Always complaining, always negative, always looking for that dark cloud, just people who are trying to make others as miserable as they are

----------------------------------------------------
There are three people that I have encountered in my life that I shouldn’t be dealing with. These are the people that suck the life out of the good things out there. These are the people that don’t know how to have fun. These are the people that are so entrenched in the bad things that there isn’t any room for the good things to grow.

Here are the three types of people that I have encountered that are no good people in my life.

Debbie Downer: You know a Debbie Downer when you meet one. They are the kind of person that says one thing that ruins the joyful mood in the room. They’ll say something that just ruins the entire atmosphere for you and your friends.

You come home with a pair of tickets to a concert you want to go to. (Let’s say it’s to Jay-Z or something). You’re super excited and then Debbie Downer says something really negative. Something like this.



“I don’t care about Jay-Z… what I am more concerned about is the environmental damage the preparation of the concert will do to the environment.”

It’s some kind of nonsense where they will say something that totally kills the excitement and worst of all, they express some kind of opinion that nobody cares about. Out of all the responses, they are the only one that just dampens everything.

When you have good news, they’re the only person that doesn’t congratulate you. Instead they decide to tell you their opinion of something that has nothing to do with it. All this Debbie Downer does is just kill the fun. Don’t invite Debbie Downers to your party!

Negative Nancy: This kind of person shoots down every idea you have. They have no faith in your work and also continue to hold you down. A Negative Nancy doesn’t say any words of encouragement. Instead, they find every kind of fault in what you do.

Even though you were told to do a task and you do it correctly, a Negative Nancy will tell you that you did it wrong. This person will continue to make you feel like you can’t accomplish anything.

They don’t make you feel good about anything. And the only reason why I mention this is because I do know a person that does that to me all the time. Holds me down. Not a good environment to be around.

Pessimistic Patty: Optimism is not in Patty’s vocabulary. All this person does is find a way to discourage your bright ideas. They will figure out a way to tell you that hope is not there.

“Maybe we can figure out a way to get out of this situation,” you would say.

And their response.

“No. You’re already screwed. All your options are out. Even if you do find a way to make something happen, all it will end up is becoming a waste of time and you’ll end up failing.”

This Pessimistic Patty doesn’t look at the bright side of life. It’s just the negative things that surround you. There is no hope. There is no reason to believe in a good thing. Pessimistic Patty will constantly remind you that everything is downhill when things get worse.

===

Yeah, I deal with these people and what sucks is that these people sometimes don’t even know that they’re being so negative. It’s tough because I don’t even know how to bring it up sometimes. But maybe I can find a way to get away from these kinds of people. Don’t really need them in my life.

They're just not fun or productive to be around

If you don't like your life, change it

If you don't like the man in the mirror, then change it

If you're truly miserable, then change

And stop trying to bring the people around you down to your level of misery

What is an example of a Debbie Downer?

If you tend to feel or express negative views about almost everything... If we can count on you to sink a helium balloon... If winning the lottery makes you think about what a hassle it will be to claim the prize... ... then you might be a Debbie (or Danny) Downer.

Hearing that this Dallas/Philly game is a “must-win” for the Cowboys

I think it’s actually a more important game for the Eagles

Just complains about everything. The weather, their meals, the restaurant, their friends, their family, the news, their government, their collogues, their associates, the gas pump, gas prices, old people in grocery stores, the crowded mall, the empty mall, the movie they watched, someone being late, someone being early, their lives, their job. their parents, other peoples' meals, who called, who didn't call, someone they don't know who texted somebody somewhere, the rain, the sun, too hot, too cold............................... They want to live your lives, even though they can't even live their own life

Always bitching about something. I just smile or laugh and move on

They're unhealthy people, they'll kill your sunshine if you let them.

So fuck debbie downers

Only when they're, there on weekends! I don't get it, you're retired go out during the week and grocery shop. You're home all day every day. Creates unnecessary traffic, and congestion on the roads. Traffic is brutal up here.

Nope, only when out on weekends grocery shopping! I like seeing old couples still doing things together, but do that during the week. Let working people go out on weekends with less traffic and congestion. Like I said before, reading comprehension, you should try it!
