It's been how many weeks now after the election and the crybabies are still whining about it. Well, all I can say is invest in a good set of earplugs, because these whiners will be crying and bawling for the next four years. This will go down in history as the world's longest temper tantrum. But it begs the question: When did America devolve into Crybaby Nation? I think we should observe some key milestones in that journey.

There was once a time in America it did not need to be said that you didn't bring your dog into restaurants, grocery stores, doctors' offices, antique stores, and so on. It was just common sense and proper manners not to do that. But today, people demand the so-called "right" to bring their filthy pooches into restaurants, supermarkets, cafes, coffeehouses, and so forth. Why? Most often, they call them "emotional support animals". And not just dogs are classified by that deceptive term, but also pigs, horses, ducks, kangaroos, marmots, and various rodents. Not that these critters especially enjoy being roped into the neurotic insecurities of their "human guardians" as they call themselves. I doubt that aquatic birds sat on a lake and said, "Gee, I think I'll go into the companion field as a career move…" Right, but there are millions of Americans now who cannot do something as simple as going to the grocery store for a head of lettuce without dragging along five teacup poodles in orange vests they

Again, when people need something as ridiculous as "emotional support animals", we've got a society that not only cannot be taken seriously but should not be taken seriously. It's easy to see why Americans are such whiners and crybabies—the behavior is not only tolerated, it's encouraged. Everywhere you go, it's like being in the zoo and I'm not just talking about all the animals running around to "support" everyone. Peoples' kids are raised with no discipline, manners, proper public behavior, or boundaries whatsoever. Because that might hurt the kids' "self-esteem". They now call it "free-range parenting" or some dang thing designed to sound bohemian. And if the kids run out into traffic and get hit as a result, then it must be we need fifteen new traffic lights and a law named after the dead kid. "If it saves just one life…" I have a better way to save lives. Stop justifying and encouraging stupidity. My gosh, people, circular saw blades now carry a warning embossed on them that says: "Do Not Try To Stop Blade With Fingers".

Americans say they "haven't got time" to do things like raise their kids or cook a healthy meal, but they somehow manage to come up with several hours a night to watch television. Hilariously, CNN has been reporting some Saturday Night Live skits parodying Trump and Putin as "news". Not that "news" is necessarily any different than a comedy show that's seen its better days, to be sure. The only difference between television news programs and television comedy shows is that the television news does not go into rerun syndication. You won't see all the news stories about Obama's resounding success in bringing democracy to Syria and claims that if you like your health care plan, you can keep it, being rerun on the off channel along with The Munsters and Three's Company. For that, we can be thankful.
