With everything that woman has been through, she's still a hoot to be with, a positive person, and she's just happy, and great. She's told me about her struggles, and a couple times we've had those heart-to-heart moments about how her life can be hard. She does NOT complain about it, and I respect her a whole lot more than someone who would complain about a medical condition.

This. Can't say it better. :3

My life sucks because I don't have a job and never graduated from high school even if I was one of the top students at my last school for the 4 years I was there. Of course.. all of that is all mainly my fault and I can of curse change that.

But yeah I hate when people complain and whine for attention, I just complain to myself and never try to change my situation it seems much like dante in Clerks.. though he did complain to Randel often, and his boss. "I'm not even supposed to be here today!"

If someone does it over and over again I'll get annoyed. But some times "whining" is just how some people vent. I get just as annoyed about people complaining about people complaining. I mean it's like a never ending cycle of "whining". Hell I'm doing it now. To quote Pojo.

So... it's a thread complaining about people who complain? Is that like meta-complaining?

But anyway, I'm sure the vast majority of us could find something to complain about if we wanted. I think for some people it's just the whole emo teen deal where you think your life sucks because your parents told you you can't go out late with your friends tonight.

But, I can tolerate some whining from people who I know in person, and I like to think that I'm a good listener. But I have to admit that when people complain on the internet, like on this forum, it can get to be a bit much. Most of the time I don't read such threads as I rarely have anything nice to say afterward.

But you can change the way you look at it. Yes, it's scary; yes, it hurts; yes, it sucks. But it doesn't have to be what you base your whole life around. I'd read Cupcake's post about her friend who's had breast cancer twice.

You have a choice in everything, even if you feel you don't have a choice.

Olivia beat me to it. That's exactly what I wanted to say.

OKAY this thread is appropriate for this vent. So if you don't like it... well you'll probably piss and moan about how horrible your life is.

Anyways...
moving on to the important stuff...

It bothers me when people with assburgers use it as a crutch for EVERYTHING. okay so you have a personality disorder that mildly affects your daily life. BUT REALLY? Does it have to control everything you do? Is your life really that horrible because you're awkward at interacting with people? Yes I feel bad for people who are actually autistic and I would never think to criticize them.

But omg. If I hear one more person bitch and moan about how much their life sucks because they have aspburgers I swear to god I will slap them.

Really... you are who you make yourself. Even if you have that certain affliction, stop using it as a goddamn excuse to be a whiny bitch.

Mesmerale · 03-07-2009

I'm probably sympathetic about this because I do it a lot...

Hmm... I understand the hatred of hearing people bitch and moan, I feel it often enough...

I'm tempted to argue that I would be sort of okay with it if it were for the purpose of getting said "coddling" and such, but I know that isn't how I feel, I'm just having trouble wording it...

Okay, I think I've got it.

The way that I do it is different from the way that we're talking about, which is why I'm having trouble with the topic.

The way that we're talking about is a way that I despise and do not condone at all.
