This doesn't work in practice.

The apartment I'm renting no longer has running water? I won't complain to my landlord to get it fixed, I'll just be grateful that I was able to experience water.

The tradesperson I paid to complete a job left the work unfinished? I won't complain to them/their company and just be grateful I was able to hire someone to take my money.

I've been sexually harassed? I won't complain to management/authorities, I'll show gratitude that I received attention.

Bestie….those “complaints” r necessary. This post is about habitually pessimistic ppl that always find something wrong or to complain about. How ppl r quick to find a complaint but those same ppl have a hard time finding a positive outlook and things to be grateful for. Hope this helps

That's...not the take I get at all "bestie". It's "Take what you're given and be thankful, peasant".

And yet you're putting yourself out there, starting arguments with people who don't match your naive, blind viewpoint.

well you’re objectively wrong then. this is clearly about habitual complainers. that doesn’t mean people shouldn’t have a right to be dissatisfied with their circumstances, but the point is you’re only doing a disservice to yourself.

there’s also no need to be snarky

Oh, there absolutely is a need to be snarky when people have such absolutely horrific takes.

spoken like a habitual complainer

mf could live in a $8,000,000 mansion with 10 employee wait staff catering to your every need and you’d still look out the window and complain about not owning the neighbor’s $12,000,000 mansion

the OP’s post is targeted at you

I’m not telling you that you cannot complain, ever. Some things are worth complaining about.

But practicing gratitude is very important for living a happy and fulfilled life. If you search for something to complain about, you’re going to find it, no matter what. There’s always something that could be improved, some quality that isn’t being met. But there’s also always something to be grateful for; something that you take for granted that is wonderful to have.

We all have these fucking issues bro.

Some of us can work though it with confidence, gratitude, and kindness, while others don’t. Simple as that.
