Maybe it true that in reality, there's nothing really we can do about it or change it, hence the only way out is to whine and complain to get it off our chest.. well, end of the day, after doing so, it does make us feel alittle better.

If you are born in the village, i dont think you can complain being a peasant farmer..so stop whining and do something worthwhile...

and all those teens out there...go get some manners...and stop emo-ing. You ppl have it good nowadays...imagine the earlier generation having to survive without all these technologies..

Just face the reality...
yeah, i agree. just look at all the complaints here. many of them are just useless complaints.

yep.

i always whine and complain.
well i think its necessary.

its not only Singaporeans who do it; most humans do.

i think its a way people stating their personal views.
they whine and complain because something is not appropriate to them.

well, gotta agree that too much complaining may lead to annoyance.

but we're all human beings. ((:

The fact is everyone complains. But everyone's complaint intensity different. Some just nag nag nag awhile thats it. Some goes on and on for days before they let it rest. Some are lifetime complain eg taxi drivers. I think out of 10 drivers surely got 1-2 that will complain about government.
