One big pet peeve of mine is a poor person complaining about his/her situation and doing absolutely nothing to fix it
i get that. i am in pain every morning and get up and go to work everyday. so it's hard to find sympathy from me
My point exactly.  You're a hard worker despite your physical pains.  I was born in a third world country and am now self-employed with full financial autonomy, my own car, apartment, and supportive friends and family...DON'T TELL ME you can't fix your life. You just don't want it bad enough
exactly. it really drives me nuts when people feel like they entitled to this or that.
