Fave-and-runs on DeviantART. It's frustrating whenever someone favorites your work and doesn't leave a comment. I had this happen to me yesterday.

Lamp posts in the street!
Stupid b******s!
That's what really grinds my gears.
Not that I actually have gears, as I am not a diesel, or some sort of other vehicle, or some other thing of sorts which contains gears, but that's quite obvious you stupid child.

You know what really grinds my gears? Youtube Fanboys that b*tch and whine about every single f*cking change HIT makes to Thomas and then end up buying the DVDs anyway. And the amount of people that find any random pic and slaps rare in the title for more views and those under aged users. I don't know what it is but for some reason I can't stand them. And that is what grinds my gears. WOW! That felt good.

I found the clip first. On page 42. Please Give me the credit. Statements like these. Yeah. Really sad that statements like these actually exist. People need to stop treating the internet like it's a GD popularity contest.

You know grinds my gears?
First Steve Tasker, he is a former football palyer who does commercials for a local car dealer and he can't say vehicle. It is a simply easily word to pronounce it is "veh-i-cle" not ve-hic-le" Now you know where the "hic" in hick comes from.
Next Born Again Christains, they think they're opinions are so godd**ned special. "Gay marriage should be banned because it offends my religious beliefs" so what? Do you seriously expect the world to do things just to make you happy? Another thing Evolution is wrong because some book says it is? Anyone can write a book, I can write a book that says the sky is green. So you're going to throw-out scientific research backed by thousands of professionals because some book contradicts it, when all you have to do is go outside at look at some rocks! See, it just doesn't add up.
Next the city of Buffalo, NY. The people are sick of being made fun of by the rest of the continent. They complain about how the Bills and Sabres suck so much. Give up on the sports teams they only make the city look worse. Also get up off your butts and fix the buildings in the city. It looks like the Soviets got Buffalo. Stop watching the Sabres loose again, turn of the TV, throw away the Chicken Wings (or else you will die of a Heart-Attack at 50) and stop being such a joke. Honestly, I'm from Buffalo, but if you ask I'm from Toronto. Toronto is nearby (Why do we need the Sabres when we have the Leafs?), it is a better city and the hockey team actually managed to win the Stanley Cup, not once but 14 times! Honestly when Channel 2 ticks me off, I turn the antenna and watch CBC.
Texting, why? The reason the telephone was invented was so we didn't have to write things out. Texting defeats the who purpose of the phone. And that "txt-spk" is so stupid, words need vowels and stop combing them with numbers, unless your going to use Roman Numberals or write in Arabic.
I could continue, esp. with HiT entertainment (and I don't buy anything involving them), but I think this is enough, and that what's grinds my gears. Back to you Tom.

You know what really grinds my gears?
Being a freshmen in High School, we sent in the courses we wanted to take before the year began. So I was wating for September, I came into the school and I was placed in the college prep Algerbra class, however, on just the second day, the staff realized I had an IEP and they went out of their way to keep me out of any classes along those lines(I wasn't even allowed to take a language, and instead I got placed in Gym where I was bullied to no end by upper classmen who like to pick on people half their size, then talk big like they defeated the terrorists) solely because of my IEP, and that alone. Then they kicked me into the basic algerbra class, and funny enough, I was actually recomended to take the college prep classes. But no, god fobid that IEP student can actually succeed. And so I've been taking my new classes this semester, and I have seen kids who get 20% on quizzes and projects who don't care, but they aren't placed in the basic classes. So basically, the cosmos are out of whack. The people who need to be in the basic classes are in the mainstream classes, but the IEP students need to be placed in the basic classes. Heaven help me if they do this to me next year!
And that's what grinds my gears!

Teen shows that try to copy Disney. What they do not seem to get is that real people, i. e. people with sufficient brains, do not like the teen shows provided by Disney. The tern 'teen show' would imply that it is a show aimed at teens, but i's not, it's a show that focuses on teens, but these 'teens' do not even have proper strops or Swear (or even say d a m n for that matter) like actual teens, because they are indeed aimed at the age group of 1-12. The only 'teen show' that I have known to enjoy is Drake and Josh. Basically every other teen show that I can think of is pathetic.
Another thing is the Conservative party. They seem to think that the Labour Party is responsible for the recession that began in 2008 and lasted another 1 and a half years. Ok, mister Tory, if that's right, why was there also recession in other parts of the world. Not only that, but if David Cameron DOES manage to break in to number 10, another recession is going to take place.
And that's what REEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLYYYYYYY Grinds my gears.

I can't stand all the F40PH love. Absolutely passionless shape with an engine note that would put Jeremy Clarkson to sleep if he were driving a Koenigsegg right beside it. Thus, I have drawn what I think of it. I think it was inspired by a garden shed. I won't post the reason it REALLY ticks me off, but it does.

