You know what really Grinds My Gears?
Pushy Websites. Not particularly the ones who want you to sign up for things, and add you on their email list...which is in fact annoying. Today i am talking about every websites obsession with making you their homepage! Now i know for them that would be great, because every time you open your web browser they would have free advertising and they can show you information without you even opening their site. Anytime you need to get on the internet, you have to go through their page...but honestly, whatever happened to getting a little Yahoo news every time i get on the internet. Now thats information. The point is...i dont want to put anything else as my homepage other than my default...that extra click onto facebook wont stress out my day because i had to move my mouse a couple inches. Now there is nothing wrong with setting facebook or myspace on your homepage, but it really grinds my gears when websites like facebook are way too pushy. If i want you as my homepage...I'll let you know.

I completely agree! And it's really irritating to have to constantly be clicking "no" to making a site your homepage. I like having google set as my homepage and I don't want another site taking that place.
