live at random, live as best one can
Inspired by the First World Problems Rap, viewable here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2p5svFJ9cQ

Post your own personal first world problems - not only is it kinda fun, but it also makes you step back and see how inconsequential some of your problems are.
Here's some of mine:

- When I wanna watch the latest episode of a show on sidereel, and people post links to the second to last episode under the title of the latest episode.

- My cellphone provider automatically renewed my contract and spent all the points I'd saved up on free text messages or minutes or something, when I really wanted to use them to get a new phone for free.

When I got in to work this morning I found that someone drained the coffee without making a new batch. I went to make a new batch and found that we were out of the Caribou coffee that we normally have, and instead had to make the vastly inferior Starbucks blend.

I was out watering the garden and the hose got a kink in it like eight times and every time it did I had to set my drink down in the dirt to get it unkinked. Then my hands were dirty after touching the hose. Also the neighbor's dog would not stop barking at me now matter how many times I swore at it.

I've gone a bit wrong on the sock I'm knitting, but I can't be bothered to go back and put it right. Now I'm slightly worried that the pattern will be a bit off further down the leg.

I need a bath, but all the towels are on top of the drier, and I'll have to walk on the cold kitchen floor to get to them, or find my slippers, which is a degree of commitment to this bath that I don't feel ready for and will require me to stop knitting the previously mentioned sock slightly earlier than I otherwise would.

If I go and fetch the towels, I'll have to decide what to read in the bath, and I've already read everything that I'm prepared to get wet at least once. Now I need to go to the charity shop and buy more books.

I have the option to get a new phone with a new contract a few months early, but this would require me to pay for Verizon's new tiered data rates.

I use more than the 2GB per month, so my new contract would be more expensive :( :10bux: :(

To that end, I wish businesses all across America didn't close early or open late just because it's Sunday and we're a nation built around accounting for people going to church all day on Sunday.

Michael Voltaggio's new sandwich restaurant is closed Monday AND Tuesday. What the gently caress, who does that? I wanted my foie gras and fried chicken skin sandwich, goddamnit!

The 408 bus is fast and awesome with on-board TVs, but it doesn't run that often. The 8 bus is old and dirty and slow with no TVs, but it runs every five seconds. THIS IS A HARD DECISION.

Gluten-free beer is gross.
