Ok, let’s take a break from all the serious problems out there and complain about our little insignificant inconveniences.

I’ll start - my car is in the bodyshop (a guy backed into me in a parking lot) and the loaner they gave me doesn’t have a heated steering wheel!

If you think looting is bad wait until I tell you about civil forfeiture.

Wow. Heated steering wheel huh?

My FWP is figuring out how to design large threads that will 3D print for a "product" with a very limited customer base and that is most likely going to cost more in R&D then I will ever recover.

I am feeling sorry for myself for not owning one of those neat spring loaded snow shovels Steve told us about. Just can't justify it so late in the season and when I already have so many other shovels.

My central air is making me cold and I'm too lazy to get up to change it.

Maybe if I hadn't been sick as a dog for the last nine hours I'd feel differently.

My violin is of better quality than I expected for the price.
The problem is not with the violin.

It’s been so long since I’ve been able to get together with my ukulele group, that I’m losing the calluses on my fingertips of my left hand.

Anyone else find themselves humming “we shall overcome” as you read this thread?

We keep putting seed in the "squirrel-proof" bird feeder and the squirrels have been chowing down on it. Nothing is squirrel-proof... only squirrel resistant. So, we bought a bag of raw unsalted peanuts and filled a pan on the ground. The little buggers ate or walked off with about a quart of peanuts in the last 24 hours.
