I'm sorry but your last point is just stupid. According to your logic, we shouldn't complain about anything EVER just because someone we don't even know has it worse. That's pretty retarded.

Go be a failed psychologist somewhere else.

Actually, that logic is perfectly sound on some level. Complaining only creates counter-productive patterns of thought that lead you to conclusions and ultimately actions based on negative emotions - fear, anger, etc. That way leads to the dark side, and being thrown from a high tower with lightning bolts shooting wildly from your body.

Nice post, Deceptionist. I would quibble over a lot of it but that is your intent, I'm sure - to provoke discussion. Are you the receptionist at the mental gates of hell, deceiving us all into signing the permanent guest book?

So you´re opening a thread without a reason?

How interesting. Someone is getting passed my mental ploys. +1

Another +1. Receptionist is part of the reason why I chose this name.

Interesting name...

Same goes for you. Doesn't it? :)

My name has more to it than what meets the eye at the first instance.

Interesting.

Cannot agree more.

You didn't answer my question: Why does there have to be a reason?

What is reason?

What is the reason to have a reason?

Is reason even reason?

Why must there be a reason? Because Spysong192 doesn't understand or agree with the one that clearly exists. There are 10 pages of discussion already so far, Spysong. I would posit that the reason was to share one's thoughts with one's peers to provoke discussion, if others felt inclined to do so. Reason enough for me, anyway.

Why you´re dodging in first instance?
