Do People Really Need to ……. - Zinjanthropos - Jan 11, 2024
……have something to complain about? Am I complaining by asking that question? IDK.
Watching the news and a lot of it is in regard to something being complained about. There’s extremes however, everything from war to a neighbor’s cat. Some complainants are in groups and others go solo. Haven’t seen groups carrying placards & signs for a cat problem, although if enough people are pissed off at the cat then it could be a community effort to try and bring attention to others.
Is there anything easier to complain about than government(s), not just yours? IMHO…Health is right up there a close second. Weather, traffic, law, cost of living, all good complaint topics. Mix in a little of the world’s problems while you’re at it. Coffee house or restaurant good places to listen to or start a complaint conversation.
I think it’s in our blood to squawk about something bothering us. Don’t think I’ve ever gone through a day without complaining. Why do we do it…..

Everything needs its opposite (a mix). Talking about how great everything is would eventually become boring, and vice versa. (Homogeneity is monotonous.)

I guess you really should know what you’re complaining about before opening your mouth. Some good laughs here…

I ran through a list of things I'd like to complain about and by the end of it I'd pretty much therapy'd myself out. Apart from cats. I'm a fan of cat protection. I bought a very nice table from their charity shop the other day. I like the idea that any cat in my garden should be held in protective custody until the owner agrees to pay a boarding fee (absolutely not a ransom).
