"You know what really grinds my gears" - Peter Griffin

Below you'll find a list of things that, despite their insignificance, really get under our skin.

**Disclaimer: Our close friends and girlfriends have often committed these heinous acts, so please don't take offense. Heck, we're even guilty of a few of these sometimes.

Here's what really grinds our gears:

1) Status Updates, Away Messages and Profiles that include the following:

1a) Celebrating getting drunk like it's a national holiday. Newsflash: nearly every college kid in the country is drinking this weekend. No one sees your update and thinks, "wow, this kid is drinking 3 kegs from 8am til midnight, I wanna hang out with this d-bag".

1b) Girls that have dorky things like "we live for the nights we don't remember with friends we'll never forget."

1c) Guys that have things like "bro's before hoes" are equally upsetting.

1d) Anyone over the age of 12 that types things like: "yo dis b dat d00d that the b!tchez luv 2 mess wit".

1e) Listing the next week of your life as such: "Study, Test, Work, Working out, Back to study, Test Part 2, Drinking, Home to see my fam, Doctor's appointment, Zumba, Dinner with besties, Drinking again, Catching up on much needed sleep". Really? You're not coming back to the computer sometime between now and next millennium? Do everyone a favor, keep it to two events or less. If you go past that you end up with things like "gym, tan, laundry" - WHOOPS.

2a) Clubs that somehow decide that shredded trucker hats, dip-spit-stained jeans, and overalls are "appropriate attire", but fitted hats aren't allowed.

2b) In keeping with closet-racism: Black guys that secretly hate all white people based on past happenings. And white people that stereotype things like basketball, Jordans, and hip-hop as "black". If a white guy chewing a blade of grass says something ignorant to you or a black dude pisses you off, you can dislike that one dude. But please be nice to us and the other 200 million Americans that haven't met you yet.

3) When a skinny girl fishes for a compliment by saying she's "too fat to wear this", and when a girl that actually is too fat to wear that outfit, wears it.

4) Girls that use profanity.

5) Girls that incorrectly think they know more about sports than us. If you want to watch the game, cool. You can even say things like "Peyton Manning is a great QB". But if you decide to mimic Erin Andrews or Hannah Storm, you're watching the game somewhere else.

6) Sweeping blanket statements like: "She's always done that" or "He never went there".

7) The whole city of Pittsburgh.
