Meta - Moaning: Moaning about moaning.

[Rusty Nails]

I have one work colleague who could moan for the Olympics. Sometimes it actually grates on me, I can feel my heart rate going up....fark off, I'm thinking and stop moaning for chrissakes. Occasionally I tell him,...for all the good it does.
Nah, let them who moan about almost anything at all wallow in their pit of doom, not for me I'm afraid.

I suspect you haven't fully understood the pleasure to be gained from a good old moan about trivial things.

Anyone can moan about Brexit, lying politicians, racism, injustice and that is understandable, desirable even, although not really enjoyable. If It's important and serious it's not really moaning.

Moaning over the quality of the beer, terrible television, the weather, young people, old people, disk brakes, bike helmets, eating beetroot, Jose Mourinho, is in a different category and that is enjoyable moaning that can be turned into a competitive sport.

I’m going to start a Pedant’s Club (or should that be Pedants’ Club?). At our first meeting we’ll moan about missing Oxford commas.

If it's a Pedant's club can more than one person join?

Can I have a moan about the Met office orange snow ❄️ that wasn’t even orange and wasn’t even snow, more a small slush puppy?

I think it would be ok to have multiple members just as long as only one was a pedant.

C'mon you must know me by now, things are important to people if they allow them to be.

Exactly..

So why the surprise, when other folks are interested in arguably more important things ??

You know - like how the country is run??

I know, just trying to lighten the mood.

Lost again to West Bromwich.

Can you not have a pedants collective then.??

Like the Tolpuddle martyrs - only slightly less pitchforky .

More a gathering of precisionists.

A Pettifogger of Pedants perhaps?

So sorry for your loss..

Maybe you need to run around faster, and kick the ball into that net thingy a bit more often perhaps ??


Just an idea, I don't know much about it really ..

Doesn't look like our lot do either, you talk a lot of sense for a farming bird.

Are we adding or multiplying the moaning?

 

[Ming the Merciless]

We are applying the bodmas rules for moaning.

Apparently it's a parliament of pedants but others say it's an actually of pedants........I saw somewhere also it was a piddle of pedants, which I much prefer.

And a depression of moaners?

Some of us are happy moaners.

An orgasm of moaners?
