What Grinds Your Gears?

[HiFi Magnetics]

I'll start with people inside the car parked and on a cellphone laughing, at the same time leaving "Headlights ON" while blinding someone in the other end. Possibly a family having a sit down dinner at a restaurant with a big spotlight.

Actually, Mine's a Rockwell/Allison Powershift, I just happen to have this older 18 speed sitting under the bench that I pulled from our old 98 Pete, had planned to rebuild it some day as a spare, but just haven't gotten around to it!

When you come out of the local tavern on a hot day and bystanders are giving you dirty looks because you left the kids in car. I'm like what's your problem I left the windows cracked.


Seriously though I hate hot weather and it's not boding well for us this summer. I will probably have to crack the windows down a little further on my next visit to jugs & mugs.

Are you serious? I don't have the time to come up with the things that "grind my gears". I live in potland for Christ's sake!
Come spend a few hours here every day for a week or two, and you'll have my list!

Pretty much anyone under 30
EDIT: That's not fair, so I'll change it to:

Pretty much anyone under 30

And anyone over 70 who refuse to give up driving

70 isn't 'that' old...I'd say 85

My late father passed at 80. He was already having issues driving at 70, but refused to give up

I know people put someone pushing 82 holding a launch code and claiming he can walk and chew gum at the same time.

People at 4 am screaming like they are being kidnapped and someone trying to drag them into their car. Just stfu I say, trying to sleep dammit! (Happened 2 nights ago in PDX).

Nothing, "Grinds My Gears" for very long. I just think, "God Will Get Them For That."

(And if I can help, I will.)

People who think they deserve respect just because they made more laps around the sun than I have. Or because they severed in a military somewhere, yet never in a combat role. Or because they have a master's/doctorate. Respect is something you earn every single day, it's not something you're entitled to for existing.

Yeah, an 82 year old having a senior moment while driving can kill a few. Having a senior moment as commander in chief can kill legions.
