First World Problems..

I get upset when I buy some donuts only to find I got the day old donuts by accident instead of the fresh one.

I want a donut now...you suck. But I love you anyway.

I hate when the toilet seat is cold.

and yet am creeped out when it is warm.

Quite the conundrum, isn't it.

That is no way to talk about your wife.

I am his wife, I am not sure what say to that.

Is it a first world problem when you spend the better part of your day debugging some C code originally written by someone from the third world?

I'm not sure if that should be a sum, average, or and. I'm pretty sure it's not an xor though.

Sorry the post reminded me of the song. I don't like to feel dismissed and I would if I felt like someone was suggesting my problems don't matter because there are bigger issues elsewhere.

My brother and his family do charitable work in impoverished areas and I can't imagine him suggesting my issues aren't important because they aren't as bad as some things he has seen.

I hate the whole "First World Problems...." thing, because it's usually Americans complaining about their problems. But America is not a First World country. This is the New World - ie, the 2nd world. Smooshing us in to the 1st world, and naming many old world countries "2nd world" during the cold war was just annoying and confusing, and the cold war is over now anyway.

In an era when many college students can't locate Washington, DC on a map, should we really be cluttering up peoples geographic minds this way? Simply knowing which world a country belongs to will become as difficult as remember whether coffee or fat or carbs or whatever is good or bad!

Now I am not sure what I should be calling my problems, seeing as I am from New Zealand, but was born in England? Which way should I go? It's a dilemma...

I kid you not. My roommate texted me to ask how I turn on the TV. There is no remote. It didn't come with one. It was second hand, and it'd gotten lost in the mix somewhere. I personally don't care that it doesn't have a remote. I have to move 3 feet to get from couch to TV, and I don't watch all that much TV anyway.

I have short people problems. I look hella sexy doing the oompa loompa dance, too. They're my distant relatives

Sorry, but you don´t know the meaning of ´first world´. First, second and third world refers to two economic standards, viable capitalism(with democracy) and industrialization. If you have both, you are first world, if you have neither you are third world. Countries like N.Korea ( with industrialization) or many former soviet countries are sometimes called 2nd world because they don´t have real capitalism ( it is still centrally controlled by a few people). China is on the verge, or just recently has become a first world country ( because in the practical sense, it has capitalism even if they don´t admit it).

1st world - capitalism with democracy, industrialization
2nd world - usually just industrialization
3rd world - neither

I have lived in a 3rd world country for the past couple years. It is a real eye opener... but I still have first world problems here that I laugh at when I consider what the people living here go through.
