I will go first.

I hate how so many people act like every kind of art or media is now derivative because someone else out of billions of people and thousands of years had a somewhat similar idea.

People who modify their cars to be obnoxiously loud. Makes me wish they'd get sand in their engines and grind their gears down.

I have a neighbor right now that has an obnoxious exhaust on his ridiculous looking lifted truck. For some inexplicable reason he goes out almost every night at midnight and redlines the fucking motor for a minute or so. On New Years Eve he redlined the damned thing for over 5 minutes straight. It kept hitting the rev limiter and cutting off then turning back on. I was praying the thing would blow up. It's so damned obnoxious. I don't know what he's compensating for, but stop taking it out on the environment and sleeping children.

I used to live behind a gas station in a town where people loved to drive those cars...

I wish hell was real because there would be a special place there for the types of assholes that would roll up at two fucking AM with their subwoofers BLASTING shaking my windows and their stupid-ass exhaust trying to make their shitbox sound special.
