You Know What Grinds My Gears?

The Batlord · 03-16-2013, 12:31 PM

Dude, I've forgotten how to sleep on my stomach. I can't figure out where to put my arm. In the end one of my arms always has to end up under my pillow. And since my pillows are shitty and thin my head always ends up making my arm hurt. I tried changing positions for like an hour before I finally managed to fall asleep. I've always slept on my stomach. I don't know what the fuck is happening, but it's been happening for the last few days, and it makes me dread going to sleep. And no, I can't sleep on my back or my side.

Perhaps getting a different pillow or stack up more than one pillow? It may just be the pressure on your arms. I find that happens when sleeping on my stomach sometimes.

Is there a reason why you can't sleep on your back/side?

How about music forums which don't allow you to ask questions about music? Posted on here earlier seeking peoples opinions on how music makes them feel and they've all been deleted - I'm not selling anything, or promoting anything, I'm just asking a question - wtf is wrong with that?!

Did you post any links? If you read the rules they're not allowed until you've become an established member.

How about passive aggressive newbies who bitch about everything without first reading the rules? That really grinds my gears.

Fitness snobbery/people who think bodybuilding is bad. I know someone who does crossfit and has some kind of snobbery toward bodybuilding. Why would it be wrong to build muscle but then if someone wants to lose fat, that's completely fine? Is it bad for a woman to lose fat purely for vanity? What's if she's overweight? Why do these people only ever think of the extreme end of the bodybuilding spectrum i.e. the steroid addicted nasty bastard with a shit diet?

Why do people look down on it so much? It's no more or less 'right' than any other sport or form of training, it's entirely down to goal, the individual and how much you enjoy it. Fucking boils my piss. Yeah there are those arrogant, self-obsessed wankers in the gym who watch you lift 50kg then go and put 50 on then another 5 to show you that their manhood is that bit girthier than yours but that's because they are cunts. Has fuck all to do with 'bodybuilding'.

I'll tell you what grinds my gears: the woman who lives across the street from me. I live on a very narrow city street with parking only on one side and even that is a tight fit. This morning I came out to find her big honkin' SUV jammed right up against my bumper. It was annoying, but made even more annoying when she decided to come outside and lecture me about how I was parked. Basically her issue was that she feels entitled to the spot directly in front of her house and I'm being "inconsiderate" by not leaving a massive amount of space for her to park her SUV in. Let me be clear here: no one owns a particular section of curb on my street, you park where you can find a spot. Only her and one other lazy asshat on my block think they own a section of street.

This is just the latest thing with her too. She's also the same person who threw a huge party about five feet from my front door last summer with a DJ so loud that I couldn't even hear the TV on the third floor of my house and didn't even bother giving a courtesy invite to me and my wife. And she habitually borrows money from one of my other neighbors and never pays him back. And she has ongoing domestic drama with her on again/off again husband playing out for the whole neighborhood on regular basis. And she has unbelievably loud conversations on her stoop late at night. In short, she's a winner.

It is the people with the mega vehicles that seem to always double and triple park. They feel entitled to everything on the road. My guess it thats the same reason they bought the vehicle in the first place. Of coarse I dont mean all of them but a significant portion.

You know what's grinding my gears right now? I'm sitting in the library at school right now and there is a couple in the back corner sucking face like there's no tomorrow and there's a group of obnoxious girls in the other corner loudly talking about their favourite sex positions. And I'm in the middle, trying to get work done.
