Nobody likes a buzzkill. Nobody likes to hear your parents to tell you to turn down the Pink Floyd or to shut off Super Mario Brothers 3 when you’re about to defeat Bowser. Those are buzzkills of my past. My buzzkill in Korea are the people who have nothing better to do than sit and complain about everything Korean any chance they get.
These people are everywhere sadly. They are the kind of people who compalin about the most trivial things, ranging from a commercial seen on tv to the way someone may dress, whatever. It’s bullshit. If you have something genuine to complain about, such as being mistreated at work, fine, you have a valid point for wanting to complain. But when you complain about something trivial and pretty meaningless, you just make yourself look like a pompous ass.
Facebook is where we all often see the Korea complaints (and some are more than valid). The majority of complaints are about something minor and it pisses me off. You work two to four ACTUAL hours a day of teaching and get paid for an eight hour day and you still have the gall to complain, let alone have hours of free time to complain on Facebook? Puhhhhleaaaaaaaaaaase………
I’m aware that as I write this, it probably seems that I am complaining about those who compalin. Not my intenntion. I have my share of bad days here too, but complaining to the masses doesn’t make it better.
1. Most things that constitute a bad day are pretty minor things in the big picture of life. Shrug them off and move on.
2. Just roll with it. Things happen.
3. Don’t broadcast everylittle “bad” thing for the world to see. Some of us are decently happy here and don’t want our buzz killed.
