Things That Really Grind My Gears

[NickNels]

2. People who pull out to the left (or right) before they make a turn from the street.  In a parking lot i can understand, but you can\'t do that shit in traffic

the masshole creep?

HAHA!  It\'s not just Mass anymore, but speaking of which...

3. Driving in Boston.  Worst drivers, worst roads, always constructions, and way too many one way steets.  Navigating in Boston is horrible.  You can see where you want to go, but you just can\'t get there.

[peaches626]

the completely unnecessary addition of \'s to restaurant/bar names

"we\'re going to Miso\'s tonight"

no. you\'re fucking not, actually. because Miso\'s doesn\'t fucking exist! neither does Kumo\'s, or Bottega\'s, or Nikkita\'s, etc. :mad: :hair: :mad:

does this include something like "The Wolf\'s Den at Mohegan Sun Casino"?

I would like to open this up to NYC drivers.  It\'s a wonder that there aren\'t more pedestrian fatalities.

But to add more to the grinding:

- People that flush the toilet with their shoe and either miss or hit the seat on the way back and leave a rubber skid-mark on the seat itself.

 Is there any common pratice in the bathroom that you approve of?

Also, NYC, Boston, and all Western drivers don\'t hold a candle to middle-eastern drivers.

Carios traffic is so bad, that is it good. It is only predictable in that it is complete and utterlly lawless and unpredictable.

It really is an experince.

that a boy!

It\'s probably pretty lame to complain about the weather, since I choose to live in NH. But I\'m going to complain anyhow.

Woke up this morning at 5:00 with no heat, and it was -12 outside. Oil lines froze for the second time in 2 weeks. Apparently since I have an outdoor tank, I should be using kerosene in the winter. However, no one from the oil company, who has been delivering my oil here since I moved in years ago, has ever bothered to tell me this. How the hell was I supposed to know!?

Happily, Harper crawled under the covers while I was sleeping and kept me warm. I woke up with her curled up against my chest.

Here are my thoughts on bathroom:

1. If you have to piss, use a urinal.  If there\'s no urinal available, use a stall, but lift the seat.
2. If you\'ve come to piss and there\'s some at another urinal, make sure there\'s a one urinal gap (if possible)
3. If you\'re not friendly with the person in the bathroom, don\'t talk to them.
4. If you have to shit, make sure that you aim for the bowl.  If you\'re uncomfortable about sitting on the seat, use a seat cover (or two).  If you\'re not comfortable at that point, then using a public bathroom may not be for you.  
5. Make sure you flush after your finished, if your uncomfortable about pushing the buttom or pulling the lever with your hand, take some TP and use that as a buffer. And the most important one of all....
6. For God\'s sake, wash your hands before you leave the bathroom!

Get a different oil company. They are supposed to add the kerosene if you have an outdoor tank. At least that\'s how it\'s done around here. All you need is a couple gallons to do the trick.

he gave them to me. you know eric. he\'s having a hard time with them I think. I guess they\'d be good in the health care field where you\'d be concerned about germs. I set it up as a gag, usually I forget to use it and still use the handle. the other is still in the box.

I do like entreprenurship though (is that a word?).
