So, I thought it would be amusing if we shared our first world problems on a periodic basis.

As of right now, I'm suffering because I have a dutch apple pie, but no vanilla ice cream.

I'm so full I can't be bothered to get up and make a cup of tea.

Also, I'm tired from playing video games.

FML

I can't decide between buying a Sicarian battle tank along with IA2E2 or a group, a Shadowsword or some grav cents.

I'm fat because I eat comfort food.

I've bought so many plastic and resin toy army men I couldn't possibly paint them all if that was all I did for the next few years, and I've lost interest in playing the game associated with them.

I never liked the whole "first world problems" thing... but what the heck:

I got all these awesome Christmas presents while I was with my family for Christmas, but I will have to ship them back across the country to my apartment after I go home again.

Extra Robotech rule book....
Every DVD known to man to have the word "Godzilla" in it (prank gift)
My dog eat the crotch from my self brought Xmas present Affliction surf shorts

Wombat though pretty much got us currently beat

When I get chilly, instead of putting on extra layers of clothing, I switch on a little electric fan operated heater and turn my bedroom into a sauna.

Then I get hot, and open a window.

Got a PS4 for Christmas, PSN has been down all day.

Which is really starting to piss me off. My kids have gone to bed, I want to play some Dragon Age, but I can't because of some feth head hackers.

Too many games in my Steam library to play. (at least a hundred).

Playstation and XBox networks have been interfered with since last night. These guys (Lizard Squad) are responsible, supposedly.

I have too many video games on Steam (over two hundred), and it's really hard for me to decide which one I should start playing, so I ultimately just go back to Dark Souls. =(

Ouch Must be PC gamers

Edit

As I go back to putting Battle Pods together and watching Solomon Kane on Netflix

With a backlog of 500 or so unpainted miniatures to get through, I fret when I lose ebay auctions for yet more miniatures.

That's okay... come and play Diablo3 with me on Battle.net...

:waves hand over:

I got a load of good board games for Christmas, but I have no one to play them with, as my family isn't the board gaming type.

I bought a whole bunch of games on steam, including Civ 5 + all the DLC for $40.

I can't play them until the middle of January...

My current comp can't handle them and I'm building a new one in the middle of January

I'm cold, and I keep thinking I have a chance with someone because I'm not sure if they're sending out "let's see how things go" signs, or "I'm too shy to say I'm not interested after perhaps accidentally hinting that I was" ones, but hope it's the former.

It doesn't help that I'm on a sort of semi-romance-y binge with films and writing at the moment, either. >_>

I also want a drink, but the past two nights there's been a large spider guarding the kitchen, so I can't get one.

Being asked by my mom to kill spiders.

Having to wait till Jan 27th to get GTA V on Steam.

I have to light my cigars with tens instead of hundred dollar bills now.

Wait no that's a lie.

I need a new winter hat.

Same, 281 at last count, most of which I've never even touched. Hell, a lot of them I wasn't even aware that I had, meaning I probably bought them while drunk.

Too many games to play, too many toy soldiers to paint.

Those sound like legitimately sort of gakky problems. I mean, I know someone in a poor third world country might not even be able to own a car or get a higher education, but that still seems pretty serious compared to us jerkasses complaining about having too many video games to play.

Speaking of which:

I'm making a Giantdad build in Dark Souls and going to the Tomb of the Giants to kill Nito so I could get the Mask of the Father was really annoying.

The struggle is real.

I ate too much food yesterday and now think what I prepared for boxing day will mostly go to waste.

Also got too many new books for xmas and now don't know what to start reading.

My Brazilian wife needs to learn Dutch to get a resident permit in the Netherlands so she can move there with our baby, but I've learned Portuguese much too quickly for her to actually have to talk in Dutch to me.

Having to read the forums on the tiny screen of my iphone while laying in bed because I can't be bothered to move the 3ft to my desk and use my pc.

My dishwasher has stopped working.

Got Harley parts to put on the bike and its like.... cold outside in the garage ...I have a heater but that means going to get more kerosene ... the wife is at work and I just do not want to go out there.

How old is the baby? We are raising out daughter bilingual so I'm only talking German to her while the wife handles English. Talking Dutch to you baby might help.

Other than that the only real option is to (potentially) be an ass and only talk Dutch to your wife as well, that would force her to step up her game.

Its always a shame when someones wife dies........

My paints have dried out from lack of use and time.

Ok, I got so little tie to play all the games i got until it is back to university.

I've eaten one too many Ferrero Rocher and now feel a little ill.

