First World Problems. If it's a problem you can only have if you have money we'll feel bad for you. Then we'll feel guilty for having enough money to have the same problem.
Does your HDTV take too long to turn on?
Is the air conditioning at work too cold during the summer and too hot during the winter?
Does your car's AUX input only allow for two devices?
Someone only give you a large shake, not a super-size?
Is the wireless internet you're stealing not very fast?
Did you have to go extreme lengths to avoid talking to or meeting someone?
If it's a problem you can only have if you have money we'll feel bad for you. Then we'll feel guilty for having enough money to have the same problem.
If you know it's a repost, everyone else knows it too. Don't.
If your post is from a FWP aggregator or feed, they got it from here in the first place. That means you're reposting something we've already seen. That means it will be removed.
No circlejerks or meta-reddit posts. You're on reddit, we're on reddit, you know that we know that you know that we know you're on reddit. Enough.

The bar won't open for another 15 mins
That feeling where you’re ready to sneeze but then don’t. I have been sneezing a bit throughout the day, but lots of moment with the no sneeze
All my NYE-appropriate clothes are too dressy.
Two of my cars have pushbutton start and the other two have old-fashioned keys.
Sometimes when I get into one of the older cars, I absentmindedly poke the dashboard, then quickly realize there's no button.
When I hit the power button on the scale, sometimes there's a lag. Maybe an entire 500 ms.
At this juncture I am already pouring the beans into the cup on the scale
So now this mechanical wonder says the coffee beans weigh zero grams, which isn't valid here on earth, obviously. (e.g. gravity)
So then I must start over and:
pour the beans back into the bag without dropping beans all over the kitchen floor
Power the scale off and back on.
Sigh in disgust and quietly hate those with more responsive coffee scales.
Only then can I weigh the beans before they go into the grinder.
I hate when this happens. It ruins the flow of the whole morning coffee experience.

All the flies are dead
My family did give me a few of the things I asked for, but it seems like another few weren't in the cards- I did get a pretty cute hoodie but not the one I was looking at, and a lot of the clothes I got are the same black and grey I always wear, when I asked for specific clothes because I was trying to expand my wardrobe a little.
At the same time, I feel ungrateful for complaining because my grandfather got me a new phone, but I feel like I didn't really need it. My current one is a little old and cracked, but it works fine, and the new one means I'll need to transfer a bunch of stuff over and lose my browser bookmarks and such. I wish it hadn't been sprung on me as a surprise because now I have to suddenly adjust, and I feel bad that my family spent a lot of money on me- I can't help thinking it would've been easier to get the less expensive things I asked for (and, maybe unfairly, expected), or to just give me some money.
My fave game still tells me that it can't start because I don't have storage space. It's only 7:35 pm so normally I could run to get a SD card to expand my storage from a local phone store but it's Christmas and everything is closed.
Uggghhh, how many trees do toilets kill each year? Should we cancel toilets??

I'll have to sub with a mixture of eggplant-garlic tapenade, Sambal Oelek, Dijon Mustard, pesto, horseradish sauce, and Greek yogurt.
Very annoying!
My girlfriend, unbeknown to me decided to swap out our internet provider to save 3EUR per month… suddenly we were disconnected from the world. Sonos isn’t working throughout the house, heating and hot water is offline and I missed 4 client meetings as my hotspot couldn’t handle the calls. The good intentions of my partner caused more damage in a day than all the savings of the new internet provider for 10 years. What’s worse is she can’t remember any of the log in details or passwords for the account which was once in my name. Also their router is shit, only get signal in 30% of the house
I mean obviously I'm jealous of the CLEAR people, but why can't they have their own TSA agent? It's kind of annoying when the clear agent butts in front of you and the line would have been shorter if you went through general screening.
Apparently the store was out of crumbled feta. Sigh.
