I am intensely bothered by the people who still have their Christmas lights up in mid-January.
My husband has a 1st world problem. One year, he decided to leave them up all year, and to leave them on all night too. I told him not to, because we had signed the HOA agreement where we promised we wouldn't. He ignored that, and we got a letter asking us politely to take them down. He was so mad.
Weatherman says real cold next week. I hate the cold. Of course, it's January (unless you live in the S. Hemisphere, in which case it's summer). But, of course it'll be cold...
See you laugh, but a service manager told me one time he had to give those out to people because many are too lazy to mess the with the 123M buttons on the seat bolster. When I got my car back the seat was always in the right position because they just held down 1 and it went back where it was supposed to.
That's pretty first world. There is a technology where I can program 3 different seat configurations and store them to memory but.... that requires pushing a button then holding another down for 2 seconds.
Too much WORK.
I also overheard one time at the Mercedes service center. "Can you guys program my disatronic so I know how far I am from my garage wall"? "Well sir thats what Parktronic is for." Yeah but it gets me too close to the wall and then I have to risk scraping my leg on the license plate frame." "uhhhh...Well sir, you could stop at the the first second or third orange bar they roughly correlate with 6 inches." "Yeah but that doesn't give me a number." "I want it to show in the disatonic display." 'uhhhh let me get my manager."
Its very first world that someone would bend over backwards make something work how its not intended to work just for customer satisfaction.
I have a serious issue going on here, I ate 7 cream cheese filled jalapeno poppers and now the inside of my mouth, my tongue and my lips are numb..........LOL
We rode along the waterfront in our Maserati, and the wind blew my hair because the top was down. I had to brush it before we could eat our lobster dinners. What a bother!
Which reminds me tomorrow I have to trade in my old Mercedes for new one, it is almost 3 weeks old and the gas tank is almost on empty. I'd hate to be stuck in an unsavory neighborhood when it reached empty.
Yes I know please forgive me, I just started to feel sensitive as I read through these. And I'll click away from this topic in just a sec. I do see the humor, but just imagine for a moment a bald, dying cancer patient in a room full of beauty queens who are complaining about having a bad hair day. It's psychologically painful to hear people complaining about their luxuries, even jokingly.

Oh, lighten up. I live on $890/month in a low income senior facility and I still have 1st world problems. I bet you could come up with one.
My new one for today:
I got some more stuff delivered from Amazon Prime - but now I have to take out the boxes. Sigh.

This cracked me up! One of the things I got delivered today from Amazon Prime was Taste of the Wild dog food! I buy the salmon flavor. Free shipping!
I had to buy my dog a new Halloween costume because the neighbor kids wanted to know why he was wearing the same costume as the previous year.
That's nothing, I had to buy new Halloween music because the CD Hubby bought scared the snot out of neighbor kids and when he turned it on as they were all half way up the driveway they ran screaming away from our house. Then I had to go on a diet before January because I ate all the leftover candy.
Why is Halloween so complicated now? It used to be the easy/fun holiday.
