You Know What Really Grinds My Gears?

Chronic complainers.

Now, I know this may come off as hypocritical, after all, I am about to complain about people who complain, but hear me out.

I believe it's healthy to complain once and a while, and we all know a good vent is definitely necessary sometimes. I'm talking about the people who ALWAYS complain about EVERYTHING.

See, there's really 3 types of people:
The Optimist: sees the glass half full.
The Pessimist: sees the glass half empty.
The Chronic Complainer: sees a glass that is slightly chipped holding water that isn't cold enough, probably because its tap water when I asked for bottled water and wait! There's a smudge the rim too, which means the glass wasn't cleaned properly and now I'll probably end up with some kind of virus and -

STOP. Please, just stop. 

As I'm sure most of you internet savvy readers are aware, there's actually a website (probably more than one) designed specifically for this last type of person:

www.whitewhine.com 

Anyway, I just want you frequent whiners to STOP IT! I know it's difficult, but please keep your moaning and groaning to a minimum - I'm sorry that you had to wait in line for 20 minutes at Starbucks and that your incredibly advanced and expensive smartphone is taking FOREVER to load the internet, but I don't see this as something that should ruin your day. 

You're alive, you're not starving or homeless or whoring yourself out for money (well, at least I hope you aren't) so stop complaining about little things that won't even matter in a day (or hour). Go watch Hoarders or Intervention or one of those other A&E shows that make you feel better about your life and stop complaining. :)
