The First World Problems Thread

-I have more cards than slots in my wallet.
-Sometimes the money doesn't fit well and causes it to sit half open.
-I'm having trouble deciding between a 589nm or a lens.
-I drive to work and I wish fuel cost less.
-I'm tired, because I stayed up late browsing the internet.
-I wasn't sure which of my jackets to wear this morning.

^Of course these are all pretty lame examples that I'd not normally complain about, but it's a first world problems thread and since you asked, here I am...
 





First world flashaholic problem: I have so many flashlights it takes me forever to decide which I want to take with me.
 
I'm hungry, but too lazy to get out of my computer chair and get some food from the kitchen.
 
I want a soda, but Mr. B can never and will never hold a candle to Dr. Pepper, so I drink tea.

My central heating/cooling doesn't have a remote so i have to get up when it gets to warm/cold!

Also, the central heating doesn't go into the garage, so on cold days there is a 3 second space where its cold between the door of my garage and my car door.

My tropical marine fishtank timer broke and now i have to turn the light on and off by hand!

The price of gold has just fallen and all my gold isn't worth quite as much..

My 60inch 3D tv is now obsolete compared to the new 85inch i just saw.. :yabbem:

My 100Mbps internet connection rarely runs at 100Mbps!! :na: (that was just for busman as we only live like 50kms from eachother)

Ba ha hahahaa. Nooope not falling for it!!! You must live more than 50km from me, no body within that distance of me gets internet at anywhere near that speed and according to Telstra we probably never will. But on the off chance that you have found a magical way to get a better speed then I am coming over so that I can watch all the Tech vids on youtube!:beer:
 
I can download what ever you want onto 32Gb usb's and just post them to you if you really want??
 
Thanks RayJay, there is nothing super specific, but every time someone puts a post up with a video attached I cannot watch it because it just won't load, @ 4KBps I cannot even read my emails! Sometimes it goes up to 10KBps and then I can read them, even spend 20min to watch a 2min video! :D
 
Damn, some of these things sound more like third world problems than first world problems. Forget about the middle east and global warming and countries developing nuclear weapons etc. It seems there are more important issues that urgently need to be solved.

Great idea IsaacT, it will be interesting to see what people here bitch about, the things to bitch about grows daily.



Agreed, too damn many of them.



Ask Santa Claus if you can visit for a few days, otherwise try to take a vacation somewhere very far north sometime in the summer, Greenland might be a good place.



We have the same thing here, they all have them now, big sliding glass doors that are activated by a motion sensor. Who the hell decided to do that? What happened to the old doors that you would just push open? If they opened and closed fast like Star Trek type doors then it would be ok.



That's the price you pay for living in or near any big city (too many people). You can have a better quality of life in a small town or a more remote location.
