I'm just happy no one has yet dismissed someones complaints with a smug "First world problems" ******** statement...
The whole dismissive "first world problems" crap is based on one idea: in a first world country, you obviously aren't allowed to have problems, and anything that annoys you should instead make you sit back and think of the starving chillins in some other country. To hell with that ridiculous philosophy...a problem is a problem...problems that you have will be completely different to a problem someone in a third world country will have. That doesn't make them any less of a problem for the person it affects. I've seen those "funny" pictures where someone has, for instance, locked their keys in the car, or dropped an ice cream, or something, and someone will have added lettering saying "first world problems". The fact is, for the person it happens to, it is a problem...and to be blunt, someone in a primitive village in the Congo isn't going to have the same problems as you do, so it is irrelevant to them in those "third world countries". So I suppose that's what grinds my gears...people who smugly dismiss your mention of lifes problems with a glib "First world problems" saying...

Parked outside a milkbar having a snack at work, the wobble of the chins on the lady approaching the park next to me sends off alarm bells. She decides to park extremely close to me. While trying to claw herself out of the drivers seat, I insist that I move my car out of the spot next to her to let her out and so she doesn't open who door onto my car. She says no it's okay, 'she'll be right wuss', and then proceeds to open her door onto my car as she hobbles out.
Pet hate; people who park too close, people who carelessly open their doors onto others cars, and those who miraculously open there doors onto your car even after being asked not to.
