Name your vexing first-world problem

[LuckyTheDog]

Here is mine:

My smartphone won't connect to my workplace wi-fi unless I put it in airplane mode for several seconds and then turn the wi-fi and call functions back on.

[Scuba]

1. Slow and expensive internet access.

[Boom Sound 416]

2. Inability to fast forward programming On Demand

And having to watch the whole thing to get the last 10 minutes

[patricia92243]

5. On Dish? Definitely can fast forward. Could your TV be on the blink??

[Boom Sound 416]

6. Cable

[Kali]

3. whether to tip the housecleaners

4. Babies and kids

in bars and nice restaurants. No adult space anymore, families everywhere. It's all about the baybeez....

[Wait Wut]

7. Not being able to find...

...the perfect shade of orange nail polish that is unfrosted.

[antiquie]

8. My laptop only has two USB ports.

9. .

[redwitch]

19. I hate that too!

Grrr.

[Denninmi]

10. Oh, so many come to mind.

1) Windows 8 on my new laptop sucks.

2). My iPhone goes directly to voicemail far too often.

3) I am considering a new vehicle soon
- thinking a 2013 4x4 Avalanche pickup, before they are gone, but I also like the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sierra. Decisions decisions.

11. the scroll pad on my laptop isn't working

and using the down key moves soooooooooooooooooooo slowly.

[Ron Obvious]

12. Junk Mail

We have a small mailbox, and it's stuffed to overflowing nearly every day with crap I don't want.

[LeftofObama]

13. I decided to have some cheese and crackers.

After I was already sitting down in front of the tv I realized I had too much cheese and not enough crackers. I had to walk all the way back to the kitchen to get more crackers.

[Brother Buzz]

14. A replacement rake handle cost more than a brand spanking new rake

[denbot]

15. My iPhone 5s won't down load audiobooks over the LTE Network

I got pissed and offered my phone to my kid yesterday, then found out about a free mobile hotspot device today..

[NewJeffCT]

16. I was trying a video conference on google hangouts last night

and, the feed was going too slowly for my tastes. The horror.

[loli phabay]

17. autocorrect on my cellphone screws with me, and i cant turn it muff.

[cherokeeprogressive]

18. I can only skip 3 songs on Pandora per session.

[LadyHawkAZ]

20. My nose piercing catches on every piece of cloth I get near

I've pulled it completely out three times just drying my face.

[u4ic]

21. autocorrect 'corrects' my perfectly legitimate words

with gibberish. Either obscure, or non existent words.

[pipi_k]

22. Had three rings

That were too small because of weight gain (two had to be cut off). Had them resized and now they feel too loose. Had to buy a skinny band to keep one of them from coming off completely


Oh, woe is me...

[aikoaiko]

23. Too much food.

[laundry_queen]

24. My flat screen tv in my bedroom

not a huge one, mind you (32 inch), and it is 7 years old...has this annoying habit of sometimes refusing to turn on by remote or by the switch on the tv. The stupid 'on' light just keeps flashing, but the tv won't turn on. I have to reach behind the dresser and unplug it and wait 30 seconds. It never fails, it's always when I can't sleep and I want to watch something to fall asleep to...I have to get up out of my warm bed, try and figure out which plug in the powerbar is the tv, unplug it, wait, plug it back in and test it. Sometimes it happens 2 days in a row, sometimes it's not for a month or 2. ARGH! At least I recently labeled the plugs so I don't get confused and unplug the internet then wait 5 minutes for it to come back online. That's annoying.

[GReedDiamond]

25. I have lost the power supply...

...for my 16 in/8 out mixing board!!!

And I can't find three fucking cymbal pads for my Roland TD-20X.

[a la izquierda]

26. The CrossFit gyms here are way too expensive.

Sigh.
