dare 1,103 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Just wondering would you lot say people enjoy having something to moan about? My dad cycles to work as his cycled his whole life and doesnt drive. If its pissing down hell get a bus, then he will come home and spend an hour moaning that it took an hour n half to get home. Ignore him in the hope hell shut up and hell find a way to bring it up again. Could be the weather forecast, or a program coming on and hell drop "bloody hell is that the time"...and go off again. Here is why i dont get his way of thinking and believe he actually enjoys moaning. A bus pass for the week is a score, for 60quid he can catch a train which will get him to work in 35minutes. He can easily afford it, working as his old place he could and this new place pays a good few hundred on top of the old salary. I dont see any reason why not to take the train. Anyway quite looking forward to winter knowing hell be sitting an hour n half on the bus with the smelly nutters of society lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tiercel 6,986 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I actually think the moaning is born out of frustration at not being able to do things as you used to? TC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sussex 5,803 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Yep , turned into a real moaner because I can't do the things I used to ..got stuck getting over a fence the other day , one leg over , barred wire between my nuts before realising the new super lightweight racing knee I had fitted wouldn't bend enough to get over , then had ten minutes trying to get back without leaving my testicles hanging on the bloody fence ...not so long ago I would have jumped it without a second thought ...did laugh when telling the old lady about it .. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dare 1,103 Posted September 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hour n half on a bus is a pain in the arse and would annoye me. When there is a solution though which solves the problem i dont understand not doing that. My brother gets a weekly travel card for trains and doesnt complain about it being 60 quid. He also earns half of what my dad does and works twice as hard physically. My dad hasnt said he dont want to pay 60 quid though and isnt short of money. Thats why i think he enjoys moaning otherwise i dont see any reason for not just taking the train. Its so bad that as his going upstairs to go bed hell say "what time do you want up tomorrow incase the alarm dont wake you?" "its find dad i always wake to the alarm, so no need" Then he knows 100% what time everyone starts work but hell ask "what time you leaving tomorrow?" Tell him and he goes "oh, im waking up at such and such...gonna take me over an hour n half to get there". Writing this ouf n thinking about how much he goes on has got me laughing about it. I aint arsed about his moaning but jesus its not hard to just sort out what it is his moaning about. If im downstairs with just my mum in the room and going upstairs ill make a point of mentioning the time. Hell shout out from whatever room his in with some sort of complaint. victor mildew my mum calls him lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
