Mega Thread What really grinds my gears.

[ChappyUK]

People walking around at a snails pace at shopping centres, often 3 or 4 wide, like they've got nothing else to do in their simple lives other than mope around looking at windows.

GTFO of my way you campaigners!

Those people are usually 3 or 4 people wide even if by themselves.

 

[Dinsdale]

Loud talkers in the office. Also loud eaters. Also people who come up to me in the office and just launch into whatever inane topic they want to talk about - how about 1 word first "hello".

Slow drivers. Theres a speed camera, fine, but it means "dont go over xx speed", not "drive 10km/h under this speed".

Then the flogs stop (because they cant walk and think at the same time) and then walk diagonally.

This shit pisses me off far more than it should.

It pisses me off when you see a bogan Port Power Puffer Flog walking around in either a Ford or a Holden jacket in ****ing summer.

I currently work beside some support staff and they spend the whole day bitching about how everyone who contacts them are ****ing stupid. They then tell.stories and get basic general knowledge facts totally wrong.

Thank **** for headphones

I can't stand campaigners that congregate outside restaurants, taking over the whole footpath while they say their goodbyes and wait on stragglers. Get the **** out of my way.

People who stand at the counter while they take forever to put their change away.

Move you dumb campaigner !!

Liking this fred.

 

[DEECEE]

People who have "hand luggage" so large you need a pack horse to carry then argue with the hostess for 10 minutes why they cant fit it in the overhead locker. pay your $10 baggage fee ffs.

 

[Jevy]

When campaigners wrestle their hands free, rip off the tape and start screaming.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Campaigners who don't know how to use the myki top-up machine. Spend half an hour working it out and then ask for the farkkin receipt.

[Paul Kersey]

People who go on a group lunch for work, split the bill and line up 10 deep at the register. **** off.

People who dissect the bill at any function - oh I only had one beer, an entrée and the steak. Here's $52.45. Do it once and you're on the 'never again' list.

 

[Vikingblood]

People who all of a sudden become professional punters and horse enthusiasts for spring carnival, FFS no one cares about your $14 collect on a $5 trifecta you campaigners.

More annoying are people who try to tell me that horse racing is a sport. No it's not. It's a monetary exercise presided over by dirty men in overcoats and hats and performed by short people who spend half their lives in saunas trying to shrink further. Racing is full of the dullest people in any industry I can think of. That really grinds my gears.

 

[David Schwarz]

- Richmond fans.
- Campaigners that can't drive.
- Anyone who has ever bought a Kanye West album.

Drops mic, Bender style.

 

[Vikingblood]

This would be mine too, people just wondering slowly like zombies. That and campaigners who stand on the right side of escalators like arseholes.

Even worse are those campaigners who refuse to walk on those 'travelator' things at the airport. Hey I'll just stand completely still in the middle of the thing while every one queues up behind me.

Half an hour is how long that abortion of a machine takes.

What sort of campaigner pays billions of dollars for technology that does not have enough power to support pacman

I ****ing hate myki

I ******* hate myki

I use Oyster everyday and now I only need my phone or contactless card. Boggles the mind how they ****ed up myki so badly

Labor government and ****ing up go hand in hand.

Well it's now the off season and basically we all need to prepare ourself for life without football and all the unsavoury, annoying shit called life that comes with it.

Great topic Chappyuk !!

What really grinds my gears are campaigners that take an eternity to get their cash at an ATM.

Seriously this technology has been around for a while now so everyone should know the drill. Enter Pin. Enter amount. No I don't want a ******* receipt. Simple.

People who still need to read the instructions like they are taking a ******* exam really grind my gears.

YES!

My father in law still goes into the bank once a month and gets out his money from the teller. If he runs out a week before, he will not go back for more until the 'right' date. He has never used an ATM or eftpos! Anyhoo yes those ATM campaigners are annoying...

Especially across from me is a 7/11 where all the junkies/unemployable hang out and drink $1 coffee. They can sit on a machine for five ****ing minutes. 'C'mon mate it's not a ****ing poker machine'

 

[KardiniaPark]

Why do I have to enter cents on an ATM cash withdrawal? That annoys me.

...and Victorians. They piss me off too.

Shit that's never actually clicked before. That is ridiculous.

It like the homeless that sit beside atms asking for cash.

I'm going to the atm because I'm out of money and there's no way I'm giving you a tenner.

 

[KardiniaPark]

Glitter.

Whoever invented that shit should be ******* shot. I have two girls and every ******* morning I end up being covered in the shit.

And to the campaigner at work who alway calls me Liberarche when he sees some. Next time I'm going to stab you in the eyes.

Why does he call you that? Liberace had hair

 

[Magruder]

campaigners who don't give up their seats on public transport for the elderly or pregnant.

****ers who decide to back into a parking space (meaning everyone has to wait for them to manouver). just to save them .43 of a second when they are leaving the shops

chicks who decide you have to "share" dishes at a restaurant. I want all of my curry, I don not want part of your salad.

People with hair. Those campaigners really grind my gears.
