riverbirch1967 one question you were a soldier in the invasion of panama tapeworms that range I would like to have with you I contasto in estube in panama inavasion ye followed your comments
I agree that we as humans all whine. The Aussies call it whinging. Aussies always accuse the British (Pommeys)of being whiners (whingers), but their incessant complaining about the British amounts to whinning too! LOL. We all do it, but we also seem to like to accuse others of doing it too. It's hilarious.
I gotta learn to speak Aussie one day, there are so many cool phrases. And it IS hilarious how we all do this. And then point. LOL! Human behavior is fascinating.
That is for true, Henrik. We do whine and belly-ache. Everyone on earth. Some have more of a right than us, when they have less than we do in all things. But it is still whining.
we really dont have a reason to whine, but look at it this way the more you have the more you want, its not our fault we are the greatest country on the fucking planet.. some countrys shit over a hole in the ground, if we had to do that we would be some pissed off mother@#$%#$%$@ lol so if you got it you got it what can i say...
We are fortunate about the restroom issue you mention, indeed. And so many things, we are so fortunate. And yet we do want more and more. I'm all for happiness and appreciation of goods/services. We need to shut up! We have indoor toilets!
This is true. I grew up in Central America and kept hearing about donations in the US to send video games. Um... ?? Maybe a bike or shoes or, I don't know, medicine? The kids they were trying to help did not have electricity and any batteries would be foolish waste for the family.
I whine about Wal Mart all the time for the same reason as you!!! I love your cap!! I have one I wear too, when I whine :P...lol...I LOVE THIS VID RIVER AND I LOVE YOU TOO!!
Back in the good ole days we did things for ourselfs and did not need anyone for nothing.I moved to charleston SC.And at wal marts down here i see not to many put there buggies up.Thats lazy
LOL or leave them in the middle of the isle itself. The books (Firefox or Foxfire, I can never recall) which tell about the "old" ways of surviving are fascinating for just what you said: in the good ole days we did things for ourselves.
The whiners,liars,murderers,hypocrites,warmongers...are not the average Americans,it is the entire Bush administration and all of their followers. McShame is just another Bush. If we were whiners(which we ARE NOT),we would have plenty of DAMN GOOD REASONS TO WHINE! Ugh..just thinking about Gramm makes my blood boil. It isnt just Gramm..that is the attitude of the entire GOP and their supporters. NO MORE GOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's hard for me to speak specifically about U.S politics, Meth, coming from Australia, but in general I disagree with you. Not because i'm pro Bush but because you are putting people into one basket and slapping a label on them. So called whiners come from every political and social spectrum there is.
One could say that your comment is a whine and my reply is too lol. Put simply, people from wealthy nations whine because they expect too much. Enough is not good enough. The people who should be whining are those from the poor developing nations but they seem to get on with life with a smile and little fuss. That's because they don't expect anything. We in the West are pretty spoiled, man.
That's not to say things don't need fixing but often the whiners in society complain about things that aren't even broken. In Australia a whiner or whinger is also known as a blue nosed wowser. They whine because they want you to be as miserable as they are. It's an art.
Meth, Wasn't it a member of the GOP side who said it? Why would he say it about his own side? Why do you feel they are whiners? Can you give me some examples? (not arguing, just asking)
We are not whiners, we are survivors and hard working Americans! I loved hearing Newt Gingrich tell Sean Hannity that "If your customer comes in and complains to you it is not good to say to the customer quit whining because then they get to go to a new store". That "new store" is the Democratic Party and he knows it. I'm looking for a new store and I'm going to put the old one out of business! -Jim
Jim, thank you for commenting. What was the GOP meaning about whining? About gas prices and the war, or about a multitude of things? Also, do you think he wishes he could take the comment back?
My sister works in a store and always complains about people on food stamps buying expensive food while we who work buy the cheapest food to stretch our money
I had to sign up for food stamps a few years ago, basically begging because my husband lost his job, we did not waste one penny on expensive stuff and the minute he got a job we got off of it,
Oh, hun, I hear the whining all the time. By the way, there are No video games in my house. And another thing! ;) There used to be a beer brewery in Wyoming called Black Dog. Wanna know what their logo was? No Whiners! I wonder if they're still in business... ::toddles off to the web::
I believe that people who whine have heard their parents whine. I believe that some people have raised a generation of whiners. I believe that jealousy is the root of some of the whining. I personally am so excited to see someone better themselves! It causes me to believe that there is also hope for me. It's the whiners against the non-whiners. I get sick of whiners in short order. If you are a whiner, what are you doing to change your situation.
I heard someone call in to a talk radio show the other day who was struggling financially and the talk show asked them if they had a second job? The caller said no and the talk show host asked them why not? What are you doing to dig out of whatever situation you are in? Dead silence. It's much easier to whine! See what I'm saying. Most ppl want someone else to "save" them from their own dilemma's!
I was taught to survive, whatever that takes, whatever that means! I was never allowed to whine or announce that I was bored. Hope that helps! As for people who want be polite and get out of the way, I simply say in a very loud voice, excuse me! Or if they bump into me I tell them, well, excuse me. They get the message. Hope that helps! hmarty :)
Learning from parents is an integral part, isn't it? Like you, I was told to survive. "Suck it up" and be independent. That is what our forefathers did.
now THAT! is MY KINDA Vlog... I don't know or care who said we are whiners.. I totally agree, people seem to have this sense of entitlement and they have forgotten how to just deal with their OWN Crap. I guess it's easier to blame others. Shrug! People, go figure!
People in the United States of America have ALWAYS been whiner's. Have you heard your congressman speak? You've heard the beggar's in our midst ask for more & more hand outs ... from healthcare, welfare, to unionized pensioned jobs.
We the people have cars, A/C, multiple TV's, cable, gadgets up the wazoo, internet, organic food, designer lifestyles and cumulative credit cards. But the one thing we can't buy or acquire without our independent spirit is discipline
I have NO tolerance for beggers, none whatsoever. Anyone who "milks the system" is useless and a drain on the rest of us. Your last line about independent spirits is very revealing in truth.
Like any population there is a percentage of whiners. Most aren't. That aside, the politician in question, who brought us legislation to enable Enron (his wife was on the board) and the current credit crisis loopholes and allow unrestrained futures trading, who made millions off of the suffering of others, should be whining himself from a prison cell. Gas is 3-4x what it was 8 years ago, the ripple effect is spreading throughout the economy, and we're supposed to take it like sheep? Hush n' Pay?
The Enron situation was a nightmare that never should have happened, I agree. Do you think that we, not being sheep is what he meant? The Hush n' Pay? He is saying we should hush and be sheep?
Guys like him and their ilk (which I have to listen to all day at work) are basically saying "shut up and take it" or work three jobs, live on a shoestring, while they rake in even more millions. There's a element of fairless that has been taken away from this country. Work hard, follow the rules, get screwed.
*screwed up face* Ok ok, you want answers? I read the article in which Phil (whiner)Gramm said you were a nation of whiners. Believe me, you aren't. You, like the other great new world nation on earth ~..AUSTRALIA..~ are basically filled with optimistic can do ppl, BUT, like us, you are your own worst critics. If you want whiners, look no further than Europe lol (ducks citizenX9328g's left hook)
Thx for the sip, whine girl, but haven't you got any Amaretto??? *whine*
It's only problematic when ALL you do in life is whine,as in,blame others for your misfortunes,assume a victim mentality and not bother trying to be proactive in your own life and fix whatever is bugging you