Too many games to play in my Steam and GOG libraries. Too many toy soldiers that have yet to be assembled, much less painted.

Also, I am surprised I am the first to post this:

Won't someone please think of the people with too many games to play on their Steam account?

Looks like snow tomorrow, might mean a miserable shopping trip for me tomorrow.

Ate a massive dinner. Now I'm constipated. FML.

I could only have a rosé with my cheese and biscuits tonight instead of a red. Worse still, M&S had run out of quince paste on my last visit.

I honestly prefer being constipated to having it shoot out like a river whenever it feels like it. To me, a solid stool--no matter how annoying or painful--is always better than diarrhoea, because at least A) I have more choice in when it comes out, and B) it's going to be solid. I've found that there's nothing more able to deflate self-confidence than a liquid crap.

I'm not very good at skin tones, so headless catchans and cannot decide between them and my marines, or metal arab style guard

I am guilty of that. I have major gamer ADD. Just recently i paused making two armies for Epic 40k to convert and paint a pirate squadron for XWing. Alongside that are at least four incomplete armies for 40k and a slew of minis for games by small garage-level companies, like Zynvaded. And I still have to play the $300 of Diskwars (the pre warhammer version) that I bought for $25 at GenCon.

I'm despairing leaving work and going home, as I am out of alcoholic beverages after the holiday and all I have to drink is an endless supply of clean water.

Until I go to the liquor store. Possibly on the way home.

Had 7 rum and cokes (4 of which were doubles) and 3 white Russians yesterday, totally regretted it.

Been holding a bottle of Devils Cut for five months to open this New Year Eve

I've fallen, and I can't get up.

Spends all night playing video games. Wakes up,at 3pm. Complains there aren't enough hours in the day.

So your first world problem is: Inebriated one click retail with subsequent amnesia.

While you get full marks for decadence, dogma, I think you have got First World Problems meme wrong, that's quite an issue you have.

6 weeks now . Just starting to wave his arms and getting his hand-eye coordination going. It'll be a while yet before we are really comfortable putting him on a trans-atlantic flight, but in the meantime we have an absolutely enormous stack of paperwork to get ready, and I have to go back to work at the end of January to keep paying for two homes...
Plus, the Dutch immigration laws are positively Draconian. She is really trying, bless her, so suddenly stopping to talk to her seems a really d*ck move. I do talk dutch to the baby, though.

That's a first world problem of mine.

I can't decide which Forgeworld models to use for my IG army.
Also, we had way too much food for this Christmas, I am afraid we won't be able to eat all of it before it spoils.

I don't what I want to eat, pizza, steak or fish. Oh the inhumanity!

Seeing a game I really want for PS4, going into the one store that has it in stock..... Only to find out that it's mandatory that I have PS+ active to play it...

I can't decide which girl I want to date and which toy soldiers I want to buy next

TRUFAXXX: I didn't cry at my father's funeral.

Too much blow and hookers.

Seriously, how am I meant to get through it all?

I have a brand new Playstation 4 and a 40" HDTV and I've lost all interest in using them because I played the living gak out of it whilst bedridden for a few days.

Went to see first showing of a movie and only had fifties in my wallet.

Cashier gave me the death stare...

Everquest has pulled me back....AGAIN

My iPod looks too much like my Samsung Galaxy s5 Mini - but only my iPod has decent games.

Cooked a home made beef madras. Didn't enjoy it. Ate a big slice of Belgian fudge cake to console myself.

Ate too much chinese, topped it off with sweets. Now feel sick.

On another note, I rather enjoy this shameless complaining

I got my laptop back from Dell, and because I'm at my parent's house for the winter break, I'm getting an average of about 50kb/s to re-download my games.

Ah. I have felt your pain. Truly, this is the most tragic of all first world problems in this thread. Although, DSL is better than dial-up. I thank Baby Jesus that my days of 56k are long gone.

Town recently got a Popeye's Chicken. The lines have been so bad I have been unable to get any yet.

My hobby room is overflowing with unbuilt Warhammer, and it's becoming a real problem. Don't know what the hell I'm going to do, I'm out of space for all this stuff.

I also hate breaking BRAND NEW HIGH-QUALITY shoes in. Wide ass feet crew checking in, and on top of that, they're new gym shoes so it's making my alone-time not very enjoyable at the minute.

Happy New Year everyone, btw.

