I wanted to make ratatouille but the zucchini and eggplant froze in my crisper!

I majestically failed to include key food items on my online grocery order.

So now I have to go OUTSIDE to the supermarket. Will the horror never end?!

#firstworldproblems #physicalmedia According to Mrs Wife, my 4K copies of Twisters and Constantine have arrived.

Unfortunately, I'm at work and won't get to have them in my mitts until Wednesday. Flippin' adulting!

I wonder if I need to be better about date-stamping my leftovers in the fridge. I've eaten a couple of things recently that *smelled* fine but seem to have really done a number on me, gut-wise. Dunno.

(Yes, I have a marker by the fridge but I probably need to have some masking tape there too for labelling tupperware)

I’ve taken an early lunch to go and give blood, and listening to the 7 March episode of Rare Earth on the train I have just added two books to my “to obtain and read” list.

My pile of books to read is still massive, and I haven’t bought a book in over three months.

Could someone just pay me to catch up on my reading please?

#FirstWorldProblems #Phones

I know I'm cheap. I live frugally, hardly ever eat out, etc., but ya gotta have a phone these days and here's my beef:

HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR THE PHONE AND SERVICE AND INSURANCE AND THERE'S NO FREE CASE????

The phones are slippery, so a case is a must. Then, the cases can be another 25 or more dollars.

I got one for around 20 that seems very strong.

BUT STILL!!!

#firstworldproblems Excitedly ordering cheap 4K films from the eBay outlet of a large online store. Then checking the order the next day to find out I won't see them for at least a week and a half!

On the positive side, they should arrive just after I finish my next shift of work. Then my wife can berate me for ordering more films. (Despite the fact I asked her first if she wanted one of the films and she says yes!)

#firstWorldProblems Diese Woche muss ich an unterschiedlichen Tagen die Zeitslots für die Besichtigungen auf der Städtereise in den Osterferien buchen, weil sie da jeweils erst buchbar werden und dann sehr schnell weg sind.

Wenn noch einer von zehn Interrail-Tagen übrig ist…

#FirstWorldProblems

Way back when, when I upgraded from a NEC Versa M to an HP Omnibook 800CT, I used the heck out of it, and it felt great.

About seven years later, I moved to an Thinkpad Z61t. I used the heck out of it, and it felt great.

Seven years after that, I got a Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen.3, which I took everywhere, used the heck out of, and it felt great.

Ten years later, last November, I got a Thinkpad P14s Gen.5 AMD, and.... meh.

Had this iPhone 2 years now and I still daily

Listen, #qualtrics
I love you, you know I do. But in your "look and feel" section for the entire #survey you specify default question/answer/etc. font sizes as 'px'.

Then when I go to specify formatting of a specific question it's in 'pt'.

I would like to make my text larger or perhaps smaller than the default size. How the fuck do I do that? You might as well define one as 26 blorbs and the other as 6, 10, 12, 14, 18, or 24 Zonkies.

Yes, I know I can change some things with custom CSS, which is what I'll have to do. What I wish is that the #design experience was consistent here.

I suppose the overall user-friendliness and intuitiveness of Qualtrics makes little issues like this stand out.

You know, you'd think Lenovo would make a tablet called a ThinkPAD. It's, you know, built into the name and all. You'd think after all these years, they'd be able to make a decent tablet that could go against an iPad.

That moment when you have food but crave something you don't have that will cost more money to get. I could, doesn't mean I should, but I think I shall! #FirstWorldProblems. I'm also greatful to still have such a problem in these uncertain times.

Hacer ejercicio, al aire libre, e intentar recuperarse del resfriado, el nuevo CAP theorem por lo visto no se puede tener todo en la vida... #TrailRunning #FirstWorldProblems

Overheard by my wife at a party last night: "Everything's so expensive nowadays, we even have to turn off the swimming pool lights when we aren't using it". #firstworldproblems

I'm exhausted, but I have tickets to a play tonight. #firstworldproblems
