Weather Whiners

It rains here. It rains from November to July. It's Normal, it's Natural, it's Nice.

I know that people who move here love to play the game of complaining about the weather. It's childish and appalling, but lots of small minded people do it, and they even go out of their way to try to outdo each other, to be MORE pathetic and negative than the other guy. 'I bet I can be more morose than YOU about something that's not that bad and impossible to change!'

There is nothing more pathetic than someone complaining about the rain in Seattle. Are you just trying to PROVE how shallow you are? I try to be understanding, i try hard to ignore the stupidity and negativity, but i actually stiffed a waiter last night because he wouldn't stop whining about the weather! "I can't get out of bed." What a wanker.

GET OVER IT.

We often have cool or wet weather and clouds. It's lovely. We live here. We're lucky it's not Los Angeles.

The weather does NOT make you depressed. Despite how much you like the gloomy image of you that pretend fact presents, it is just an excuse. Yeah, i know it's the popular thing to say, and wow, you've found a doctor who told you so. They're wrong and you got ripped off. It's an excuse. If anything, you are depressed because you decide to put lots of energy into hating the weather, spend lots of time on it, or maybe you refuse to go outside unless it feels like a desert, and so you rot indoors, but probably you just like the excuse.

I have an idea: find something to hate that you CAN change! The weather is EASY to accept and even enjoy.

If the kid inside of you can't enjoy the weather, and the adult you are supposed to be can't accept it, then please move back to LA; otherwise just SHUT UP!
