What Grinds Your Gears? :) - Page 181

It grinds my gears that we can't steal the shoes of ISIS and Al Qaeda and drop infinite amounts of Legos around them.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 03-18-2015, 12:20 AM

And tacks. The push pin kind.

*ProactiveMan* · 03-18-2015, 12:27 AM

And toy stegosaurs.

*pennydreadful* · 03-18-2015, 12:29 AM

Also freshly barfed hairballs. Those are never fun to step on in bare feet either. I'm sure my cats would be happy to donate a few.

This makes me think of Home Alone or some sh*t.

Bank Of America.

Their online banking is BULLSH*T. It's never accurate & as a result I'm constantly spending money that apparently isn't f*cking there & then getting buttf*cked for overdraft fees. I'm going to go in there & scream at somebody today & then close my account.

*Jephael* · 03-18-2015, 12:45 PM

Preparing myself for a good night's sleep so I can get up early for a meeting with my job coach, only to be woken up at friggin 10 PM by an automated call from my cardiologist's office reminding me of an upcoming appointment. Oh well, I wasn't the only person that was rudely awakened by it. I can't wait to see the look on the receptionist's face when my dad brings it up. LOL!!!

*BubblyShell22* · 03-18-2015, 04:41 PM

I agree that there are some people in this world who you can't help but hate. I only talked about wishing death as being horrible in Mew's case because his dad had an affair and while I think that's a horrible thing, I don't think the guy should die for it, just have his nether regions taken away so he doesn't do it again.

But, Duckie, I feel you on your situation and why you wish that, and I don't blame you for it. I do wish death on certain people because I just feel that there are people in this world who should never be on this Earth to begin with if they want to act like classless human beings. These people are: child molesters, rapists, abusers, murderers (not ones who do it in self-defense), terrorists, and dictators to name the main ones. I also feel that I won't be totally sad about my dad's death when he dies. I'll be sad more for the man he SHOULD have been and wasn't. Same goes for my sister. I'll be mourning the person she USED to be instead of the manipulative and callous b*tch she is now.

Wells Fargo is pretty accurate online. I have no complaints with them.

Yea, my folks and I were considering joining them when we moved out to the Harrisburg area, but we settled with a local bank known as Orrstown. They've been doing a fine job with our finances.

*IndigoErth* · 03-18-2015, 05:23 PM

Ditto on the Wells Fargo, they've been pretty good.

Only annoyance I've had is their monthly fee on my meager funds that they started a while after buying out Wachovia, who I'd had free checking with forever.

*Cure* · 03-18-2015, 05:40 PM

They've never taken a fee from me, so I dunno what's up with that.

*Jephael* · 03-18-2015, 05:42 PM

Oh here's a gear grinder I've been meaning to mention: When I'm signed onto YouTube and going through my video subscriptions, I open a video and it starts with one of those stupid ads you can't skip over. What's worse is once the ad is over it's just dead air and the video you want to watch won't load.

I didn't for a while, it was something they rolled out through various regions over time (based on being a former Wachovia customer) and took a bit for it to hit me, but that was a while ago. Although if you have a certain amount in the bank or are putting in at least a certain amount each month they, from what I understand, supposedly don't take a fee.

Just don't go broke or they may start bleeding it out of you... (Just the checking though, they leave my savings account alone.)

*Powder* · 03-18-2015, 06:06 PM

Yeah, BOA hit me with a monthly $12 "Maintenance fee" a few months back out of no-where, which is just one of many reasons I'm giving them the boot. They ought to be paying me $12 just for tolerating their garbage service... Given it's the only other biz in town I'll be having to get an account with a local joint, but I appreciate the suggestion.

senpai · 03-18-2015, 10:14 PM

All this talk about banking made me check my online account and freakin Norton won't stop charging me for their products! Like it's some automatic renewal thing that I told them I DON'T want and yet they still charge me. Do I have to change my account number or something?! This is ridiculous.

*Netkeeper* · 03-19-2015, 03:19 AM

Frustration of the day:

When you're waiting on something, having to be gentle or crack a million jokes in order to keep it happening. I'm FRUSTRATED with having to wait long for things, and I want to express that frustration. But if I do, it pisses the person off, and they won't do the thing at all that way.

Why the **** can't people just understand that waiting frustrates me, especially if it's way off schedule and messes with EVERYTHING I was planning, and let me be angry at it instead of having to hold it in?

I'm also angry that because of **** ****ing with my plans, AGAIN, I probably won't be able to visit my friend that I haven't been able to go see in over a year. I told her that this year I was going to try to visit more often, and now it's ****ing March and I still haven't done it, and once April hits I won't be able to do it then, because they've got another visitor in April who hates me, so I'm not going to be able to do it then. That means I won't have done it until we're 5 months into the ****ing year. Oh yeah, I'm spectacular at keeping my word. Maybe I'll just keep my ass holed up for another ****ing year.

And even my video games are pissing me off. I have literally no escape from my anger now.

Spoilers all over the frackin' internet about Issue 44 grind my gears... plus I now feel like someone's ripped my heart out via my butt. I'm completely and utterly traumatized.
