The grinds my gears thread

Is that supposed to be referring to what I said? I wasn't complaining about technology; more about the way some people use/abuse it.

It's kind of self centered to assume people are posting that stuff for your benefit.

[Providence A's]

I didn't assume anything. I asked if his post was in response to mine.

Unless you were talking about my original post, which would have been more apparent had that post been quoted. If so, then it is you that made an assumption. I never said people posted anything for me.

Facebook joke and "meme" pages that redirect you to a third party site to see the picture instead of just uploading it directly to the FB page.

Immediate "unlike" when I see that shit.

Even as a 90s kid i'm starting to grow tired of the "only 90s kids will get it..." stuff. It's starting to come off a bit pretentious.

The nitwits in the Twitter world screaming "How DARE Marc Anthony be allowed to sing the NA at the MLB All-Star game! ". If you were born in NYC you ARE an American in the melting pot that is the United States of America.... you fucktards!

It's funny how unknown photoshop is to the world.

I honestly don't know why I still have Facebook. The only time I ever get on it is when I'm bored at work on break. All it is is meme's, overly used quotes, and pictures of stupid shit.

I use it solely to annoy people for fantasy type league things. It's amazingly useful for the GM League when someone needs to draft.

Despite all the crap on it it still keeps me in touch with friends and acquaintances living in other parts of the country, or even world in some cases.

That and arguing sports in Facebook groups.

[Mach]

I've done that, the arguing sports in groups. It had to be the biggest waste of time ever. So much stupid. It really gets to the point it's not worth having a discussion because of how asinine the other opinion is.

[HollywoodLeo]

You're definitely right about that, but I can be a glutton for punishment in internet conversation at times

[Mach]

in my youth I definitely was, I'm far too cranky and tired these days though.

Just found out a fantasy football keeper league that I've been very active in for 2 straight years set a deadlne to renew teams in mid July and anounced this exclusively via a Facebook group for the league without messaging GMs (or at least not me). So, when I inevitably didn't see the announcement because I'm not paying much attention to fantasy football in mid-fucking July they gave my team away.

Two years down the drain because people are thinking about fantasy football in the dead heat of the baseball season.

Now that grinds my gears.

league manager fail

[HollywoodLeo]

It grinds my gears that people still fall for this kind of shit
