Hmm... That's funny -- I didn't know that was something to complain about

I’ve pretty much categorized everything I hate into four categories: foods, sports teams, people who I can’t stand for some reasons I don’t need to get into and people who complain about shit they don’t need to complain about.

I’ve been living in Bakersfield and the amount of complaining about shit that they don’t need to be complaining about has been unprecedented. I mean, it’s shit that I’d be happy to have in my life. You know, things like the ability to stay with their parents and not pay rent in college? What the fuck do you have to complain about? You have two fucking parents willing to help you out, help you save up money while you’re in college getting educated free of charge. Not only that, but you get to go home to home-cooked meals. That shit is a fucking luxury in college. Get over yourself if you can’t appreciate that shit.

On top of all of that, about 90 percent of the people complaining about having to live with their parents have both of their parents at home. In 2009, having both of your parents by the time you’re college aged is a fucking commodity you better be happy you have. I’d give almost anything to be able to have both of my parents around – together. Fuck you and don’t complain to me about shit if you’re not paying for shit outside of a fucking phone bill and get to go home to both of your damn parents after you get out of class. That shit is fucking absurd.

I can’t fathom why anyone would ever not want to be home just because their parents weren’t there. I know not everyone is going to have a great relationship with their parents, but you don’t ever know how long you’re going to have the ability to physically see your parents. Hell, I know people who don’t even have parents.

Oh, and one more thing, I know the economy is really fucked up, but get the hell over it. As far as I’m concerned, the economy has been fucked up for the last 22 years. My family has never really had shit, but I feel like I’ve lived a pretty amazing life thus far. If you can’t go on that cruise to Mexico or you can’t get that new Scion that you’ve been wanting “since forever,” get the fuck over it and get some funny friends. I promise you’ll get over it.

I just wish people learned how to appreciate shit. I know I have little to nothing by American standards, but I feel like, in world so consumed with commercialism that I have a lot. I just think, if I really don’t have anything to complain about (which I do considering the complaints I hear), than you don’t have anything to complain about. Suck it up or leave me alone. I’m just not listening to that bullshit anymore.
