Y'know what really grinds my gears?

NASCAR.

I mean seriously, how can you even like that sport? I mean it's just a bunch of cars, demonstrating how to get in and out of a traffic jam! And they're going in circles for hours! How can you find this shit fun and enjoyable?

Anyway, got something to vent about? Post it here!

EDIT: Y'know what else grinds my gears. The Search bar.
I mean, who does this guy think he is? He appears on a random thread, blurts his name, then hightails it out of there, without even contributing! I don't know who you are Mr. Bar, but your crazy antics annoy us all. Please stop.

Motor "Sports" - they're not sports, endurance tests yes, but not sports.

Being ill - this needs no clarification.

Y'know what really grinds my gears?

Formula 1.

Lot's of cars driving around a track and the most interesting thing about it is when they crash. I mean, if you want a proper racing series, try Lawnmower Racing or The International Motorhome Grand Prix. That's how real men roll.

... You know, there was a thread with this exact same name back near when I first joined.
Not complaining, or anything. I just thought it should be noted.

Anyway, I guess I should contribute.

You know what really grinds my gears?

Teenagers.

They go about with their loud music and their strange words that either make no sense or are complete perversions of perfectly decent words that are then rendered entirely unusable, fly from one emotion to the next like a particularily hormonal pregnant woman and never shut up about how awful their parents are for not buying them a car or a house or whatever.
They should all just grow up and stop being within the ages of twelve and twenty. I mean, come on, what are they, children?
Seriously.

EDIT: Clarification. All that up there?
Silliness.
I am a teenager. Calm down.

Any kind of activity that involves driving any kind of vehicle over and over again in a circle.

Poorly lubricated drivetrains.

Also, people who don't get motor sports. What's not to love about engineering, competition, physical prowess and badass cool cars all rolled into one?

Hey, no need for generalizing. Those are teenage idiots, not teenagers.

OT: Referencing something to seem cool. That, and school propagating on stopping global warming and other things that I incidentally disagree on. And grown-ups who take me for a foolish child. I have a brain.

You know, if they're NASCAR drivers, you'd think they'd have better clutch control than that...

Top Gear for the win.

You know who doesn't care what you think, and makes Million upon Millions of dollars every year?

Look at it this way. Anything that you love, there is always somebody out there that will say the same thing about it as you just did with NASCAR.

So what grinds my gears? People that complain about irrelevant things.
