What Grinds Your Gears

[donk.]

Deflate their tires.

It blows my mind that people like that cant put themselves in other peoples shoes that they are inconveniencing. Situation reversed they would lose their shit but if they do it, its ok.

That's exactly I would do. (Gotta make sure my horn works LOL).

At least pull over at a spot you aren't blocking other traffic (alley or something).

Do car guys not wave at each other anymore?

I dunno I was in a pretty chipper mood today. Drove the STi out to Langley to see an out of town friend. Drove past a bunch of nice cars (our kinds of cars) and did the little wave, nothing. Saw a bunch of nice subies (probably heading to the VSC meet) and nothing…

Later in the evening I drove the RS to pick up dinner in Richmond. Again, saw a bunch of nice cars, gave little waves or thumbs ups… nothing! Then one nice white ~mk7-8 gti waved back. Finally someone!

So do we all not do this anymore? We all busy mean-muggin on the streets

Championship white civic type r's don't wave lol

I usually wave. I find that euro's are more likely to wave at each other than jdm's

I waved to your buddy in the white silvia and he didn't wave back lol

I avoid making eye contact in general to avoid people trying to race me

This too. It happens way too often in the Type R lol.

I did glance directly at a WRB bugeye WRX today on 91. The driver and I locked eyes, instinctively, and simultaneously did a head nod. It was weird.

I'm at the Commodore Ballroom to see a concert, and it girnds my gears when people wear shirts from bands that aren't performing at the show.

Lol like going to a sporting event and someone wears a jersey for neither team

Super nitpick but able-bodied people on escalators walking on the left side, who stop or pause at the top because they can't time their step off the escalator without breaking their stride.

If your older or have balance problems, I understand but maybe they should be on the right side of the escalator where you don't need to walk.

I went offroading last night and drove past 5 fires on the way up. On the way back down, 3 still had embers and 1 was straight up flames with a log burning in the middle and a bunch of other wood sitting around it. We carry shovels and a lot of water but we went through all the water at the first one, my extinguisher at the second (with the flames), and spent ages with shovels at the third and forth because we were out of supplies. I know the risk is lower now but it's still ridiculous.

Also fuck people who burn pallets or toss glass into the fire. There's 50+ nails in every one of those stupid things. They need to start requiring a coating that stinks when it burns or putting them together without nails or something.

Travel insurance

I usually buy extra travel insurance when I go away, this year I decided to look into our included company travel insurance.
The benefit package is worded questionably, so I decided to call in, to verify what is actually covered

So far, over the last 4hrs of being on hold, and being transfered through 3, of the companies subdivisions, including 8 staff transfers, once again I am on hold for 35 minutes currently.

Incredible, absolutely incredible