I just got an iPhone 5S, and I'm having a bitch of a time "recycling" the 4S that preceded it. Apple has been giving me the run-around (offered to take it after I bought 5S, then today refused me and told me the other people lied to me). Apple has been consistently lying to me for the past 2 weeks. I'm pissed off, as I'm sitting on $105 from the hopeful return of it that they make me jump through 55 hoops to get to.

I found a car I really want to buy (a BMW 3 series) but I can't make it to the auction tomorrow.

Now I feel like an ass for pointing this out. I guess a real problem would be I have been vacationing in Sweden but, the camera lens on my phone smashed two weeks in right before going to the beautiful north.

That's too bad. Sweden is a beautiful country. Most of my mom's side of the family is Swedish, at least to some degree.

Im currently in a large triple dorm room with a balcony and alone.
Both my roommates moved out so for awhile its just me.
And I dont know If I will like my new roommates if I get some

I wonder why they left?

My Mrs keeps cutting the bread at an angle. So when I cut a nice straight slice next time it's all jaggedy and is thicker at one end than the other.

These are not first world problems, they are genuine issues with potentially serious problems down the line.

I keep getting toy soldiers, and I'm collecting another army, and I haven't taken the time to play... Now I want a Geek Chic gaming table... I have so much stuff to paint and build if I live to see it all done I'll be surprised.

I may have a solution to you're problem dear Sir! Perhaps this could save you the leaving bit.

Alternatively, there's recently been an amazing invention called... wait for it... sliced bread!

I've heard it's the best thing since... uhh...

Im still not sure if this is a first world problem or not. But I just found out all my friends I made last quarter are not coming back because they failed.
I mean, I know flunking out of college is worse, but I miss my friends.

I keep not getting better at drawing.
and I'm trying to find some old friends of mine, twins from old school, but they don't seem to exist anymore.

Not on BookFace =/= dead.

Have you checked down the back of the sofa?

Not not sure about the drawing; have you tried tracing others peoples drawings and pretending they're yours?

Played my Tau yesterday in Apoc. Six on six. Watch someone Xmas Imperial Knight assault an Apocalypse formation Necron Phlanx (whatever) who also received 100 new Necron warriors to add to his already 100 plus Necron warriors. Was one funny situation. Until their Warlord played the Ultimate Sacrifice card on the Imperial Knight

Oh and I was that guy who threw four Riptides and six Broadsides on the table and became "One" in my corner of the table. In my bubble of nine Void Shield Generators. Also I used my Vakyrie's/Battle Pods I received for Xmas as my Crisis suits (Nine total) Three fighter Three Guardians Three Battleloids

I was the one who in all innocence said "He should charge the Knight in for Shenanigans"

Lol, it was supposed to be an unleavened bread joke

Well, this is a bit of a pickle.

My fineline pen ran out of ink. it was so annoying that I actually posted about it on facebook.

You cut to fine a line on the ink supply left in the pen itself. I'm somewhat in a jam myself being my White Ceramite paint pot is dried again.

I'm thirsty, but I feel like having some soda or iced tea or something rather than water and I can't decide if it's worth it to drive to the store two block from the house. I mean, what if they're out of the particular flavor I want? That would just make the whole venture a complete waste of time.

My only real complaint with the old design was the constant auto-play video on every story, which was even worse when you opened a few tabs of stories to read.

The ice froze my passenger door closed yesterday and I can't tell if I broke the door trying to open it because of said frozen parts. Now I'm a bit upset.

maybe I should start wearing thai-dyed clothes and get dreadlocks (actually I am trying to grow my hair to be long enough for a pony tail( because my unkle has a pony tail and it's awesome, but I think it took him three years to grow))

One of my uncles has shrapnel in him and he can feel weather like that. Kinda weird.

After my surgery, I've grown more susceptible to the cold. My ankle begins to throb when the temp gets real cold. The incision site will tingle as well when there are significant changes in pressure.

It gets kinda annoying.

I found a new webcomic I like, but I spend too much time reading it to catch up that I didn't have time to play any computer games last night.

Also, I went grocery shopping last night, but didn't get anything to eat so we went to taco bell for dinner on the way home.

I just ate 450 grams of steak, I want a beer but don't want to get up.

Yeah I had that sort of stuff in notebooks as a kid, also had ideas for starships and lazers so... yeah people assumed (and rightly so) it was for whatever story I cared more about then school.
My mother always maintained the belief (and its true) of my largely pacifist nature.
Someone who refuses to kill insects, and instead release them... I mean that says a lot about someone, really without anyone really realizing it.
All the fighting scenes from my book are comically anime-ish...
It's the sex scenes I'd not really want anyone to read lol (there's a lot and they usually involve more then two people lol)

There's a first world problem "I don't want to try and publish a book under my real name because my family might see it and read the part where there's a foursome where it gets danger-close to incest"
Yeah.

