You're in a restaurant.
Or maybe on a plane.
Or heck, maybe just out at a store or in a park.

And you hear that incessant whine. The 4 year old who wants something and isn't getting his way.

Maybe you're like me and you have kids of your own.
Maybe you pride yourself on not letting crying kids ruin your picnic. So when the frazzled mom gives you an apologetic look, you tell her "Kids cry. Don't worry about it."

But crying isn't the same as whining.
Not by a log shot.

Crying becomes white noise after a while.
Whining sends shivers through your bones. Like fingernails down a chalkboard.

And if you're trapped with that whining? You want to rip off your ears. Or maybe rip off the kids throat.

And your general rules of parenting quickly get tossed out the window. You know WANT that parent to give the brat whatever it is they want. You don't care if they become spoiled. You don't care if they use the whine technique in the future. Because all you want is for the whining to stop.
NOW!


No.
This isn't the wrong forum.

At some level, I welcome an impeachment investigation.
Anything to stop that persistent whine emanating from the left.

IDK.....I suppose there are rare occasions when I get there. But, honestly, I usually wish (sometimes out loud) that the parent would take the brat outside and give him the belt.

You were on the correct track, then you veered to the right track, the presidential whining is far worse.

Worse than any single opposing whine, yes.
But the cumulative effect is staggering.

For 8 years I had to listen to whining about a tan suit, or dijon mustard, or the first lady's garden, or family vacations (funny how that turned out).... This whining is at least related to government, so quit your whining.

I can’t believe I’m saying this. Vicki is right!

Your political opinions
Your whining
Your religious beliefs

Anything you ever felt convicted about

None of this matters
Throw it all out the window

From this point forward...


vicki will tell you!!!🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

It's not about policy.

And the whining that existed 8 years ago could be turned off by logging out of CBid.

I understand how you don't see today's whine.
It's similar to why I can't feel the earth spinning.

You're kidding right? You think the whining was only on cbid?

The vacations....? It was nonstop. Don't pretend this was some tiny whining in a corner of the world.

I didn't say "policy" I said "government". As in we want a functioning government. You know, like one with a president who can speak in complete sentences, doesn't literally state falsehoods in every sentence of a speech.... One who follows the laws of our country and doesn't falsely claim some special "article 2" exemption.... that sort of stuff.

I once had to sit one row up and across the aisle in a 737 just ahead of a kid who was screaming and crying before we even left the gate. I was pleasantly surprised that the gate agent had quietly given us a free upgrade to First Class. I'd never ridden FC before, and I was enjoying the first flight I've had as an adult where I actually had enough room (I'm 6'3"). The kid started screaming before we even started moving, and didn't stop until we landed. The entire. Damned. Flight. Worst, that side of my headphones (I don't fly without tunes) died right then and there. I turned them around to have the working side face the kid, but I couldn't drown out the little demon, not even with Iron Maiden. Call it Hell in a comfortable handbasket.

The difference is, this all actually happened, the flight attendants stood by and did nothing to attempt to help (must be Trump supporters), and at no time was the kid in danger of crashing the plane and ruining our form of government. He also didn't claim everything he did was a record, didn't try to glorify himself, and didn't make me wish he'd never been born. OK, I lied on that last point.

Then what was your point?

You claimed everyone's whining about trump... I pointed out that at least they are whining about government related stuff, not tan suits and dijon mustard.... and you tell me it's "not about policy"...

so? It's also not about cucumbers.... so take that!?

should we make a list of things it's NOT about?

I'm a little uncomfortable with a cucumber comparison...would a round vegetable work the same?

I know you like to think you're saying something smart, and that we simply don't get it because we're dumb.

But literally no one said the word "policy" in the entire thread before you said "it's not about policy"....

So I'll do you one better. It's also not about rutabagas.

Elect a real president, the left will stop complaining if an adult capable of governing our nation is running the show. Though I will give you that Trump has improved living wages, for porn actresses. Now could you stop your constant whining about people who view the world differently than you do? Or write a book, Fairy Tails.

I didn't recall anyone saying "government" either.
I was narrowing it down.

I heard it wasn't about lifejackets either.

But it is about a handy from a soft, tiny hand....
