People that put sugar in their tea- YOU RUIN TEA LIKE THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111one!!
 
You know what really grinds my gears? When you can't find the droids that you're looking for.
 
Yup, the missus always leaves coffee in the sugar pot :mad: she also uses my 'tea-spoon' to stir her coffee and leaves it all covered with congealed coffee, despite the fact that we have loads of other small spoons... I use this particular one because it is of a slightly different size to the others and means I always get the perfect amount of sugar in my tea. Hehe sounds mad when I write it down lol.

Her leaving the top off the toothpaste and the tube lying in the sink near the plug-hole also really gets up my nose too.
 
Nerds who squeal and squabble in a well known computer store.

"Oh wow! The new Logitechs! No! I saw it first! IM NOT HAVING THE DISPLAY MODEL!!!"

It makes me want to run a lawnmower over their face.

It doesn't even seem to register to the bloke that does it here. He just dips in the spoon, leaves a load of tea in the sugar that in turn makes a load of brown lumps and then has the nerve to tell ME that I must be a pain in the **** to live with :eek:

These are simple rules of life. He also wipes up a splash of milk off the side with a grotty jeycloth and then doesn't rinse it or register he just handled a dirty cloth. Just walks off with his cup of tea.

People who pee in the hallway where they live and grafitti their own buildings. I don't get this :confused: :confused: :confused: Where my G/father lives it stinks of pee in the communal hallways and the steps leading up to the flats. And it's vandalised and grafitti'd. I just don't get it. These people have to live there!!!

Oh and the bloke who straightens the spoons out in the kitchen here also annoys me a bit but at least I know who it is. I'm going to bring in a file and file the stem down so it breaks off in his tea. That'll teach him!
 
The quality of coffee in most rip off coffee joints. I can't stand starbucks or costa coffee. Both use tiny amounts of cheap beans and charge you about a fiver. Their espressos are weaker than instant coffee!

The frappicinos are nice in starbucks, but still, I want a coffee I should get a coffee, not a mug of water.

People who cant find reverse!!!

That grinds mine and their gears !!
Actually it's nothing to do with not finding the gear, I do it occasionly and it's because the car is still moving very slightly forward.

Buy a couple of spoons and take them into work and leave one in each !!1

Solution!!!

For the idiots you work with you could buy coloured ones, brown for coffee and white for sugar !!!
