I did it all for the nookie, but then there wasn’t any nookie. #DURSTWORLDPROBLEMS
I’ve used FWP a couple of times.
As many have said, if you want to complain about minutiae while recognising it is minutiae, no problem. In MSPISM you say "how could he have served a pinot noir when carmenere was the wat to go!! What a jackass!!!’??2 It’s OK
If the cops stop you and they ask for your papers and the officer doesn’t smile at you and you ran “police state!!!, why don’t you torture me right now!!!” then, FWP to you.
It’s all about the context.
Can you get cholera from rape? Just askin’.
My computer mousepad is too small for my uses (video gaming that requires large sweeps of my hand). Life sucks.
Oh nevermind, bought a new and quite large replacement over the internet. Now I am going to have an extra mousepad cluttering up my place. Life sucks again.
Hooooleeeeee shit, all this because of a spray tan malfunction and facebook comments? Yeah, you sure do have problems.
HAW HAW HAW!! Reading comprehension problems are soooo First World Problems!
When people obviously misconstrue the point of a thread I just assume it’s because their butler or manservant type person doesn’t speak or understand English that well and did a bad job of translating it to them.
My manservant knows English quite well I am proud to say.
I thought about starting a Pit thread over the phrase “first world problems” because it’s obnoxious and ubiquitous. It hasn’t been a round for a long time and I’m already sick of it. I guess it’s a first world problem. LOL! Or maybe it’s a white person problem.
My manservant is a monkey butler.
And, I went for a long walk and now I’m terribly thirsty.
#THIRSTWORLDPROBLEMS!!!1!!!
LOL thirdworldproblems!
You know, this whole thing about spots of tan on otherwise blank skin may have a future, as so many of you seethe with unspoken envy for the freckled. Might be a good idea to patent it before the Kardashians catch on.
And yet [White People’s] hope was all that remained.
I have often wondered if we were meant to think that hope was the final and most hideous curse.
I don’t like it because I generally don’t like reading the same joke repeated over and over by people who think they’re being funny by repeating other people’s jokes (i.e. “!!111one!!”).
The actual statement I have no problem with, depending on how it’s used. Some people truly have no concept of how petty an inconsequential their problems really are.
The issue isn’t that people in the Third World don’t complain about minor problems, I’m sure they do. But they have a completely different “default” lifestyle. People who don’t seem the slightest bit happy or grateful to have an abundance of food, clean water, and medication in addition to all the latest electronics and gadgets, but then go on like it’s the End of the World when one of those gadget isn’t working right, certainly deserve a “FWP” comment.
And on a somewhat unrelated note, someone who complains about hearing “Happy Holidays” instead “Merry Christmas” , actually is a “fucking crybaby”.
Depends where it’s been and where it goes.
This really cracked me up. Thanks!
Roger Zelazny wrote a short story around a similar theme - it made me smile.
I’m not sure why you torture yourself like that. But I guess small, bitter, people have to have something to do, and taking potshots at people trying to contribute to the conversation beats looking at pictures of accident victims or posting YouTube comments or whatever the heck else it is trolls do in their spare time. Hope you get what you are looking for!
Well, they could make shitty, insipid, point-missing comments on here instead, like some other trolls I could name, and then get all butthurt when they’re called on it.
But hey, why should she steal YOUR schtick?
