The "developed country problem" thread
« on: June 15, 2013, 10:11:52 AM »
In Sweden we call luxurious "problems" for "developed country problems".

My developed country problem tonight is whether I should drink whisky or take tramadol  :orly:

  Good topic!  Over here we call them  "first world problems"  or  "problems of the 1%."  :laugh:

  My android phone annoys me with Facebook updates unless I block them, which I can do only in 8-hour intervals.  :'(

  My favorite cold-pressed apple juice comes in bulky bottles that take up too much room in my recycling bin.  :'(

  I am often distracted from postwhoring, because of the vast variety of other sites available for my entertainment.  :'(
