What grinds your gears?

So what Really grinds your gears?
For me, It is when straight people act gay, just for showing off perposes. I like see them even kiss the same gender. Also when I loose Internet conection when I am playing online, example: I am trying to kill something and it is almost dead and the connection goes then when I log back in I am Either dead or the thing I have being trying kill is back to full heath which I have spent 1/2 hour trying to kill.
So what realy grinds your gears?

People who chew their nails.
People who highjack certain projects I am working on for a certain club (this just currently became a pet peeve of mine).
People who lack compassion for other people's situation and make insensitive comments just to be a jackass (also a recent problem).

-My biggest gear-grinder has to be the fact that when a double standard favors women, it's called chivalry, but when it favors men, it's called sexism. It especially grinds my gears that it's considered ok for a women to hit a man, but not for a man to hit a women, even in self-defense. That's not equality, people; sexism that favors women is still sexism.

-I also can't stand the unfortunately wide-spread idea that one can't live a fulfilling or worth-while life without having children, that having children is the final purpose of our life. How about no; I hate the little brats and am not going to spend any of my time or money on one.

-Speaking of which, children really grind my gears. They are loud, selfish, greedy, stupid, rude, inconsiderate, and unreasonable, everything I hate in other people. The fact that they are smaller and younger than a normal person does not change my perception of them at all. And there is little in the world that can make me angry as easily as a child's crying.

-A more subtle gear-grinder for me is when someone assumes that I hold a certain stereotype or prejudice because I am a member of a group that typically holds that stereotype or prejudice. My sister seems quite fond of assuming me to be a male chauvinist simply because I am a man. She may be right, but what she calls chauvinism, I call the highest form of feminism, for I simply hold women to the exact same standards I hold men to. That's, after all, what they want, right? (That was partially sarcastic.)

-For some reason, people who misuse the word ironic really tick me off. I don't know why it's such a big deal to me, but it really isn't that complicated of a concept, and we have other words to describe other kinds of coincidences; let's not corrupt "ironic" when we don't have to.

-The font Comic Sans MS. That's the one that looks like this. I just can't take anything seriously when it's written in that font. It was never meant to used as wide-spread-ly as it is, and its creator himself regrets that it has become so widely used.
