| We’ve all been there. You’re stuck in a shitty situation with a group of people, and it sucks, but everyone seems to be dealing with it fairly well. Tempered emotions, level-headed perspective and bonafide “Hey, it could be worse!” abound, but then it happens. The Crylander appears. The one person out of everyone involved who decides to start bitching and moaning about the instance, as if no one else present is being affected equally whatsoever. |  |
The Crylander’s power is to make a shitty situation even shittier by further adding sheer annoyance via their whining and caterwauling abilities. But there can be only one; if another person begins crying and complaining in a particular instance, they are immediately met with The Crylander’s only defense: “WHY DON’T YOU THINK ABOUT THE REST OF US?!?!” The interloper is silenced, and The Crylander remains singular.
Alternatively, The Crylander may take on other forms. He/she/it may appear after much time has passed since an event has occurred – dramatic or otherwise – and while the entire population of people affected by such an event has moved on with their lives, The Crylander remains as the sole complainer. Additionally, The Crylander may appear at a party during which everyone is having a wonderful time, with the exception of The Crylander. Telltale signs that The Crylander is in attendance include: not talking to anyone, arms folded, pouting in a corner, or checking a cell phone 99.9% of the time.
There can be only one.
