Crash and Bang Winger

Blacked out cars...black paint, black rims, and tinted tail lights. There's no character to the car. Just looks like a black block rolling down the road. I even saw one car with tinted headlights. I have no idea what the thought process is behind that idea.

That was all the rage 10 years ago, just like spoilers were cool 5 years before that. Or when "Stance" was the big thing 5 years ago. A "Murdered out" car definitely is not so cool these days though

Use of the statement "Doing the same thing again and again expecting different results. That's the definition of insanity!"
Hate that in all its forms.

Thought of another car related one. I hate riding in a car with the windows not fully closed at all times. I can't stand the wind and noise with the windows open. Sometimes I have to just grit my teeth and bear it in other people's cars, but in my car they stay closed when the vehicle is in motion. No exceptions.

Watching sports on TV, especially ones that I really like. I'd way rather be in the action myself and it really gets me riled up. Watching ski movies and clips is the biggest source of angst. I liken it to watching porn, it's way funner doing it for real.
As I've gotten older it's been easier to handle and I wouldn't say it's as big of an issue with team sports like hockey.

I came across a beater car in LA at a red light once thinking it had those stickers. Just as I was about to look over and give the big eye roll, I locked eyes with the 4 young guys in the car in obvious gang apparel and I realized the stickers weren't stickers at all.
Quickly turned around and prayed for the light to change.

Pro tip: always drive in the right lane in gang territory. You can always make a right turn or drive up on the sidewalk to make a quicker getaway.

And they're a giant red flag for cops, driving them around is begging to get profiled and questioned. Just dumb all around, how can I look suspicious while spending too much money... hmmm

Getting drunk/being around drunk people. It's the worst. I'd rather be with my dog.

Your dog prefers to drink with me. Seriously.
Dogs love beer.

My dog once drank a whole Corona by accident. He seemed OK.
Also once licked up a whole grinder full of keef. He fell asleep shortly after.

Motivational and inspirational quotes and posters. I feel like my LinkedIn wall is slowly degenerating into a crowd of Dr. Phil watching "professionals" who soon will be getting dupped by ridiculous over-the-phone scams and door-to-door salesmen.
Seriously, if you post or like one of these I now think less of you. It's like finding out someone you generally respected is a huge, jacket wearing, NASCAR fan...I mean, there is nothing wrong with that, i guess but NASCAR...really?

Leather car seats. Especially the cheap fake-leather junk you get in a lot of cars these days.
I'd rather have some sweet cloth seats any day.
