Theophr., Char. 17 [22], 1 ἔστι δὲ ἡ μεμψιμοιρία ἐπιτίμησίς τις παρὰ τὸ προσῆκον τῶν δεδομένων grumbling is a species of immoderate complaint about one’s allotted circumstances; Lucian, Cynic. 17, Tim. 55; Plut., De Ira Cohib. 13 p. 461b; Ptolem., Apotel. 3, 14, 23; Vett. Val. 17, 12) the compound μέμφομαι ‘blame’ + μοῖρα ‘lot in life, fate’=complaining about one’s lot, discontented (w. γογγυστής) Jd 16 in a satirical comment about people who choose a deviant life style and then complain (with tongue in cheek?) that this is their ‘unfortunate fate’. Cp. Edmund’s speech in WShakespeare, King Lear Act 1, sc. 2: “This is the excellent foppery of the world … we make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon and the stars: as if we were villains on necessity; fools by heavenly compulsion … and all that we are evil in, by a divine thrusting on.”—DELG s.v. μέμφομαι.
