    Default What really grinds your gears?

    Haha, I know this same idea was on Family Guy, but I thought it might make an entertaining thread...

    So...what really grinds your gears? Just write about anything that you find to be really annoying in here.

    What's wrong with Family Guy?
    If at first you don't succeed, fuck the world and smoke some weed.

    I think someone people say they don't like Family Guy just for the sake of rebelling against something thats popular, and successful. I'm not saying you are, but I think a lot of people do that.

    There is one thing I hate about that show, though. It almost like the plot is designed around the jokes, unlike the other way around.

    There's no "almost" about it. This is why Family Guy is absolutely hilarious in shot-glass doses of about 5 minutes each, but usually horribly boring otherwise. This is also why I can say that I like the show but I never want to watch it and am never in the mood to watch it.

    More:
    -People who call soda "pop"
    -Christians (any religious people, really, but especially American Xians)
    -People who barely speak any English but have lived in America way too long for this to be acceptable
    -Fans of evil sports teams

    Seconded.
    Also:
    -People who quote some kind of popular "indie" lyrics in their AIM profiles in a combination of 3 colors and "strategically" placed bold, italics, and underline.

    -Indie lyrics in general. I hate how the goal has become to say small things in the most drawn-out, pretentious way possible rather than saying a lot in few words.

    -People who use unnecessary ellipses all the time to make themselves seem more pensive.

    -People who use high-beam headlights on well-lit roads.

    -Having to go back to my old high school to watch my brother's basketball games and having to socialize with parents who I don't even recognize and my horribly annoying former Spanish teacher who loved me for some stupid reason.

    -Driving behind Buicks. They're ALWAYS the slowest cars on the road.

    -Bandwagon Red Sox fans. No matter how much people want to bitch about the Yankees, and yes, they are justified, there's no denying that the Boston Red Sox bandwagon is the biggest recent bandwagon in sports.

    -People who are like "You're current browser sucks. GET FIREFOX FIREFOX its the most kickass web browser evar!!!!!11 8===========D " Shut up. Yes, it's a good browser. But did you design it? No. Did you discover it? No. Why do you fucking care? Besides, everyone knows about Firefox already. I don't understand the pleasure people get out of pimping it. Sometimes people just piss me off.

    -Athletes who retire and think they're "going out on top." Also, people's lack of realization that this is stupid. Take Roger Clemens. He was going to retire after a good season with the Yankees. "Classy move, going out on top," said all the cheesedick analysts. But oh, wait! The guy stays for a couple more years in Houston and pitches two of the best years he ever has. How the fuck does one know that they were ever "on top" unless they've started to decline? I have much greater admiration for the athletes that stay in the game longer until they're stuck on the bench and can't get into the game.

    -Finally, I try to stay away from racism and prejudice in general, but I can't deny that I kind of hate the following:
    -Jews
    -Indians
    -Koreans
    -Greeks
    -The French
    -Bostonians

    That is all.

    Ahhh.... Good 'ol Peter Griffin...

    -people that chew with their mouths open
    -people that talk to me, but I have no idea who they are
    -People that listen to Green Day because they think they are the first ones to make a rock album with a story. (Pink Floyd's The Wall anyone?)
    -People that try to shove food down my throat when I'm not hungry
    -people that try to make me do stuff I don't wan to do
