How do you feel about that quote? My Uncle Alan used to say that, and I find myself living that way more and more (although complaining comes much easier to me now - I used to just keep it all to myself, but the filter is practically gone).

I have more to say, but I need to get away from the computer.

i personally feel like everyone complains to an extent but are not tolerant of hearing others complaints, i find it annoying, because i always let others vent to me me with no judgement, i should have the same treatment, everyone needs to vent every now and then.

I think he was getting at complaining not really getting people anywhere, and that you shouldn't have to explain yourself to anyone (or most people - the authorities, your spouse, etc, would be an exception at certain times).

Aquaguy has a point. If you receive bad service and don't complain, there will be no improvement etc. That's just an eg.
