What really grinds my gears
So here is for my second installment of what really grinds my gears. Todays issue is sales people, not all of them, just the ones that try and force you into buying something. I guess it’s there job to try and sell you stuff but isn’t there a limit to it?
So today Chell and I go to WOW Sight and Sound to buy a new HDD, after looking at the 2.5″ portable and the 3.5″ external Hard Drives, the sales guy tries to sell us the 2.5″ portable, even though we’re after the bigger one (it will just sit on the desk, and was cheaper). He then again goes “so this is the one you want”, but wasn’t like a question, more like a statement.
We proceded to buy the 3.5″ external hard drive, paid for it and left. Chell’s now happy she has a 500GB hard drive as her old 320GB is dying (typical since it was bought from Joyce Mayne).

What really grinds my gears
Anyone that is a Family Guy fan would know the episode where Peter Griffin hosts a news segment called “What really grinds my gears”, and talks about things that annoys him. So I thought I would do the same, each day if I find something that annoys me I will post it.
Today’s issue that really grinds my gears is people that like to drive 80km/h in a 100km zone then SPEED UP to 100km/h when they reach a 80km zone. I had this happen to me on the way to work. It really annoys me why they can’t do the speed limit, then break the law!
Feel free to comment!
