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.

I feel so weird about going now. Like I'm from a straight-laced, cultural, Christian family, and I was already embarrassed about going by myself. Now I'm just thinking about how it will look to my mom(separated) and sisters and our church if both men in the family take separate*,* lengthy vacations to Thailand in the same year after having been there, together, at the beginning of the year?
Also, I felt like I had an "awakening" over there. Like a weird, unique, spiritual experience. From what my dad was telling me, I suspect that he's thinking the same thing! Ugh, I feel so stupid. And now this whole experience feels a little lame. I'm so bummed. Thailand was meant to be MY thing!
Maybe I'll go to Vietnam or something but, ugh, it won't be the same!
Title. I've been waiting 8 days for a potato ricer.
I ordered a package 2 days ago and it was supposed to arrive today but it hasn’t and showing no signs of arriving
I had to dump it out, and refill it from the other dispenser on the other end of the building. Now I’m eating bland noodles with all the flavoring washed away.
(I did a search and found this topic from 11 years ago so I figured it was safe to post again.)
I just ran into a website I bought some stuff from, and I typed in their domain from memory and Chrome couldn't load it. I typed www. in front and it loaded just fine.
Extra level first world problem: Sigh. I just tried hitting the non-www address to see what the error exactly was and the website loaded just fine. At least that didn't happen during a live demo!
Regardless of this website apparently being only kind of weird about this, it's still a thing in 2024.
Though these days it seems to mostly be smaller sites that are likely not run by tech experts. It's probably fair enough that many wouldn't realize that example.com and www.example.com would both need to be set up if they're techy enough to figure things out but still not an expert.
Every couple of years i see this complaint somewhere on here and now with yet another even thinner bezel and sexier screen, Apple has released the most susceptible model that users can accidentally autoscroll.
Thank you Apple for discouraging doom scrolling. I hate you.
I've waited like two hours for it to cool enough and that only happened when I took the top off the mug and let it sit for about 15 minutes. By then I was ready to head home and no longer interested in my drink.
It was out of battery too so I had to leave it magnetically attached to the side of my iPad for a minute before I could start using it.
I never get lucky with the other flavors, just a bunch of purple ones
I love them. I do. My parents always want me to go on vacation with them but oh my GOD they just sit there and drink! Like not even a book makes the vacation interesting. But I’m not one to turn down a free vacation, so…
EDIT: guys I just want us all to remember that we’re on FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS
It would be ironic, if not.
I find my existence to be either that of complete delusion or something profound and yet alien and unappreciated. Born in the wrong place wrong time, or I simply believe I do.
I talk strange, think strange. Could be a combination of a slew of disorders or genetic traits. Either way, I feel as if I hit a home-run, but no one was on the field to see it. Like some, twisted Good Will Hunting.
I'm not sure why I'm writing this. Posting it. I get existential quite often. This is my way of coping I suppose.
Does anyone else feel, fake. Feel stuck in some story, where only you appear to have free will?
I don't feel special, I am not saying I am or am not anything. I've actually been diagnosed with many things. Reality to me, is akin to a science fiction story now. Or some bland comedy.
I feel like I am third person, aware. Not just self aware, but more so. I can't quite describe it.
I'm probably just overthinking it. Thanks anyway.
That is all.
I hate Spotify so damn much it's not even funny. Sometimes I just want to listen to one song. ONE and Spotify decides to pay like three or four different, unrelated songs so I have to wats like half of my skips skipping songs that I didn't want to hear and never asked to hear. And then playlists and albums are literally useless. I was trying to listen to the Wonka soundtrack and two songs in Spotify completely ditched the literal album it was on and began recommending its own songs that are "like" the album. Like please Spotify, I want to listen to them music I want to hear when I want to hear it. I don't wanna hear what you think I want to hear. And it's even more disgusting when you consider they have a literal monopoly on the music streaming market. But I can't make a playlist on YouTube either because YouTube doesn't play when my phone is off or when I'm doing something else on my phone.
TL;DR: Spotify won't let me listen to what I want
I had to quickly try to figure out where I knew them from. Would they be from the Yacht Club group where I keep my sailboat? No, maybe my outdoor friends that I whitewater kayak with? Or my redneck friends that know my fishing boat? Friends from the lakehouse where I keep the two smaller sailboats? Rowboat, sea kayaks, or canoes? Doubt they mean the SUP. I might have a boat problem...
We're talking about practice! Not a game! Practice.
I have a TV in my room I bought a few months ago but when it's plugged in it has a little light at bottom but it's very bright so every night i have to unplug it so I can sleep without it glaring at me
Thankfully it came back a couple of minutes later. That could have been a crisis.
I waited at the gate with the masses
I knew I wouldn’t be able to access the platform for a few days, so I thought I’d wait and get my money’s worth by renewing when I’m back. But they put their price up by a dollar yesterday, so I feel hard done by.
