Rant Thread - What really grinds your gears?

People that went to the University of Pretend. That really grinds my gears. I understand being learned on a subject or being an expert, by actually having experience with the subject, but there is a point when it just becomes stupid. I don't give a **** how many times you have seen ER or Grey's Anatomy (or whatever the medical show) you're not a doctor.

I have a few:

#1 A mother yells at her 5 year old son for his pants sagging. Hello stupid who bought his pants 3 sizes to big and didnt provide him with a belt.

#2 Ignorant people with no sense backing up out of a driveway almost hitting another car and chasing the car they almost hit down the street and verbally insulting the driver for not stopping makeing threats of physical harm and saying so what if you call 911 they have a full tank of gas while stopped at a light in front of the police station.

#3 Heres the best one of all instead of the government stealing from all of our childrens education why dont they take from there own pockets if people who have 5children can live off of $1650. a month it wont hurt them to take a pay cut. If they cut another 20% there will no longer be any state preschools. Whats next?

Virgin mobile raising prices from $25 to $35 for my plan. It's like, "ooh a bunch of ppl are using our service, great, let's say thanks by charging them more, since we're making more anyways from all the new business "I mean, yeah, I get it, and I expected it, but no one said I had to like it, right?

*and yes, it's still cheaper than what I was paying at at&t for a 'dumb phone' plan, but still...

You what grinds my gears? People that get into the carpool lane with just themfreakinselves!!! I mean where the hell are the damn cops when that is goin on. Sure but they are there to see you run a yellow light! Anyways, this has been a moment of what grinds my gears.....

That said, understand that here in Utah, you can purchase a permit that allows single drivers to use the carpool lanes. So some of us use the lane legally. Just sayin'
