Over Christmas break I had a cold and the only reason I'd whine was because the dog I was watching wouldn't leave me alone. During that time period I think that dog whined more than I have in my entire life.

Nope, that's Man Flu.
I've always taken a Man Cold to be any ailment that is not a cold but a man is toughing out and saying "it's just a cold" in order to look dedicated or garner some sympathy.
Mind you any time a man even mentions suffering a symptom of some disease or ailment, even in the most pragmatic, observational manner, some woman will be around to patronise them about suffering from Man Flu and talk slowly at them. (Not actually everytime but it feels like it sometimes).

That last sentence is spot on. At least, whenever I get ill, it'll be about ten minutes before one of the 3 girls I live with accuses me of faking it.

In a study about the world's most livable cities, Pittsburgh was the highest ranking US city. I'm fairly surprised about this, but I've never lived in another large city to know what an "unlivable" city is like.
Also, Pittsburgh was number 29, so 28 world cities are better to live in, and none of them are in the US. What the fuck US? 29th is the best you can do?

See, my boyfriend picks on me for being whiny all the time. And I have to admit, I do whine. But at least I'm conscious of it, and working on doing it less.
He almost never whines, until he gets sick. Then he's worse than I've ever been. I never accuse him of faking it, I know he wouldn't do that and he's really sick. But when I ask if he wants something (as I'm doing my best to take care of him when I'm home), he can't just nod or say yes. He has to do this awful, sad puppy dog face and a "yeeeesssss" whine. I get it. You're sick. It sucks. Shut up already.
