What's the most "First world problem" you've experienced?
-
Would they at least make less food to avoid the leftovers???????!!!!!!
Nope they were very wasteful. And they all thought they were so much better than anyone else.
-
Well that does make capitalist sense I guess
Greed is good bra. Ask the devil.

Dear Mr. Orange,
Can you tell me more about why greed is a good tiddy support?
Love you,

I dated a girl who’s family never kept leftovers from meals even thanksgiving dinner they would throw out anything not eaten after dinner.
Wtf leftovers are like half the fun

Pretty sure the ones at my work (only by the higher-ups and the people responsible for ordering stuff) don't have presets. So since my desk was just outside my boss' boss' door, whenever he was out I would pop in and move his desk halfway up. That way, every single time he walked in to use his desk, he'd had to move it whether he wanted to stand or sit.
I didn't dislike him or anything. I (and every person I told to do it when they went into his office) just thought it was funny.
The thing is, the desk in the office does have presets. You still have to hold the button until it stops at the saved height.

What. The. Fuck.
Not only is that comment insane, but not a single person here seems to be opposed to the idea of disabling a feature that is trying to reduce pollution. I know the corpos are doing most of it but come on, just get used to the auto stop so you don't idle poison into the air.

bet they white and Christian.

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.

and what do you expect me to do about it? I'm a 52 year old fat dude, and I'm not going to jerk off a bunch of horny simps.

White yes, but Mormon.

I guess being unable to lose weight?
It is ridiculous how privileged it is in the context of human history to actually struggle with too much calories.

My wife is technically obese. She's not bedridden fat like you see on TV, just nicely rounded. She complains about wanting to lose weight and finding it hard.
I suffered pretty serious poverty before meeting her and turning my life round, and also the brexit-covid combo basically emptied our supermarket shelves and scared the shit out of us all.
My mouth agrees with her that we should both do more to lose weight, but my mind says "bitch finish that sandwich let's get a bit more famine resistance in us."

I know nothing about mormonism except for surface-level info and memes, but I would have assumed they'd be more frugal types.

I think this is also a big part of the issue.
Many countries are only recently in the phase of over consumption, meaning that parents and grandparents are often teaching kids early on to not waste food in a extremely unhealthy manner once you are in the context of over consumption.
For some people their parents grew up in a time where wasting the last few bites of a meal, or letting food go bad, or not eating food that in front of you would actually be bad. Like, if you didn't eat the last few bites you are wasting a valuable resource that you might not get the privilege of eating tomorrow.
But for example in many parts of the US right now, you are much better off learning to throw food away than to learn to force feed yourself.
It is a shame that the world is like that, but the reality is that for many people today, being okay with throwing away food is an actually important part of staying healthy.

my first world problem is that my commute is too short to finish a full podcast
My coworker's commute is almost an hour on the train, so she can read a new book every week! My commute is only 5 minutes on the train, so I just listen to one or two songs. I wish I could read as many books as she does.

There is a pixel out on my monitor and I debated getting a new monitor.
That would annoy me and I'd spend too much time looking at it and thinking about it. I can't live under those conditions.

Even worse
Extra worst! As another example her dad who is no longer alive was close friends with that Bundy family from southern Nevada that had that stand off with the government.

I got a Rx for zepbound and lost a bunch of weight.

Yes they run the gamut of how they live their lives. I know some in the Mormon community who are very frugal and save and what not. And there are many people i have known in the Mormon community who act like they are Hollywood celebrities and are just wasteful with everything. Always buying a new car or truck, selling and moving into bigger houses, buying expensive name brands clothes etc.

I don't think that's accurate, there are many truths people acknowledge without taking any action to improve things.

Oh we're just making things up now? Okay buddy
