whats grinding my gears today is..........

heavy traffic..way too many cars on the roads..imagine what itll be like in 20 years..

[SaturnReturn]

I can't imagine it being worse than my train today. I swear to god that 99% of people waiting for a train undergo some strange process of regression and become something with the mental capacity (and physical capabilities) of a weeble. Ask them to let you through and they won't budge. Offer them a bigger hint by gently nudging through a little and they'll just lean to one side a little bit. Why on earth can't they just get off the freakin' train and then get on again? It's not that hard!!!

[Nutcase:259]

OBH that sucks for her if shes not getting paychecks that add up thats basically like being jobless, and me thinks you should definatly get police involved and or get higher management involved if its like a chain of shops? it might have an area manager? ask them for CCTV footages and stuff, it mandatory for that isnt it?



what grinds my gears is....

i served 2 people today and they absolutely reeked of pi55, i mean what the hell????? i dont care if your old an bloody incontinent or what ever, jesus i mean seiously??

[Oryx Crake]

@nutcase: it is rather distressing when you cant get away from it too... I imagine especially since it was in some sort of service establishment(?) that it got on the other customers nerves to?

... what really grinds my gears today are floorball players who have no sense of fairplay, you dont push your ass in someones face, repeatadly especially not the goalie (me).

I mean I understand trying to block the goalie's view but actually trying to push your cheeks around someones face... disrespectful!

[blackwiggle]

I was just wondering what Floorball was as I've never heard of it before.
This guy looks pretty skillful.

[Nutcase:259]

very distressing indeed! he was in one of those mobility scooters and was blocking all means of escape. i just carried on but looked at the next customer and gave them a look as if to say FOR ****'s SAKE. cant belive there were 2 in the same day?? it was ment to be my day off too. Im never working fridays again! seems all the wierdos, drunks, gypsies come out that day.


floor ball? thats a type of hockey isnt it? like field hockey but on a ice hockey rink like pitch layout minus the ice (sorry if thats grossly ignorant )

never nice to have another blokes ass in the face

[Oryx Crake]

@blackwiggle: yeah he looks pretty skilled indeed, bit of a nerd for it though I'd say, I just play for fun, my class in uni has a team 20 minutes every saturday basically

@nutcase: urgh, you got one of those bosses who calls you at 8 in the morning saying something like "I know it's your day off and all but we really need you to come in by 9" too?

yeah your description is pretty accurate and not to worry about being ignorant it's a sport thats played... pretty much in scandinavia and finland so no worries there.

and no it's never nice to hav another blokes arse in your face like that

[Nutcase:259]

lol i dont mind working really, so long as im paid i dont give a monkeys

however if they rang me in the morning i would be annoyed. they aproached me the day before though so its alright

the general lack of PC gaming among teenagers.

[Aeroracer]

[mdhay]

Teenagers go outside. They do not.
