You know what "grinds my gears"

When someone drives your car and moves everything around and doesn't return it to the posistion that it was originally in. I got in my car this morning to go to work and everything was shoved forward. It almost put me in a bad mood. What grinds your gears when other people are in your car??

Yeah i dont like when my dad drives my car and does that either. Except he put the seat all the way back being that he is 6'2.
I also dont like when my dad goes on a canyon run in my car and wastes all my gas and by the time he gets back im on E haha.

nobody really drives my car besides me, but moving the seat would probably piss me off a bit.

i doesn't make me mad if someone moves the seat forward and adjust the rear view but when they get in and change all mirrors adjust the angle of the seat and leave it, that is irritating

What really grinds my gears was when I was working at the dealership and you'd see a note on a ticket not to move the seat, and you find the car and theres about 8 inches between the seatback and the wheel.

All that is annoying. At least its not like me and my friends used to do to each other, get in the car and turn everything on, heater, wipers, radio full blast, so when you turn the key it literally scares the crap outta ya!

i used to be like that... but when i drive other cars i dont move the seat back. at least we dont have electric sliding seats...thats a pain to readjust your original position.

While having to put everything back into place is annoying I'd prefer that annoyance to having someone crash my car because they didn't bother to adjust the mirrors.

when the passengers think they control the music...

especially if they are the type that listens to 30 seconds and then hits next track constantly.

if someone asks me if they can drive my car, they had better brace themselves for a bitch slap.

when my passenger has to reach out of their window and tap on my car to the beat of the music like my car is a f*cking drum set. that pisses me off, and then i judo chop them in the throat with my right hand.

The problem is, if your borrowing someone else's car once you move the mirrors around to your preference it's kind of hard to "reset" them, especially if they are much taller/smaller than you are..
