Get those little pressure lines on your fingers carrying bags of groceries into the house.

Being nit-picky about the paper and writing instrument I use.
If I've gotten better in regard to paper selection, I still own way too much fountain pens, (mechanical-)pencils, ballpoint pens, and so on.
Fountain pens are very cool, though. My problem is own more inks than pens.

My friend is a multi-multi-multi-millionaire. Her father started a retail giant in my country. She has her own pool building with (i think it's called) a free span roof. It is big enough to contain 6 copies of the house I used to own, exterior, roof, chimney and all. She spends more money per month heating the building and pool (which has not been used in 3 years) and paying maintenance and upkeep, than most people pay on their mortgage per year. She complained that the cost of natural gas went up 1.2%. She was spitting mad, tearing up the bill, balling it up and throwing it down in a huff. She also has a 30 car single span roof garage with row after row of industrial racking which contains mostly packrat stuff. She keeps that "Quonset" as she calls it, a balmy 20C all year through our -25C winters. And also complains about that cost.

I drank too much kombucha in a short time period and it gave me a terrible bellyache.

The firstest world problem ever: Bored horny teen boys memed us into fascism through social media manipulation and no one is willing to face facts about it

Its all true, I was there. Its all coming back to me.
The beige. Computers were all beige.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beige_box
IBM's early desktop computers (e.g. IBM Personal Computer, IBM PC/AT) were beige, and box-shaped, and most manufacturers of clones followed suit.[citation needed] As IBM and its imitators came to dominate the industry, these features became standards of desktop computer design.

and no one is willing to face facts about it
What do you mean by this? I think a lot of people can see that things aren't right with many teen boys.

I mean, if I was that wasteful and then got the bill I'd cry too

So in your mind she wasn't aware of what she was paying to heat it until it went up 1%

Yes but they stop at that instead of seeing them as the cultural mine canary they are, and the proof of it is still the fact no one is doing anything about it
And you are proof yourself not realizing that the teenage boys during Gamergate are about to hit their 30s soon and they didn't stop being easily swayed misogynistic tools
And their indoctrinating a whole new generation through tate and rogan and the like
While everyone seems to just tut tut and say 'wow teen bois amirite
You really have no fucking clue how bad or deep this problem is and it's so well known that Chinese aristocrats wrote about it a thousand years ago, they called it 'The Bare Brances problem', and it resulted in numerous bandit uprisings resulting in entire villages getting raped and pillaged
And it all started with socially disenfranchised young men who had no future
Just like now
You really, really don't know how bad it's going to get. I've spent the last year prepping a remote cabin because our family has survived two dictators and they passed down their tips
If you aren't doing something to secure your family's safety now, it is likely too late unless you are wealthy enough to drop and go at a moments notice.

Or at least didn't think about how much she was using

Excuse my ignorance, but can you not just order things like vegetable rolls, avocado rolls, etc? The variety might be a little lacking, but sushi does not inherently have any animal products in it. Just seasoned rice and usually some seaweed.
Sure, there is some vegan sushi I can get here. But it is only good instead of amazing. Making it an even more ridiculous first world problem.

When I lived with my grandparents for a while I had to use the bathroom without heated floors whenever the maid was cleaning the other one. My current bathroom straight up doesn't have heating.

Variants on that problem have been around for quite some time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_button
On some older IBM PC–compatible computers, the turbo button selects one of two run states: the default "turbo" speed or a reduced speed closer to the Intel 8086 CPU. It was relatively common on computers using the Intel 80286,[1] 80386 and 80486 processors,[2] from the mid 1980s to mid 1990s. The name is inspired by turbocharger, a device which increases an engine's power and efficiency. When pressed, the "turbo" button is intended to let a computer run at the highest speed for which it had been designed.[3]
With the introduction of CPUs which ran faster than the original 4.77 MHz Intel 8088 used in the IBM Personal Computer, programs which relied on the CPU's frequency for timing were executing faster than intended. Games in particular were often rendered unplayable, due to the reduced time allowed to react to the faster game events. To restore compatibility, the "turbo" button was added.[4] Disengaging turbo mode slows the system down to a state compatible with original 8086/8088 chips.
Every time I wonder why they decided to call a button 'Turbo' if fast was the default mode

The ice maker stopped working and When I make Sodastream I pour it over ice so I wouldn't make Sodastream soda and was "forced" to drink the Cokes in the fridge.
It took 2 days before the ice machine was fixed.
