Imagine if there was a place where people could complain about stuff 24/7/365.
That would be a real nightmare.
Thank goodness we have this local newspaper to act as a stress valve at least 1 day a year.

Just saw an ad on Fark for discount psychiatric for military personnel. Do you suppose that includes retirees? Because Festivus is close to pushing me over the edge.

People who buy bagels on Festivus are the real problem.

Doesn't count as a win unless you were consciously trying to poop.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that what local Facebook groups are for?

The comments will read like wannabe writers submitting bits for the Seinfeld reboot.

The normalizing of complaints really gets on my nerves. Everyone thinks they're the only one to get cut off in traffic, or smash into a moose that cut you off in traffic.

Now I want to complain about moose. Thing is, I know they won't listen to me. Which brings me to another complaint... Where was I? I think it had to do with all the complaining, and how much of it there is. This has gone on too far.

Can we at least agree to disagree? If not, can we disagree to disagree? I, for one, am quite content with the amount of complaining going on. You, on the other hand seem determined to bolster grievances, which I find grievous in and of itself.

Enough, I say.

I had to explain to someone who'd never seen Seinfeld that it wasn't a stripper pole.

How the Tampa Bay Tribune doesn't turn this into a Deathsantis rant, I don't know.
