I like this. I try to complain minimally, but I've shared this with some friends and we're going to do it together. I want to take my minimal complaining down to zero. It's just a bad habit that I think has no benefit.
I try not to complain because who cares? All it does it make me dwell on whatever is upsetting me, and no one around you wants to hear it, even if they're courteous and listen. If I'm having a bad day, why would I make my friend's day worse by having to listen to me vent about it? Who wants to swipe through Facebook and read about my neighbor's crying baby? Instead I'll put on some headphones and post a link to whichever album I'm listening to in order to cover it up.
