    mate of mine is waiting on some pretty serious results, which makes me think, the little things that get you down, niggley things that might wreck your head, day to day

    do we ever realise just how good we have things?

    after hours, the floor is yours,

    When there's no butter in the butter dish & you want to make a sammich & then you take the butter from the fridge but it won't spread right.

    That's worse than having AIDS.

    Yeah, sometimes when I get a short way outside the city somewhere quite and peaceful, and preferably somewhere beautiful or where I can appreciate the power of nature, like at the sea on a stormy day, I realise how nonsensical it is when I worry about things like work or having to choose between two social gatherings scheduled for the same night.

    Oh no. On the way home from work, a homeless man looked at me.

    The frantic pre-first post shaking, nervous vomiting an diarrhea we all go through before we put up that first little gem. It's worse than rooting through wet coal for decomposing rats for dinner, a classic trumped up third world problem


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,261 ✭✭✭Sonics2k


    I have a toothache from a Wisdom tooth coming up.

    There is no pain in existence worse than this. No exaggeration at all! :pac:

    My deluxe top-of-the-range espresso machine stopped working the other day.

    It turned out my diamond ring got jammed inside it after it fell off my finger when I was loading the machine with Kopi Luwak coffee beans.

    Gawd! These damned first world problems get on my nerves sometimes.

    If only we lived in a world where coffee beans load themselves automatically into coffee machines...

    The trolley takes a Euro coin.
    All I have are notes.

    When you get on the bus and the fare is €1.65 and you only have a €2 coin

    Ugh! My damned African slave wouldn't do any work today.

    Turned out he died.

    Gawd! If only slaves had a lower mortality rate!

    Now I have to contact that dodgy slave-trader again.

    Damned first world problems...

    When you think of a really clever first world problem to post but forget it as soon as you sit down to post it.

    I know what you mean.
    Its not until something serious happens do you realise how something else doesnt mean anything.

    But I think we are natually self-involved to a degree. Obviously some more than others. That we sweat over the small stuff. I think only with experience can we start to learn what matters and what doesnt matter.

    I personally think its apart of the learning experience of life.

    Having to refill the sugar and tea bag jars. Hassle.

    Also, my Dad used to moan about having to turn on the switch on the socket, at the counter, where the toaster was plugged in. Really did grind his gears.

    Frozen food shopping won't fit in freezer cos it's full. Oh the worries.

    The paralysis of analysis:

    Trying to decide on a dvd to watch, put one on, decide not in the mood, try to pick another one out, waste most of the night looking through shelves for something you fancy watching, decide it's too late, go to bed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,214 ✭✭✭wonton


    sitting down to watch tv and eat your dinner and adverts start just after you start eating.



    when the bus arrives and you are only mid way through a smoke.
