What Grinds My Gears

This page is dedicated to all the things that push my buttons, drive me insane, pet peeves, or what grinds my gears. This page will be updated frequently.

People trying to negotiate the price at the cash register. The price is what it is! Shut up, pay it or leave it and get out of line!

Drivers who won’t turn right on red.

Being asked my telephone number/account number AFTER I already entered it using the keypad on my phone. I thought I was supposed enter that info to “better assist me”. So why did I go through all that bother?

Being told press 1 for English. I’m in America it’s the only language that should be accepted!

Someone standing over my shoulder reading the computer screen.

Jerks who take up 2 parking spaces.

Unexpected company.

When someone with a full cart of groceries gets into the 10 items or less line.

People who talk during and give parts away because they’ve already seen it.

People who chew with their mouth open.

People who no matter what relate to something you have done and try to “one up” you. (my mother-in-law does it all the time)
