What really grinds your gears?

I would add to that by saying that the lurkers don't really get the full benefit due to the fact that aren't engaged in the forum discussions anyway. People who are actively engaged in the discussions are more likely to get help and get their questions answered than those who don't.



Now, what grinds my gears:

People who do not discipline or correct their children. Then by the time they become teenagers, they are running the household. They tell their parents to "F-off" and get away with it (amongst many other things) only for the parent to say, "He's just so out of control. I don't know what to do with him."

When they end up on a talk show saying, "I'm afraid of my out of control teenager" because they fear child protective services, that really grinds my gears.
