<p>Charles Darwin had a lot of bad days. Some of his finest moments of whining have been preserved for history, thanks to places such as the <a href="https://www.darwinproject.ac.uk/">Darwin Correspondence Project</a>.</p>
<p>Here are ten highlights that will be relatable to anyone who has ever had to work or go to school.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<h2><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">1. “I am very poorly today and very stupid and hate everybody and everything.&#8221;</span></h2>
<p>A classic. Something we feel every Monday, really.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<h2 class="cvGsUA direction-ltr align-center para-style-body"><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">2. “I hate myself, I</span><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none"> hate clover, </span><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">and I hate Bees.&#8221;</span></h2>
<p>I don&#8217;t think he meant it. But working on one thing for so long can make you feel that way.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<h2><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">3. “I hate a Barnacle as no man ever did before.&#8221;</span></h2>
<p>What on Earth did a barnacle do to this poor man?</p>

<h2><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">4. “All this is very annoying.&#8221;</span></h2>
<p>Yes. Yes it is.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<h2 class="cvGsUA direction-ltr align-center para-style-body"><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">5. “I am sick of </span><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">the subject, </span><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">and myself, </span><span class="OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none">and the world.&#8221;</span></h2>
<p>Well, thanks for the sacrifice, Chucky D., because you really came through and gifted one of science&#8217;s greatest achievements.</p>

<p>Highly doubt that, sir.</p>