I am happy to announce that I am immune to meat sweats. Never get them. Also, I live in a Civilized country, we don't use imperial scum measurements. Hell, we don't even use pints, I just drink bottles.

getting new pens and batteries tomorrow.
I aven't been able to sleep the last four nights so my eyes look like red ping pong balls and the bags make me look like the little girl from the ring. also, my desk lamp broke. not fully broken, but it's only working at thirty percent. and because its LED, (harsh light is better for drawing I find) it is only light enough to annoy me but not enough to assist my artistry. my girlfriend is being confusing, and its 3:30 in the morning and I have had like five cups of green teas and sleep ISN'T WORKING! I'm also incredibly hungry because I at nothing today.

All my minis are still unpainted.

My cassettes are slowly falling apart. It's really sad.

So...
What if you actually are a phsycopath but are just in self-denial about it? That you don't really know it yet, but subconciously you are plotting to attack your school?
Nah, just kidding Parents can be annoying like that. I don't know if all mother are like that, but my mother asked me that as well.
My parents also happen to be convinced I might be gay, no matter how many times I tell them the opposite or have a girlfriend. "Oh, but you never bring them home" "Yes, but it is always temporary, you never have anything lasting. Are you sure you are not uncertain about..." "MOM!!! Stop it!"

In any case, you could try to confront your mother about why she asked you that. You might get a good conversation going.

Don't stop eating, just eat healthier. People on diets tend to cut calories to the point of being counterproductive.

The sidewalks by work have been cleared of snow, and I just want to walk through some fresh untouched snow.

Ehh.. if the Aussie military is anything like the US military, they'll take a "fat body".... up to a point. There is a margin they'll allow because people do often times lose a bunch of weight in basic training/boot camp. So that can matter, and will "seriously" affect his career path, should he still decide to go military.

Ensis......its Chub Scout. The term "Fat Body" is degrading

Man, I hope I don't have to drive in this bad weather to get my pregnant wife to the hospital for a ton of high-quality medical care that is nearly completely covered by her insurance, followed by a ton of quality pediatric care that is completely covered.

You know, because first I have to clean off the car.

I've also been trying to figure out if I'm going to be denied the chance due to my sturgeweber syndrome.

Agree to removing that electricity is included, and then set up hydroelectric water wheels in your sinks and run them 24/7. You might also be able to set up some sort of garbage burning furnace outside and harvest electricity from that as well.

Yeah a general rule of thumb is if it's a warmer of some kind, you'll probably want it. We had a bottle warmer that was just awesome and we used it with both kids. Mostly those things just make life easier.

I'm not quite at that level, but between cleats, running shoes, cross-trainers, dress shoes, basketball shoes, boots, and street shoes I have 43 pairs. Most of them have their own purposes, but I burn through running shoes very quickly and the old ones pile up after a while.

I have a thin window to paint: after the morning coffee, but before the evening drinks. Although I wonder if I put a shot of rum/bourbon in my morning coffee, if the alcohol would counteract the jitters? Or stick to drinks in the evening that use caffeinated mixers?

(I don’t actually drink that much, but some days this is a real problem, and the caffeine shakes do cut down on my painting time as well)

Im kind of the same way... only I still have my old boots from the army (most of them anyway). When I get to where I can no longer wear a pair of running shoes out running, I'll use them for cutting the grass in the yard, and then eventually just toss them... I don't really hold on to them too much longer after theyre no longer "running" shoes.

I have... a pair of winter boots, a pair of rain boots (both which are 10 years old) a really beaten up pair of running shoes.
A pair of workboots my dad didn't want so I took, a pair of sandels I bought at Giant Tiger, and soon I'll have some sort of Lolita shoes.

I think I need a few more shoes.

I have a pair of boots which I've been neglecting, and a pair of 'smart' shoes which have since taken over being 'all occasions' footwear by dint of being slip-ons and therefore quick to put on and take off. With my boots I need to spend a minute or two doing the laces, and I don't have time for that sort of thing! I am a busy man! Sod all doesn't do itself, you know!

After herding cats for a few rounds the teams switched up a little and I we did well for a while. Then in the last game for some reason it felt as if every time we'd kill someone, or move on an objective there were always two more to take the place of the dead. Then I checked, the server had it so every joining player ended up on the enemy team Outnumbered 2:1 and we lost by 2 points
