Rant Thread - What really grinds your gears?

think there is a country song about that^

Pretty sure there are quite a few about it. Lol.


Surprisingly enough - DMV was fairly painless - less than an hour. The bank on the other hand - I need to go back and make them fix the name on the account cause they removed my middle initial for some unknown reason. Grrr.

I was reminded of one this morning, and another over the last couple of days:

1) Morons who put HID bulbs in their reflector headlight housings. Without the cutoff of a projector housing you just blind everybody on the road. And why must you always turn your headlights on in broad daylight when you've done that? Are you showing off the fact that you're too cheap and/or too stupid to upgrade your entire headlight like you should? Tools like this are why you have some people trying to ban HID conversions entirely.

2) Putting cones and one of those stupid plastic "caution kids at play" signs in the road does not turn the street into your kid's playground. Either teach your kids to watch out for cars and get the hell out of their way, don't allow them to play in the street at all, or if you can't manage that, keep them inside or in the back yard. The street is there so I can drive to and from my house, not your snotty little kid's powerwheels. Shooting me a dirty look for driving the completely reasonable 25 mph limit past the area you've unilaterally decided is your crotchfruit's personal play area is not going to win me over either.

iTards. I ran into one on the bus today while playing The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on my phone. Guy wouldn't shut up about his iPhone. I had my Galaxy S 2 out. Told him that nothing will ever beat the sheer awesomeness of my Galaxy S 2 and Android. I told him I can run custom builds of Android and kernels. Guy still wouldn't shut up so I showed him Ocarina Of Time which made him shut up.
