Do We Need To Complain

[teacake44]

I'm not unknowledgeable about world war 1, but after watching WW1 in colour it makes you wonder what we really have to complain about, ( including myself ) it brings one back down to earth, for what we take for granted. Well worth watching if you can stand it?

Quite disgusting.

Any particular reply or the one I just made?

/// AOG, I can assure you that in Germany 1952 was not long after the war finished. ///

Oh I didn't realise that Germany worked to a different calender to the rest of the World.

Not your posts, Mamya.

Thank you.

Well, I considered the harassing comments directed towards AOG by the "Chortlesplutter Gang" to be quite disgusting.

I don't think AOG has anything to complain about.

However, I think Teacake has something to complain about.

My goodness v_e get over yourself, you are going WAY over the top!! I can think of many, many more things in this world much more 'disgusting'. Still, if it makes you feel all self-righteous ..

I get this OP and fair play.. However just because someone once experienced something terrible we never wish to experience ourselfs, doesn't mean we should put up with our way of lifes simply because we're not being bombed or worrying for our lifes.

People talk as if war on this level is normal. It's not.. warped.

For example, if a woman is living in an abusive relationship, she can't simply think.. Well at least my man is at home and not at war, how lucky i am. And if a man has to go to a terribly paid job whilst being abused by his boss, can't simply think well at least i've not been recruited best make the most of it.

I think the mentality, "oh you can't be upset about X because Y is happening to a child in Africa" is stupid.

I thought shortly after meant Aug Sep 1945
you know at the time the Cossacks were being sent back to Stalin that no one on this site professes to know about ( see betrayal of Yalta)

I went to primary skool and then shortly after went to uni
seven y gap - doesnt really roll off the tongue - or else I am bright but not that bright.
