I laugh at people who complain about conditions, the stuff they come up with is unbelieveable.

"The line dried up on me, I put the ball here it skids, I put the ball here it jumps" (while throwing harder to get the ball out more after moving instead of moving)

Another guy who jerks his head to the side on release and very seldom puts the ball in the same spot also complains about conditions...LOL

I laugh at tools like guys you who care that much about what others say and/or do on the lanes.

I could careless what people do but I don't want to hear people complain about conditions the whole night while I'm making adjustments and making it happen. Ask Chris Barnes, that's his pet peeve, condition complainers. The people who scuff their shoes into the lane after missing a shot and not sticking are good too.

The straight bowler, who believes he was robbed of a strike... never has bothered to wonder why people bother to hook ball into pocket... Then complains about lane conditions.. always have a quiet giggle to myself..

There are so many. they cant understand why they get splits. I have a teamate who bowls dead straight, never carries very well, will not try and hook, all I recommend to them is to stand quite right on approach and try to get some angle into pocket.. What do u do?? They wont change after 10-20 yrs of bowling 160...

over the weekend i bowled a 6 game tournament on what was essentially a 42' nationals shot. after the tournament a lefty from another team's status on facebook was "can someone teach me how to bowl on the burn. unbelievable" i saw him bowling during game 5 and 6 he was still going up 5 with a full swing just like he was doing all day. i was just thinking to myself, learn how to play something other than up 5 and you might score on the burn.

those who complain about carry when they shoot 7 or those who get maybe 3 in a row with lucky shots then cry when they leave a 10 pin on their next shot.

Or folks who complain about the amount of oil (or lack thereof every league night and continue to average 140. God help you if you dare to suggest that they move or otherwise adjust something.

People slamming people for complaining about lane conditions bothers me especially when you could help explain to them about the lane conditions.  I'm a relatively inexperienced bowler (almost 3 years throwing a hook) and I do realize when I try to go up the 5-10 board and come across the head pin that I have to move inside or throw a weaker ball.  But not having the experience to totally understand what to do or how to find the line is going to frustrate you and make you complain.  Instead of fussing about them, help the inexperienced bowler.  Give them some knowledge instead of just complaining.  And dont just be like, it's you not the lane/ball.  The beginning of this season, I didnt understand that till some one helped me.  Now I've been having more success with an inside line.

people who are only moderately talented complaining that all the other bowlers around them have no talent. i realize how i rank next to the other bowlers in my area and respect the talent of those who are more talented. i always want to scream at them that if you were so !@#$ talented why don't you go pro....
