I'm pretty sure we've had a thread like this once, and I think we should again.

Life. It is hard - too hard sometimes. some lives are even harder than others. You buy a frozen pizza, and it does not fit in the oven. You spend ages growing them flowers in the garden only to have the neighbour's sheep break in and eat them all. Vent Your First World frustrations!

This morning after shower, I dried my beard using a towel, and now it's all bunched up in a ball, refusing to hang straight down! I ought to shave the damned thing right off, see if I don't! :rant1:

Yes. Mirrors. Alerting The Asmo to the unsightly shape of His Divine Beard!  >:(

No WiFi coverage is the obvious one.

The Asmo's bathroom. Spottily covered. He still manages to watch YouTube from His throne, but over 5G.

He has all the First World problems, The Asmo does. :sadnod:

I think you should see a doctor about that.

Trouble is, The Asmo is what passes for a Internet doctor. As such, His own Internet is... Like a mechanic's car or cobbler's shoes. Spotty.

The water pressure on your nice clean water supply is down a bit.

its always a problem where i live. i have three miles of dirt before i get to a paved road, and the road is often not ploughed. ive been stuck a mile from the house before and had to leave the truck there fro days

last winter i had to pull people out on a chain three times

other times its mud. or the road is underwater. or there is no road anymore.

You know, you and a certain Eastern european nation seem to have broadly the same issue there. :smilenod:

The Asmo, He suggests a few tonnes of decadent Capitalist gravel, preferably on a bed of some larger rocks. That, or a belted sort of vehicle... Might be cheaper and less aggravating in the long run.
