"Because my life sucks"

[Aliquid]

If he didn't care about those things (car, job, home), he wouldn't be whining "my life sucks." He wouldn't have started the monologue with "my life sucks."

I disagree.

If someone asked me "why aren't you out playing sports?" I would respond "because I suck at sports". That wouldn't be a whine, it would be a simple statement of fact. Furthermore, I don't care. I have no desire to be better in sports because they are not important to me.

Parson saying "my life sucks" is a fact, and observation, a piece of information which is needed to properly explain why he spends so much time on his games.
