I'll toss some off-hand remarks here in the comments, sleep on it, and see if inspiration strikes to expand on something tomorrow or the next day.
First the quote, "A man endures misfortune without complaint." I think there is a fine line between the mental strength of stoicism and the psychological injury of bottling everything up, resulting in substance abuse as "self-medication," abuse of those closest, and even suicide. Injustice is a misfortune which will persist until someone complains and acts to make the ignorant aware and bring shame upon those who are guilty or complicit.
Complaint and compliment
A number of my co-workers have habits which irritate me, but on the whole, are still wonderful people.
Nickname given or received
Yeah, I'm not going to go here, because these are hilarious but exceedingly off-color stories.
How do people see you
I don't even know where to start on a physical basis here. I'm not sure I can take that kind of perspective. I just know my entirely average adult male height is exploited by my shorter-than-average female co-workers. They only want me for my body, right?
Back in fashion
I would like to think it was once fashionable to have civil discussion when we disagree, and instead of the weak "agree to disagree" platitudes, people really wanted to live and let live instead of demanding political and corporate pressure be applied to coerce others. More superficially, we are way overdue for a ska and swing revival.
It's an interesting quote right? I was wondering if someone would comment on it as usually no one really comments on the quotes I add in.
Seems like a good complaint/compliment opportunity.
I was hoping to see something funny in response to this.
Oh...That happens to you too? 😂
Now wouldn't that be a nice thing to come back into vogue.
