Problems with Problems

  1. Being told that your expensive car repairs aren't "real" problems, because they happened to have occurred on the same day as a major world event.
  2. Feeling like you can't actually share your frustrations with anyone, because people in the "real" world have worse problems and yours shouldn't matter.
  3. Being righteously angry that a tire for your jogging stroller costs 1/3 as much as the whole stroller (and then feeling guilty about your righteous anger).
These, my friends, are middle class problems.
