Three things:
- People who think they’re better than everyone else and flaunt it to the world.
- Movies that mess up the topic they’re doing (Clash of the Titans remake anyone?)
- People saying I’m too old for cartoons like Pixar. I am not too old!
Three things:
Totally! There’s no age limits for cartoons! (Unless you’re 5 and want to watch South Park)
What grinds my gears is the fact that Day & Night lost the Best Animated Short Oscar to some film based on a picture book called The Lost Thing that no one’s probably heard of. I’m not saying the film is trash and didn’t deserve the Oscar, I’m just annoyed since Day & Night was a very creative piece of work, and Pixar haven’t won the Best Animated Short Oscar since 2000 when For The Birds was released. On the bright side, at least Toy Story 3 won an Oscar.
You know what grinds my gears? When I see people on the internet drawing my favorite characters as inhumanly obese balloons. Trust me, it happens. And it can’t be ignored either, while it’s all IN YOUR FACE the whole time.
Now if they would be so kind to put a mature filter on it, but nooo! Dx
You know what grinds my gears? When you need to be at work by 8, and it’s 7.40, the bus is already late as it is and the driver parks and goes out for a cigarette which lasts seemingly forever whilst your tapping your clock. I’m all for breaks but not whilst your driving, dude!
Okay-I agree with the balloon thing. That’s disturbing…
You know what really grinds Sander Cohen’s gears?
Doubters…
Doubters?
What grinds my gears is dishonesty, immorality, and sickness.
In Bioshock, there is an artist and a composer named Sander Cohen, who went lunny on the adam infused around the city. You meet him in Fort Frolic, which he has overall control over. You can find plenty of audio diaries of him and his strong dislike of ‘doubters’, and while your doing his bidding, he gets a paranoia attack and curses out against doubters, sending his splicers (people who’ve gotten spliced up by the adam) to attack you. so, what really grinds Sander Cohen’s gears is doubters. I’m not sure what they doubt, but it could be just anything that he believes in.
You know what grinds Andrew Ryan’s Gears?
Parasites.
20 year olds who text while driving, and then stop with no warning when they’ve been driving at 70 miles per hour.
You know what really grinds Peter Griffin’s gears?
America.
people who only go to a movie because of the short film that will play before the movie. or people who pay for the movie but only will see the short.
Unless it is really a crappy movie.
This doesn’t grind my gears, it just confuses me. Vegetarians who don’t eat meat, but will eat fish. Fish and livestock/game all are living things with a soul, I don’t understand why one is okkay to eat and the other is not.
I see what you mean. BTW, just curious, are you a vegetarian, or is that just something you noticed?
I get annoyed when someone starts a debate with me, and then when I respond, they just drop out. Don’t bring it up if you don’t want my opinion…
It grinds my gears that I am sick while on vacation. I hate being sick especially while on vacation.
Oh good heavens no! I could never give up meat, in fact I raised pigs and steers who were eventually turned into meat!
Another thing aboug vegetariansim. Even if you don’t eat meat, you use animal by-products every day. Such as pills and medicines? They’re made from the fats and bones of cattle.
There are different forms of vegetraian though e-j-e by definition. My own sister is vegetarian (though she doesn’t eat fish or any meat), but really what you are referring to are technically pescatarians. There’s even a form where they only eat chicken as a meat product and nothing else for meat! (Though the name escapes me). I don’t think of them as real vegetarians though, and the chicken thing is especially odd considering the fact in livestock they’re the ones most likely to be kept badly. So… yeah. I think the ‘fish’ thing comes down to the idea of them not being as intelligent, but apparently some forms of sea life such as the cuttlefish are pretty intelligent and still eaten so…
I think the thing with pills and all (if that’s true) is that it all depends. I think if pills are what’s necessary for the person to live and they’re not opposed to medical tests on animals then eh. Because technically you don’t need other animal products to survive. You have to be a lot more careful about nutrition though and you can’t just jump in though because there are certain things you’re missing out on (even with supplements), but you won’t literally die without it or necessarily suffer mass detoriation of health (as long as you’re careful) as might happen without pills depending on the situation. But say if someone from PETA uses medicine of that nature (even on the basis of survival) they’re hypocritical and shouldn’t work for such a horrible organisation at all. Because they’re opposed to the use of animals for humans and beingsalongside humans (even as PETS in the long-term) completely. It depends on the person but if they know and acknowledge that the pills come from animals in some form (testing for instance at least) for survival then it’s… okay for them. But if they’re like PETA or something on that… then uh no. Either they should suck it up and deal with the consequences of no pills or not using those specifc pills or they should leave and not donate to such organisations. Because it’s utterly hypocritical otherwise if they actually know and still continue anyway in that case.
But in the case of survival and all that I wouldn’t begrudge them unless they’re you know, like PETA. In that case the gloves are off because not only to I disagree with many of their stances they’re also hypocrites, so I can’t even respect them in my own weird way. I mean I understand and even pity them in a way, it’s hard after all I mean this could be life and death, but still they should leave that sort of organisation then at the very least. There’s always that option and just joining a saner organistaion concerned with actual animal welfare rather than PETA or organisations like it.
The attitude: “It’s only moral if -I- do it!” really grinds MY gears and unfortunatly happens in many political stances some even more comntroversial than the whole animal rights organisations.
My mum and my sister are vegetarians, which I completly respect. They do eat fish…though, although my mum may stop.
