			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just an FYI: This isn&#8217;t for the faint of heart if you hate the word &#8220;bitch&#8221; or any other swear words. I mean, if that happens, you probably already closed the browser so you haven&#8217;t seen this part&#8230; Losers.</p>
<p>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&#8217;s usually at this stage where we call it &#8220;ranting&#8221; and indicate it by using <rant></rant> HTML tags. Because we are that cool.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve noticed that I&#8217;ve bitched a lot more&#8230; Ok, we&#8217;re switching over for now to &#8220;complaining.&#8221; Anyways, I&#8217;ve complained a lot more since winter has arrived. Perhaps it&#8217;s because the cold weather, the amount of school work that comes this time of year, or perhaps just the simple fact that I&#8217;m always bitchy (oh, there it is again!) minus Christmas and New Years (usually). And I&#8217;ll bitch about anything and everything. It&#8217;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&#8217;ll turn into the next serial killer or worse&#8230; Lindsay Lohan shooting up cocaine. (You should appreciate that, <a href="http://twitter.com/bjlayland">Brandon</a>)</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Anyways: My bitching = healthy. Others, not so much. They usually go something like &#8220;He&#8217;s such an asshole&#8221; or &#8220;I miss him&#8230; But he&#8217;s a prick that should die in the eternal depths of Hell&#8221; or &#8220;OMG!!!11!1! HE DUMPED ME!?!?!?! NOOOOO!!!!&#8221; (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&#8217;ll gone on and on for hours or days (seriously). And I&#8217;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&#8217;ing.</p>
<p>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. &#8220;Unsubscribe,&#8221; you say. &#8220;Ignore it,&#8221; you say. &#8220;Shut the hell up,&#8221; 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&#8217;re bitching about Verizon, AT&#038;T, Microsoft, or any mega company (including government sometimes), be my guest. Just keep it down some days. Please.</p>
<p>Now then, for more bitching, follow me on Twitter: <a href="http://twitter.com/zachflauaus">twitter.com/zachflauaus</a></p>
