I'm going to have to replace the aux cable in my car 'cause it's shorting out on me. I mean, I can't play music without it slightly distorting in the left channel.

What is this? Hitler's Germany?

My best friend offered to hold on to, and buy me a Samus amiibo, to which i'll pay her back for upon receiving it. But I asked her too late and have to wait till morning for the safe and sound product that's practically mine to physically touch it.

No... no no no NO!
DAMN THE LUXURY. DAMN IT ALL TO HELL.

My TV is too big, it strains my poor eyes when I play good looking games :(

I have to go buy bread and I don't want to.

Also I can't decide what video game I want to play.

EDIT: Went down the shop to buy bread. Found the shop blocked off by police tape with some police chilling outside. Ok, guess I shouldn't moan about first world problems.

I am waiting for a parcel to arrive which means that I cannot commit to any online games, nor can I wear my headphones in the fear that I might miss the guy knocking on the door.

Not having a job, I know that that might sound as something more than a 1st world problem for some, but I have the savings to manage and get some support (I live in a good country like that) and at least I don't need to worry about war or famine.
The problem it brings more is that before, there was about 40 hours a week I did something... now I have fill that void with something else :O

I'm a substitute for a PE class today? I have two experiences in it and it's pretty much the opposite of my major. It can get?weird.

Where I live, you pretty much need to accept whatever class they give you for substituting if you want to pay your bills.

The second screen on my PC rig keeps flickering when I turn it turn. I have to hit it to make it work properly!

I missed the first ten minutes of a How I Met Your Mother rerun, now I have to wait 55 minutes until it's on the +1 channel! Woe is me.

I've run out of coke. This happens, like, every day.
I'm hoping this is about a fizzy drink habit rather than hardcore substance abuse.

I switched ISPs recently. It's £10 a month cheaper but my connection has dropped more in the month I've had it that in the previous 2 years of the other provider.

I have all the ingredients to make a huge delicious stew that will keep me fed for days at very little cost, but I really can't be bothered to at the moment so I'm a bit hungry, I don't really have many snacks.

I really want to buy a PS4 but there are maybe 3 games on it at the moment that I would want to play and 2 of those I have already played on the PS3. But I want one now, but I can't justify it.

I also want a new phone, but every time I walk into a phone shop I can't find one that I like the look of.

Also there are smudgy fingerprints all over the touchscreen radio/sat nav in my new car. Ok, they're mine but still.

God my life sucks.

I had to stop my Crusader Kings 2 Viking rampage through the east Balkans to go to work for a few hours, where I'm now sitting at a less capable computer with a smaller screen, watching YouTube videos and browsing forums instead of playing vidya games. Truly I experience the epitome of woe.

I sifted through my problems, but they all range from second-world ("Man, where am I going to get all the money I need for school? D:") to third-world ("GOD HAVE MERCY ON MY POOR ABUSED INTESTINES AAAAAAAGH THE PAIN").

So now I have no first-world problems and feel left out of the festivities. ;___;

...Wait-

First, I have to wait until Friday to upgrade my phone; I'm finally getting an IPhone because I use an IPad at work, have many IOS apps, and they don't all translate to Android. But not until Friday. Plus, it's not going to look as cool as my DNA (love the black and red).

Also, my wife and I recently got rid of cable (figuring that Netflix, Amazon Instant, and Hulu are sufficient). I have an antenna for local stations and it won't pick up ABC even though the transmitter is only about 20 miles away. There must be a ridge or tree-line or something in the way. That means I can't watch Jeopardy!

I really want to beat Hotline Miami 2 in one sitting but I don't get home until 5 tomorrow and I have to leave at 8am the next morning, now I am going to spend all day on Wednesday thinking about what the ending will be like instead of working.

1) I've been watching Fate Zero on Netflix while working out. Unfortunately, it's almost over, so I'll have to make do with something else soon. *sulk

2) I decided to boot up Persona 4 Golden on my new Vita, but there was some sort of problem and the game would not start. I shrugged and decided to try Daganropa instead. It wouldn't start either. *Groan

3) Team Fourstar hasn't released a new episode yet. *Whine

4) My room is a mess, but I just can't get around to cleaning it.
