Bitching: The All-American Past-time

Just an FYI: This isn’t for the faint of heart if you hate the word “bitch” or any other swear words. I mean, if that happens, you probably already closed the browser so you haven’t seen this part… Losers.

Bitching is fun. It lets us release stress on others (which is always good) and also lets us make a point. Usually my bitching is a combination of both, but others bitch about one topic or the other. It’s usually at this stage where we call it “ranting” and indicate it by using HTML tags. Because we are that cool.

I’ve noticed that I’ve bitched a lot more… Ok, we’re switching over for now to “complaining.” Anyways, I’ve complained a lot more since winter has arrived. Perhaps it’s because the cold weather, the amount of school work that comes this time of year, or perhaps just the simple fact that I’m always bitchy (oh, there it is again!) minus Christmas and New Years (usually). And I’ll bitch about anything and everything. It’s like something is programmed into my head to find a venting place to get out my stress which is good, right? I mean, bottled up feelings and you’ll turn into the next serial killer or worse… Lindsay Lohan shooting up cocaine. (You should appreciate that, Brandon)

My stress is usually vented into the webisphere through Twitter or (on rare occasions) a blog post where I can just explode all my thoughts into it. I should probably start doing videos because that would be cool. Well, sort of. Because then I would have to clean up, comb my hair, move all the soda out of the way, clean my room, and a whole bunch of unnecessary stuff that text can totally do without.

Anyways: My bitching = healthy. Others, not so much. They usually go something like “He’s such an asshole” or “I miss him… But he’s a prick that should die in the eternal depths of Hell” or “OMG!!!11!1! HE DUMPED ME!?!?!?! NOOOOO!!!!” (Not trying to stereotype the female bitching, guys do a lot of a bitching too [obviously]). I know when to stop. Others, once again, not so much. They’ll gone on and on for hours or days (seriously). And I’m not talking just on Twitter or blog posts, some I know will talk to me either on IM, email, DM, or some other form of -M’ing.

So what am I saying? DROP IT FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! Nobody wants to hear you constantly complain about things for the rest of their life. “Unsubscribe,” you say. “Ignore it,” you say. “Shut the hell up,” you say. You know what I say? Shut up and listen. Drop it, make amends, and move onto your life. If you must bitch about life or other personal problems, do it in moderation. If you’re bitching about Verizon, AT&T, Microsoft, or any mega company (including government sometimes), be my guest. Just keep it down some days. Please.