One of the moderators at 1chan looooves them. To a point where it's not even funny. And your picture is epic too. :3

Do you know what really Grinds my gears?
Two things:
First off: TV Forum.
More particularly, the mock gallery section, where people can post their own TV idents, news titles and endcaps. unfortunately, the mocks section on TV forum is unofficially strict- although there is nowhere on the forum that states it has to be the case, people on TV Forum only like idents if they're of a very high picture quality.
If you, say, posted a mock ident video with an overall medium quality, (say 480p) they tend to give it a low rating, regardless on whether they thought the concept was good or not. As for the comments posted on the not-quite-perfect mocks, they don't bother to give constructive criticism, they just think that they can get away with posting smart-arse comments, almost literally making it a 'mock' gallery.
Usually the not-quite-perfect mocks have decent concepts and are interesting to watch. The picture perfect ones, however, generally show little creativity, and tend to be the current BBC news titles, perhaps with the words 'Look North' slightly repositioned to the left, or the Current BBC2 ident roster with the Greeny blue box on the left relaced with the BBC logo at the bottom, and some moron rates these higher than the ones which are more creative.
After no success with a couple of mock idents, I Joined ATVLand Forums to show some of my mocks there, and people liked them.
(Also, I posted a BBC2 mock on my 'rexeljetsmocks' account in May, I showed it to TVForum and they gave it a few smart-arse comments, only to find out that someone on youtube posted that it "Could be real".)
Second off: The amount of rubbish on the Pingu pages on Wikipedia.
As far as Pingu's importance in the wikiproject titles, it has 3 titles; Wikiproject BBC, Wikiproject Television, and Wikiproject Switzerland.
Pingu has a low importance on Wikiproject BBC, and no rating of importance on the other two. This means there aren't many people clearing up after vandals on the Pingu pages.
For example:
*a few months ago, it was stated that in the last episode, Pingu, His Grandad and Robby died, the latter due to a heart attack.
*I've had to clean up pages that state that the first episodes of Pingu were produced during 2000 and 2001, which aren't true.
*There is still pieces of information in the episode guide that are both difficult to understand and insignificant:
"Pingu sounded like he said "You!" when he realized he was tricked by Robby. To me, nope. It sounded like a cow. In the current version, it sounded more realistic."
And these things (especially the 1st one) is what really grinds my gears.

I've been getting REALLY pissed off with anyone who thinks THEIR side of the political spectrum is better than the other guys. Personally, I don't see anything wrong with socalized healthcare, but something very, VERY wrong with socialized manufacturing and transportation. Yet, I'm not supposed to play both sides of the coin.
I like saving fuel, but having fun at the same time. That's why I have a small car with a manual transmission - Nissan 200SX (Sentra Coupe). I don't need a soulless penalty box like the Prius or Insight, nor do I need a guzzler like the loud pickups I see almost everyday, to make a statement. I like the fact that I can go around a 15 mi/h offramp at 30 mi/h. seems to make a point.
Same way with politics. I can't stand the extreme leftists. Those who clamor for further government controls on all aspects of life. I can't stand those on the Right, either, who want to leave millions of people behind, and get cozy with the major corporations. I want to sit in the middle, downshift to third, cock the rear wheel up, and leave them all behind.
but they all keep complaining about each other through the radio, the internet, the protests...ugh. ALL OF YOU. I DON'T CARE. SHUT UP.
Also, what happened to the three-second rule? Why is it i have to dive way deep into a corner in order to keep people from tailgating me?

I have a list of stuff that grinds my gears right here, taken from my Gaia page.
Let me make this simple and easy to follow.
1. Gaia does not in any way equal Myspace. 2. Nor are their profiles the same. 3. Given the above, stop spamming those retarded little squares that say "Bite me" or "I cut myself to see my tears run pink" or s***. Seriously people. 4. Grayscale is not deep or emotional. Period. 5. Grayscale with one thing in color is not deep or emotional. Period. 6. Fake blood is available by the gallon, so don't expect me to believe those wrist slashes are real. If they were, I would be rejoicing. 7. Rainbows are not unique or original. 8. Not even combined with lip shots, fake fangs, flowers, fingernails, toenails, roofing nails, etc. 9. ESPECIALLY not combined with eyes. 10. If you could pull off grayscale or rainbows, you wouldn't need to. 11. Dog tags belong on retrievers or jarheads, not your girlfriend. Even if she is both. 12. Angle shots do not make you look slimmer or more attractive. All they do is give us vertigo, and vomit is hard to clean out of keyboards. 13. There is nothing significantly magical or supernatural about the following numbers. 7 and 13. 14. There is something magical about 69 and 420, but for a TOTALLY different reason. 15. Don't dye your hair black. It never helps. 16. Fingernails are perfectly fine with or without polish. They are not fine covered in cheap Wal-Mart cosmetic crude oil. 17. More eyeliner does not equal more acceptance. 18. Marijuana isn't cool. You'll understand that when you end up with lung cancer. 19. Getting drunk isn't cool. You'll understand that when you end up with liver disease. 20. This is the internet. Don't bare your body for acceptance, you get accepted by the wrong people. 21. Common sense helps. A lot.
