Taking this from Family Guy my girlfriend was over here for 2 weeks until she got the bad news her aunty finally passed away so she had to go home for the funeral being held on Tuesday we had a great time she met family and friends,got hooked on Farscape and visited more of the island. What grinds my gears is she phoned from home an hour ago to tell me the funeral is not on Tuesday but is on next week her uncle got his info wrong and she can't afford to come back over to resume her holiday not only that but her aunty didn't pass away when she was told. So what grinds your gears?

Adverts on TV !!!!!!!!

I stopped watching TV several years ago because of all the bloody adverts !

I found them relentless, aggressive and overly repetetive ......

"Sale now on, come to our showroom NOW ! " ...... or else ?

"Buy this ! Buy that ! " ...... No !

"Call this number NOW !" ...... Piss off !

"You cant afford to miss this .......!" .... How do you know what I can and cant afford ?

I dont need someone telling me what I should be wiping my arse with, or what I should be spending my money on ....

" 50% off all our sofas ! " .... I dont want one of your f*cking sofa's !

The more they "force" me to buy something, the more I boycot their particular product.

Im my opinion they can all f*ck off ! they can all just f*ck RIGHT off !

They can all just f*ck RIGHT OFF "in general" and take their sh*t products with them .... either that or they can STUFF IT UP THEIR ARSE !

Or better still they can give me their sh*t product for free, so I can force feed them it and then wait until they sh*t it out so they can see how sh*t it really is ! ...... Literally !

I would rather be tied to a chair and forced to eat my own lips ! rather than be bullied into consumerism by these corporate whores !

ho hum..........

I can relate to that, from studying in Edinburgh, never had to wait quite that long though.

drivers in the fast lane not wanting to go faster than drivers in the slow lane, I could list 100 driving misdemeanors that bug me.

yeah ads and people younger than yourself always tend to be annoying

the fact that match of the goddam day doesn't start at the same time every week

I'll be here till tomorrow on this post i I think about it ;-)

Where to begin? I can pick an argument out of nearly any news story on the box and what grinds my gears is people just accepting what's being shovelled out. Also I f*cking hate ad's too, if I want to buy something I will, if you push the issue you can get screwed. I ain't buying it. If you call me at tea time to sell me something you better have cast iron undies on or you'll get torn a new one. And I don't care. I also call it like I see it, which sometimes upsets the wife a little. But she's the same and its one reason I love her. Right or wrong there's no mistaking what she thinks.

I hate the f*cking gubmit thinking they know all the answers, and I f*cking hate it even more when they make rules and regulations that I have to pay for that will NEVER work. Why ban drugs? Its been going on for decades and there has been NIL result. Give it up, open the market up and let it go. I don't use anything more than good booze, but f*ck em all. Its my body, my business so f*ck off out of it. Oh, ad sell off all those useless departments, get rid of councils abolish State government and we will be halfway there. Stop handing back cash and calling it a gift. ITS MY f*cking TAX MONEY TO BEGIN WITH. Just don't take it and get rid of the useless department.

There, that's a much better start to my Monday ;) Coffee's kicking in now

My wife and I were 4 hours drive away from each other for the first 2 years of our relationship, Ironblood. We have been together 16 years now and still love her as much now (if not more) than I did then. Its hard but if its going to work it will. Good luck mate.

Mark :-D
