    　　If you think a Web site designed especially for complaining(抱怨)sounds unique, then think again．If you have a complaint, there are hundreds of sites that allow you to get it off your chest．Sites exist for complaining about such things as defective(有缺陷的)products, government inefficiency, and offensive advertising．There are even sites where you can complain about anything that bothers you, including love, family, or just the weather．These Web sites won't actually do anything about your problem; they just let you blow off steam．Here's a sampling of complaints people have written．

    　　1．Something I can't stand is pencils! They need to be sharpened after every page you write．And then don't you hate it when they start to make a scratching noise?

    　　3．I see red every time I get my credit card bill from the bank．There's always a check for a large amount attached with an invitation to sign it and spend it on“anything I want．”I have enough sense to tear it up and throw it away, but I bet a lot of people don't．They don't realize that when they use the“free check”, the expense gets put on their credit card bill．Boy, they must be surprised when they get that bill! I think that banks shouldn't be tempting(引诱)people with those checks．

    　　4．It isn't fair that the U．S．dominates the Internet! I go to fill in a request for a catalog or a prize or a free offer, and I find it's limited to residents of the United States．I live outside the U．S．, and it's frustrating(使人沮丧的)!
