A whinger is someone who, instead of taking action to solve a problem, just blames others.
Someone who draws attention to a problem which is either ignored or simply not seen is not a whinger but is called one by the whingers

whinging is what you do when you're to lazy to do what you should. it's very popular here, and three other countries i have lived in. perhaps an international competition could be arranged, ozzies would have nothing to fear, always in contention.

Three dimensional thinking. There is forth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth, and lets not forget ninth dimensional existence, and beyond. In a mathematical world, lets hope that the man made equation is right. Evolution has one set speed, and thats where I,ll put my vote! I just hope you can understand. If not, everyone is just fighting a IQ bullcrapping fight, that one-one wins. It does not hurt anybody, Its just a thought.

love you all, and don't let anyone get in the way of life or thinking.

P/S Who said that they were right. Not ME

I'm ALL for people making others aware of objects of concern, but going all militant about junk mail is height of whinging.

Dear Stg,

Did you say the height of whinging was " going all militant about junk mail?"

AHA! That's because you haven't "walked in someone else's
shoes," yet ...

Sure, it may appear like a trivial problem - but my husband happens to have severe back problems. We live at the end of a court and cop every one else's junk mail on our front lawn every day, on a regular basis. Picking up this junk mail gets somewhat tedious - especially when it's not easy for you to bend over.

Even though I can see you smiling now, just wait until you have something that really and truly irritates you... And, your turn will come. (And don't say it already has). Gotcha!
