What first world problem did you have today?

The website for my insurance is awful. =(

That's a third world problem. The first world has socialized medicine.

Certainly not. In fact, non socialized anything is far more first world, in the actual definition of the world. Third world refers to communist block countries and their allies, first world applies to the US and their allies. Second world is neutral countries.

The idea that third world means poor is simply a misunderstanding of what the world actually means.

First world was US and allies, second world was the Soviet block, and the third world was everyone who didn't matter.

You're right. Sorry. A first world problem is one not socialized, regardless.

Had trouble focusing on my computer programming work for over 30 minutes because during that time, 5 coworkers argued loudly about 10 feet away about the controversial call during the Cowboys/Packers game.

Social Security, hello? Besides that there are tons of socialist programs and parties active in the governments of practically all US allies.



Today I had to argue with people on the internet, because they were wrong. Bearing the neckbearded man's burden is no easy task, but it must be done for the good of less developed peoples.

Want to take a nap but I'm at work.

I hear you.

My Amazon package still isn't here a week later because I chose free shipping... The depot for this part of the country is a 30 minute drive away. Looks like Amazon's back to enforcing their shipping times.

Found out my former employer wasted a quarter million dollars (made the news). I wasn't worth being put on a better career track for a <$10k/year raise though.

You made me literally laugh out loud when I read your post.

I took the day off work, buy have about an hour of easy stuff to do for tomorrow morning. Feels like an executioner standing over me with an ax, but the work could hardly be easier. I just don't feel like doing it :^/

Thanks, but na. Don't need to have it torn apart.

I half ass the editing because I don't get graded for it and I'm the only one who will ever have to answer for it.

Sinuses are leaking..so annoying.

My nose is clogged up.

(I don't think I'm sick,it's more than likely allergies.)

Indoor allergies don't care what time of year it is.

I put too much Irish cream in my coffee this morning. I was too happy.

I just finished my 750 ml bottle of rum and am too cheap to buy another bottle... or am I concerned about my drinking?

Can't it be both?
