piss and moan

To grumble, gripe, or complain excessively and/or in an annoying fashion. My daughter has reached the age where she pisses and moans about everything we ask her to do. Well, if you spent less time pissing and moaning and more time doing your work, you'd be finished a heck of a lot sooner!

It's the perfect soundtrack for an evening when you crack open a two-sixer and find that sympathetic ear to listen to you piss and moan about the fact she's gone.
