What's something that grinds your gears?

What really REALLY grinds my gears is when people think they're right in an argument when they're not. They are adamant that they are correct and even when all the evidence is stacked against them, they still think they are correct. I mean why can't people be decent and just own up to being wrong. PATHETIC!

Another thing that grinds my gears is when people constantly go out of their way and try to annoy me just so they get a reaction. And then annoy me even more when I get aggravated! Especially if I'm already in a pissy mood. Sorry *****es but catch me in the wrong mood and I will tear you apart limb from limb!

Pardon my french but I had to get that out of me.
 
It's okay to dislike a character even for something really minor, but it pisses me off when people tell developers to change their characters when said developer could have put a lot of thought into the characters they created, for an example, removing Bayonettas sexual beauty would hurt the personality they were going for with the characters design and attitude.

I also really hate Tumblr/SJW- views being pandered in games in any shape or form, even if it's very slight. Most of the Borderlands games have some pandering due to the trash sjw writer and it drives me nuts. Usually the pandering is in the form of dialog where a male character is being told off by a female character for acting unrealistically immature. But outside of that it's also notable that more often than not the bad guy, the immature meanie in borderlands is male and the good person is female. It's insanely predictable.
For the most part BL handles sexualities well though, Mr. Hammerlock is gay and it's very rarely mention as anything special, but for the love of god can Spriggs shut the hell up about her being a lesbian.

-people who really like to blab the fk out, esp those who keep on repeating what they say or story..it's soooo annoying. i get it okay? you like philosophy and Shakespeare, now shut up

-folks who overuse the word "bae". "omg us baes!!"
-ppl standing in the middle of the damn hallway or aisle and chatting away like no tomorrow. why??????? or those standing in front of the doorway blocking it or walking slowly so those behind have less time getting out of the darn building

I'd just like to say, since we don't allow it in the What's Bothering You thread, please don't come here to express your annoyances about TBT members, either.
 
When people put "Lmao" or "lol" in all their posts even though there is no joke or something to laugh about, it's really annoying.

Donald Trump & his supporters, people who are racist, people who make anti-homosexual comments and trolls...oh and last but not least butthurt idiots on social media.

the reason i and anyone else put those at the end of the post is to add emotion (i dont really know how to say/explain it)

but anyway, it can be hard to see the tone or overall feel someones trying to show via text

for example just typing "Ok." seems cold, almost as if you were upset but "ok lol" seems alot better

THIS. Also when people are really stubborn during trades and when they don't seem to realize that I actually have a life outside this website. And it gets on my nerves when people spam and complain about getting in trouble. Also when people are ignorant and won't listen to other people just because they have a different opinion. Good luck in this world, buddy.

when there's a social/racial/economic issue and people not related to the problem who have no foundation or even basic education on it think they they're experts on it and think that they have a valid opinion that should be taken into consideration by the people related to the problem. or when an oppressor tries to say how the oppressed should take/react to their oppression.
