what grinds my gears is when my company wants to move my position for the simple sake of moving... all while increasing their operating expenses in the process.

When you microwave something... believe the food to be pipin' hot... only to find out that the top layer is hot and the remaining bottom half is still ice cold-- stuck with a mouth-full of hot AND cold food.

When people jaywalk, causing you to slow down. Upon seeing you (read: a car) heading towards them, they make no attempt to pick up the pace, or heaven forbid--jog across the street. Like they're too 'good' for that or something:rolleyes:

We watch jackasses do that every day on the mall. I wish it was legal to mow 'em over. Except they usually also laugh at the person they're blocking.

Oh yeah, that's a bad area. This happened on 6th ave, heading East from Colorado Blvd. Its a residential area, with plenty of stop lights. Plus its not very busy (even during rush hour). The douche could of just waited, but instead he chose to slowly walk out in front of me, never attempting to hurry...sigh. Whatever.

Yep, I HATE when people do that. I always pick up the pace when I'm crossing a street because I feel bad I'm making them wait haha.

When I lived in Vegas I was told it was legal to run over pedestrians there as long as you could prove you tried to stop LOL. Not sure how true that was, maybe it was just a fantasy I had LOL.

I can't remember if I've said this before (and am too lazy to sift through umpteen pages to find out)...

When people don't remove the default signature setting from their mobile devices (and now come to find, i-pads) - which is why I'm getting irked by this [again, possibly]
