What grinds my gears...

People who carry on driving with their indicator on.

Just trying to get out of a junction. No car's coming left, nice. Look right, and someone has their left indicator on, and at a slow speed (was near school so loads of people walking about), so I go for it. He just drives forward instead.

My Dad did that a few days ago. I can't remember when or where that was but it was due to poor navigation, thinking we should turn left but my brother informed him to go straight ahead instead. Apologies if that was him :P

Getting into a discussion with someone on here, and then rather than answer you, or concede that you are right or that they may be wrong, they just stop replying.

I'll admit I did that to Kingfox last week, basically because he just kept spouting drivel about Dan Evans and Dean Hammond, then claimed he never said any of it despite there being posts to prove it, so I just gave up. I wouldn't normally but I find him hardwork.

eh, if you're referring to the animals rights thread there was no point continuing - I am right, we are supposed to eat meat (hence why it's recommended that vegans take supplements of lysine and possibly methionine due to the absence of it in purely herbivorous diets; hence why our appendix is the tiny, pointless little thing it is today: a relic from prior to our move to an omnivorous species) but if people won't accept the "it's part of a proper human diet" as reason to eat it, well I see no better reason and so no point continuing the discussion.

It wasn't you that specifically motivated my comment, it is a regular occurrence though, when you are discussing something with someone and ask them a direct question and they ignore you, it is frustrating.

Maybe they've got work to do. Or they've gone on holiday. Or something else in their real life.

Maybe people just tire of your incredibly out of touch champagne socialism

 

If that's the case then they ought to have the decency to say so on the thread involved rather than just randomly deserting it. 

 

But I guess just saying "screw you, you're an out of touch champagne socialist" doesn't really add gravity to ending an argument. Much like just saying "screw you, you're a out of touch selfish callous rightist".

People who want something for nothing.

I fixed my mates heating a couple of times, plumbed his dishwasher in when he moved. His hot water went last night. It's a faulty part on the boiler. Told him to ring our firm n theyll go sort it. Hes gone quiet as he was hoping I could do it (for free again)

 

That's a fair cop(per) for sure.  ;)

or a bj off a secretary with low self esteem?

Our receptionist is quite an old lady but funnily enough she is on holiday and has been replaced by a much younger temp. A lanky bit, kind of ratty looking but on good day you might get away with describing her as 'mousy'. Haven't had a chance to say hi yet but from the looks of her I'd say she almost definitely takes it up the arse. She's just has that way about her that screams I'm yours to what you want with, all you need to do is ask. So I reckon she's probably had a few helpings of pork sword from others in the building already this week. If I get a chance I'll take a shot at it.
