Am I the only one who likes to complain?

An interesting thought happened upon me a while ago. I realized that although I will complain about things when ever I have the opportunity, I really do not want them to be changed. I would rather have them stay the same, just so I could continue to complain.
An example most people could relate to would be having Bush in charge of the US. Sure, I complain about how stupid his issues are and point out huge fualts in his campaign, but I really don't want someone to go out and kick him out of power then say "are you happy now?"

I've only lived my own life, so I don't know if other people think the same way or not. All I know is that I would rather complain then actually have something happen. I'm not sure if that's human nature or just my own increasing mental instability, but it's where I stand.

What about you?

I normally complain about what cannot be changed, though my futility is kinda stupid, I learn, eventually. I normally comment nicely on what I do want changed, though sometimes I sound like an a****o*e when I do. Complaining is good because it is one half of your opinion which allows you something to talk about with other people...


...or mabey I'm rambling again, which I do when typing in the Message Boards before deleteing and submitting something. I wish I knew more about sociology, ect...

EDIT(after reading the topic): Um, no.

I don't do a lot of complaining, generally because I am rather bad at arguing and clearly stating my opinion and giving viable solutions. I do a lot of complaining to myself, but I rarely complain about much to anyone else. And when I do complain about something, I usually realize later that it is not as large of an issue as I thought it to be, and it is often not as bad as the alternative.

If I'm going to complain, I'd also like to offer some solutions as I hate the idea of "complaining but not doing anythign about it". And because a lot of the times I don't know of any good solutions, I tend to keep my complaints to myself.

If someone else is complaining and offering solutions, I might add my voice to let the complainee know that it's not just one person who feels that way.

It's not that I don't care enough to change any thing, I would just rather live in a manifestation of hell and complain about it then live in paradise with nothing to complain about.

From the looks of it, it's just me...
