... here are some random things that really "grind my gears":
* People who don't use their turn signals. I am not a mind reader.
* While at work, people approach me and ask, "excuse me ma'am, do you work here?" (I wear an apron with the name of the store on it, and a name tag)
* The commercial ads I frequently have to sit through repeatedly while watching movie previews and music videos online. I get enough on my television.
* The fact that no matter how many times I have tried to make coffee, it always tastes like crap.
* People who talk during a movie, specifically obnoxious teenagers. But, I will even extend this theatre no-no to my own friends and family who insist on asking me questions during the movie like I'm a freakin' psychic...
* The cast of The Real World on MTV. I'm not a huge fan of reality television, but I've been watching The Real World since it's first season in 1992. Originally the show did bring together a very "real" and eclectic group of early twenty somethings. Now, it seems they are cookie cutter party girls and frat boys. Yeah, it's full of drama and controversy, and I understand the public's love of "pretty" people. But ... it's not even close to the real world I live in.
* Speaking of MTV... I'm fairly certain MTV stands for MUSIC TELEVISION. Hmmm... I don't remember the last time I saw music videos on MTV. Sure, there's the pop driven TRL which features the favorite videos of 13 yr. old girls. But, that's about it. If you watch t.v. at my parents', my dad has MTV labeled as "NOT MTV". It apparently grinds his gears too :)
Alrighty. I feel better now. The bitching has ceased ... at least until the next edition of "You know what really grinds my gears??" ;)
