First World Problems: post yours!

[torontogal12]

Holy crow! I've been taking the TTC for 17 years and I've never seen someone pull that garbage

Sometimes they don't have a pass or money, but want to go a couple of stops instead of walking and they're hoping that the driver will just say go on! One guy on Tuesday, he got on, told the driver that he'd lost his pass, and asked if he could let him on AND give him a transfer. Driver was like, I'll give you a drive but can't give you a transfer. So he got on and ed and complained for 20 minutes about how the driver wouldn't give him a transfer. Hey, he let you go partway there for free, get over it! He could have just left you on the curb!

Dont know if this was mentioned already but - walking on slippery ice!! grrr. I almost took a fall yesterday.

glad you didn't actually fall. whew!

I wiped out yesterday...the box I was carrying flew about 10 feet and it all felt very dramatic-thank God I wasn't hurt!

So glad you did not get hurt

I fell yesterday and am now limping because I dislocated my kneecap and I haven't done that in months! I'm so annoyed. I've put in a service request on 311 because I'm tired of having to walk on ice, especially now that my knee is wonky.

That would be me for sure if I fell, the knees always get the worst of it.

Can everyone now try to imagine how tough it is to try and deliver mail in these conditions? Hug your carrier today!! ( well tomorrow, it is late now)

Maybe he wanted to sell the transfer and make money.

Recently, I was waiting for the bus and saw a guy finish eating a bag of chips and then tuck the empty bag in the security window grate of a business. The bus comes and he gets on, waves both his hands indicating he has no money, and goes to sit at the back of the bus. I also take a seat near the back, and then observe him take out his smart phone. What a loser!!!! This guy was no teenager, either. Someone in his 20s! When he got off at his stop, he met up with some girl!!! I hope karma catches up with him and he gets an STD or something.

I saw my carrier yesterday and she was very much pregnant! I wanted to hug her and tell her "you go, girl!!!"

So many good deals and not enough money to buy them all.

Oh yeah, that's definitely an example of how karma should work.

*Right now, I have too much change in my wallet and makes it hard to get the zipper closed.

*I have a list of recipes I want to make, but I never seem to get around to making them; then I feel like I'm eating the same things over and over again because I am...

We are in the same place when it comes to eating the same thing over and over so we have a goal each week to try one new recipe.

My first world problem -- SDM was sold out of Evian water, and I don't like Dasani or Aquafina.....so I went to another one.

Got mud splatters on the back of my favourite pair of light coloured expensive pants They've been in the wash twice now and the mud has not come out! I now have them in the wash for the third time after letting them sit with detergent on the mud stains for awhile to see if this helps. I'll be quite upset if the stains don't come out this round...

try a sunlight bar (you can buy them at walmart) and a little bit of scrubbing will take it out(i'm a fan of a tooth brush), i've gotten grease, oil, mustard, kids paint out of fabric with sunlight bars

Thankfully after wash round three the stains are light enough to not be noticeable unless you are looking...I'm hoping after a few more wears and washes that they will just eventually go away.

I bought a dress and I'm in between size M and L. M is too small, L is too big.

Which one do I keep?

Resolve. Green bottle. Works every time
