The one thing that really grinds your gears.

Oh, another one.

When people are engrossed in the middle of a nice, calm, civil, knowledge expanding conversation and discussion and then without warning someone decides that it must be stopped with no real reason given.

Yeah. That.

I'd second that.

Another one: How the mods get to use large avatars while we're stuck with these tiny ones.

Rank hath its privileges.

And the current trend of discussion is leaning awfully close to discussing moderator actions.

My own personal pet peeve is that hotdogs come in packages of ten, but buns come in packages of eight, meaning you have to buy 80 of each in order to maintain perfect symmetry. That's why I hate grocery shopping.

Same reason I disliked MS points :P

Check your math: 40 will do just fine :P

What grinds my gears? People who try to win arguments by emotions rather than rational statements

I just buy the larger hotdogs that only come 8 to a pack.

D'oh! :blush:

That reminds me of my second pet peeve: Math. It never was my best subject, even though I understood the concepts just fine most of the time. My real problem was not actually double-checking my results to make sure I hadn't accidentally skipped some vital step, like factoring correctly.

And yet, here I am playing a game where mathematics acts as a fantastic force multiplier. Irony at its finest.

This thread seems worthy of being a forum game rather than a general off topic, since we're mostly listing and comparing what bugs people.

It'll really bug me though if it goes off topic. Let's try to stay to the subject at hand please.

I would have to say either the arrogant, self-important cocks who all have skateboards at my school and think that they are so much better than we because I wank home on my own and go to the library during lunch time.

The people at my school who randomly give slang words a different meaning and look annoyed when you have to ask what it means, the hypocrites, the obnoxious twelve year olds who play too much Call of Duty. The really annoying person who sits next to you on the train/bus and plays awful music through tinny speakers. and the fact that no what happens, I still can't get the lid off the pickle jar.

Rant over, continue.
