Default NFR's Official W&W Vent Thread!

So.....after you spend all day making your car look like a minor solar flare, what infuriates you?

Here is my list.....

1)People closing my door using the glass as a handle.
2)People with jeans leaning on the car (those little metal stubs scratch!)
3)When Im driving and I see an unavoidable puddle.
4)When people close the door by putting their palm on it, rather than grabbing the handle.
5)Buttmunch in front of me on the highway using his windshield washer nozzles....that stuff eats wax!
6)Birds. If it was up to me, Id kill them all.
7)People bringing in dirt with their shoes, when my interior is cleaner than a hospital.
8)People complaining that I dont let them eat in my car.
9)Girls' hair! It gets all over the interior!
10)People giving me sh!t for taking too long to clean my car.

So, I ask you my fellow wackos, what grinds your gears?

I can add to that!

11) People that suddenly dump their coffee or soda out the window in front of you. This is a biggee that just happened to me a few days ago. Driving behind a big ol' SUV and suddenly without warning the guy sticks his arm out the window and turns his coffee cup upside down.
12) Road construction...I almost never fail to discover some new chewed up section of road, when my car is spotless.
12a) Freshly filled potholes, with all the little tar pebbles all over the place.
13) Bugs! Hate em.... Every summer when I drive home near dusk my car gets splattered with them.
14) Ditto on the windshield washers from cars in front of me...this one deserves a second mention
15) Girls wearing glitter...either on their clothes or lotion. Glitter is a pia to get rid of.

That's what GRINDS my gears!

Brother in law!! Doesn't matter if car is clean or dirty. He has a talent for setting a box on the hood/rear deck lid and then sliding it when he picks it up. Wife will not let me choke him.

I live in Alabama, I've been behind something with hay coming off of it twice.
I totally hate those 18 wheelers hauling chickens.
I agree with glitter.
If you sit a cup on my car, you die. It's a known fact.
I hate tire wet sling.

i live in the bay area, its just that a certain highway (hwy37) is filled with grass and hay and shit... every year at a certain time they harvest the hay and haul it off elsewhere... sometimes i get stuck behind one of those hay trucks... and its a bitch... i dont live out in the middle of nowhere! i swear i dont!
