Though I'm not a big fan, my friends and I kinda took this idea from Family Guy. Here's how it's done:
-Every post starts with "You know what really grinds my gears?" Followed by the topic at which you will rant at.
-You must explain why the topic grinds your gears as adequately as you feel is necessary. Sometimes this will be done with long ranting paragraphs, and sometimes, it can be as simple as stating the topic as though it were self-explanatory.
-There is no limit to what your topic can be about, and there are no restrictions to the number of times you can post.
Alright ladies and gentlemen, let the gear grinding begin!

You know what really grinds my gears? People who leave their carts sitting in the middle of the parking lot. I mean seriously, the cart returns already take up enough spaces that I don't need the leftover carts of some lazy jackass cluttering any more spaces. And it's not like the cart returns are in the middle of nowhere. They're conveniently spaced so that one is in immediate walking distance of wherever you parked. You've presumably walked further from your car to the store, what's a few extra feet. And putting random carts that aren't in the cart return is not the same thing as putting them in the cart return. Hell, putting them near the cart return is not the same thing as putting them in the cart return. You know what's pretty much exactly like putting them in the cart return? PUTTING THEM IN THE CART RETURN! Not putting them in the cart return and just letting them sit in a random space means I have three options. I can a) get out and move the cart for you (but I'm not your mother; I'm not here to clean up after you). b) I can move on to find another space. Or c).....I can ram that ********. And you know what, I think that's what I might start doing. If I rack up enough incidents by ramming carts into other people's cars...maybe someone will start doing something about it!

Alright, now to be serious.
You know what really grinds my gears?
Parents who don't know how to handle young kids. Specifically, in church and at baseball games. Lets take this one at a time.
I go to church so I can listen to what the priest has to say (rather, read off his sheet [I'll rant about that some other time]), get my crouton of christ, and be on my way. What gets in the way of that? Little kids. Now sure, toddlers reading aloud is noisy, and I'm okay with that. However, I don't know what possesses some parents in thinking that bringing an infant into the worship space as opposed to the crying room. I mean, its called a crying room for a reason. For ******** crying.
On to baseball; Minnesota has the nice new Target Field. At one particular game, I was sitting on Homerun Porch with my family. It was 90 degrees and I felt like I was baking. There was a family that had a newborn, a ******** NEWBORN, up on Homerun Porch. WHY?!? If I can't stand the heat, how in the hell is that baby going to?!?
I swear, we need to sterilize idiots so they don't reproduce.

You know what really grinds my gears? People on both sides of the "is wrestling real/fake" debate. (I'm going to post something about this on the front forum, so take a gander there)
To those who say "dude, that s**t's fake", we know. So are movies and television. If you're going to say that, you're not allowed to watch any other televised program, not even the news as much of journalistic media is full of half-truths and spin. In fact, you can't read books either, not even history books, since they only tell one side of the story, so they're not accurate. You can only stick to math books and scientific texts. Also, you can't listen to music ever again, since all songs are made up. Seriously, if you don't want to do something because it's fake, you can't do anything...including talking to people...cause people are the fakest thing in existence.
To those who say "it's not fake...it's staged" or anything like that...please, for the love of the God I don't believe in...shut the ******** up. You sound like an idiot and deserve to be mocked by the "dude, you know that s**t's fake, right" people. It's fake...not real...just like movies and TV (and everything I mentioned above). Deal with it, and move on.

"You know what really grinds my gears?" Not having a ******** job while all the politicians have safe secure jobs. We need to fire them all and replace them with broke people since they would know how to run things better.

You know what really grinds my gears? The Invisibility Achievement.
It's not that I think it can't be done (cause I'll do it...sweet ********' Jesus, I'll do it!), and it's not that it is probably the hardest one to achieve...It's that it has to be done in the Chatterbox...the a*****e of gaia. Granted, it would really easy to do this in other forums (particularly the PW), but it would also be nice to avoid the shitstorm that is the CB.
