Extremist groups, bullies, bigotry, cheating and fan fiction which contains a lot of gore/character derailment/frequent canon character deaths. The first three because they are some of the cruelest non-criminal things a person can do, the fourth because it's unfair and ruining the fun of a game, and the fifth because it seems to miss the point of the original series (if it's something like Pokemon or My Little Pony).

What do I do now?
Let's see what really grinds my gears....

I can't stand bad grammar or people who misuse the word 'there' or 'their' or 'there are'
Like when someone says, "Yeah, there people out their who say that." And when they constantly mess up words. Don't get me wrong, everyone does that sometimes, it's just when someone has like a chronic case of it that they constantly mess up the most easy word there is, that's when it bugs me.

And yes, abusing power. There are several users on here who abuse their power.

And baby crying. Don't get me wrong, I can take it most times, but when they sit directly behind and I can't hear my own thoughts anymore because they refuse to take the baby out of the room, that's irritating.

I agree. I come back after who knows how long it's been since I've been on this forum, and see this sh*t in misc. Mother of God.

Oh Something that really really really grinds my gears is when a guy with mid-length hair who wears a cap almost 24/7 sit in front of you in class and keeps flicking their hair about the place. That is the most irritatingly annoying thing that has happened in my life. Who gives about their hair? You might as well play "Whip My Hair - Willow Smith" in the background!

I'd have to say the super intendant of state in Indiana. Either him or the governor. They're basically forcing kids to learn advanced stuff a grade above their own and making graduation more difficult to accomplish. Oh and yeah, they're also lessening the funding to the arts, like drama and band.

Why is this a problem? Making graduation more difficult forces kids to buckle down for school, resulting in smarter kids. I can understand why one'd be annoyed by the funding to arts lessening, but it's better to cut down the finances of fun and unnecessary stuff like arts than something obligatory, like education.

A thing that grinds my gears is when you know you are right about something and the person whom you are have the debate with thinks there right and will not give in even though they are clearly wrong and you just can't get them to understand.
I know I should just walk away and forget it as I know im right and thats all that matters but I hate people trying to make out that im wrong about things I know im not.

Not necessarily something that grinds my gears but, the grammar nazi irony in this thread is astounding.
