For me its more when people overuse "literally" and "apparently", that's what really grinds my gears (not literally, of course).

They normally aren't as smart as they think they are. People that are genuinely smart but that have no people skills also grind my gears. You'd think geniuses would realise that being well rounded is important and learn some people skills so that they can mingle with the mediocrity that they are surrounded by in a way that creates less friction. some people are just socially awkward penguins. it's not that easy to all of a sudden become good at dealing with people

Those are literally my two favourite filler words. But apparently it upsets some people.

People that wear their pants that are way to big and sag down to their knees.

Self entitled assholes who think they run shit up and people who smother their beliefs into peoples faces and get pissed off when you ask them to stop, cause your killing their "individuality and self-righteous beliefs"
|
People that whine about balance when they're in low leagues. I'm guilty for this sometimes though, so I guess I grind my own gears?
|
people who have to rage at a game ... its just a game - sometimes the rage gets OTT ... that or the amount of uncalled flaming its so unnecessary and pointless
|
People who flame players/casters for very small issues and blow it out of proportion.

This. It just gets on your nerves and makes me want to deliver a punch to their heads.

Kids who try to make you throw the first punch in a fight at school. People who smoke and drink because they think it makes them 'cooler'. People who feel obligated to donate all their old clothes to Goodwill instead of just throwing them away; soo many times I've caught my mother going through the trash after I just threw away some clothes. Ricer Cars with over sized mufflers that makes them sound like shit.

FROM: MR. Paul Hollway
A government offical here wants to transfer the sum of ($17.5million).
The Republic of Botswana is formerly a British colony situated in Southern Africa, nestled between South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe and Zambia. The capital of Botswana is Gaborone.
the country is democratically ruled, boasts a growing economy and a stable political environment. Botswana has some of Africa's last great wildernesses including the famous Okavango Swamps and the Kalahari Desert. Botswana is the largest exporter of gemstone diamonds in the world. The prompting of my mail came after much thought on the country most suitable to invest some personal funds acquired from the federal ministry of finance here which i have decided to invest Before we proceed I need your assurance that funds in question can be invested without my being implicated as the original owner for security reasons due to my political position and our personality will be fully protected yours sincerely. MR. Paul Hollway

Your argument is invalid because you are the type of person that grinds my gears

What grinds my gears is when buying something a saleslady/salesman will always say that the shirt/pants/shoes etc looks good on me which I know is false because they just want something to be sold.

That's pretty sad. In the end I don't care, I'm a fan of some electronic music mostly dubstep but wow that was kind of pathetic.
I'm a death metal guitarist though who listens to mostly tech death so I'm kind of an elitist I guess. :[
I play the guitar myself and I don't see what's so easy about the video. Have you ever tried it? It's actually pretty difficult. You want to see "unimpressive"? Look at most drummers... 
I mean seriously, what kind of monkey CAN'T hit something with a stick? (sarcasm)

Injustice. Especially done by law enforcement and the legal system. The False Rape Society and the Innocence Project provides disgusting examples of grave injustice that simply enrages me.
It's really fucking disgusting how biased and amateur the police and the courts can be. I mean, convictions based on ZERO evidence, no, not negligible, but ZERO evidence, relying only on uncorroborated testimonies by the accuser? What? Prosecution can block evidence that would clearly exonerate the defendant? WHAT??? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?
And not just in the United States, unfortunately. That shit spills to us sooner or later.
