Mine is that one of my Tesco Chicken Caesar wraps had NO Caesar dressing on it!!! While the other one had obscene amounts on it. Per MN rules I'm not simply livid, but Beyond Livid about this.

So what's Your First World Problem Today?

Also BlackAmericanoNoSugar, sorry you are going through such a troubling time- instant coffee- yuck!

Thishatisnotmine · 15/06/2018 13:19

I really can't decide which reusable coffee cup to buy. And them in what colour!

BohemianLikeMe · 15/06/2018 13:25

The avocado in my salmon teriyaki salad from Wasabi has gone brown.

The free filter coffee machine at work is broken, so I have had to pay for a substandard coffee at the cafe downstairs.

Today it's a bad headache that won't go, going to get my babies from school, have a bath and snuggle down in the hope that it'll kindly bugger off soon

The charger for my phone will only stretch so far; meaning that I have to stay lying on my left side while I have a half hour lie down before picking the kids up

MuddyForestWalks · 15/06/2018 16:01

DS has smashed my phone screen. It was in a protective case and screen cover and he's still managed to fuck it. The screen repair quote is ridiculous.

PaddingtonBearHardStare · 15/06/2018 19:01

I binged watched 10 episodes of The Resident in two days and they aren't available on demand so now I have to wait until next Tuesday to watch the next one

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 15/06/2018 19:17

This is more of a first world solution than a first world problem. I was tidying the kitchen after dinner when I needed to fart, but DS has a friend over and they were both sitting in the next room and would hear (and piss themselves laughing at me). So I filled my glass with ice from the American style fridge. I went for the ground up version not whole cubes, which makes a hell of a noise, and farted with discretion. Grin

ItsNachoCheese · 15/06/2018 19:29

blackamericanonosugar that is sheer genius Grin

HarryDaylight · 15/06/2018 19:34

I couldn't defrost the cote de beouf in time for dinner as it's so big. 😣😣😣

HarryDaylight · 15/06/2018 20:31

And I ran out of Waitrose Indian Tonic Water and had to make do with utter shite slimline shweppes tonic water that the village store bafflingly sells. 😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣

mumof2sarah · 15/06/2018 20:36

@HarryDaylight can I ask what that is you're defrosting? I've never heard of it x

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 15/06/2018 20:38

I grated my finger on the Microplane. Not only does it hurt like fuck, but I’ve also contaminated the last of the Parmesan.

Smellyjo · 15/06/2018 20:38

DH trying to be helpful bought pampers baby wipes today. I cannot abide the smell Sad

HarryDaylight · 15/06/2018 21:10

mumof2sarah I was defrosting a bone in rib eye steak. I bought it in an Ocado flash sale at 50% off so I wasn't really bragging. 🙂

mumof2sarah · 15/06/2018 21:12

@HarryDaylight ah right; I'm so oblivious to things like that lol. Hope you enjoy it when it is defrosted x

SluttyButty · 15/06/2018 21:47

Today's first world problem is that I'd not cooked my green beans correctly. They had a squeak!

Wanttomakemincepies · 15/06/2018 21:54

@BlackAmericanoNoSugar that is beyond a problem, more of an emergency. Coffee is my thing too and I hope you get hold of some decent beans soon.

bridgetosomewhere · 15/06/2018 21:57

I went to Tesco instead of Home bargains and the mint magnums were £3.40 compared to £1.79 but I bought them anyway as it was raining and I didn’t want to get wet again.

Seriously tho. Tesco are so expensive!

Lellikelly26 · 15/06/2018 21:59

My cleaner is away for 3 weeks and I have to clean my own house

PunkrockerGirl59 · 15/06/2018 22:02

Bloody world cup football replaced the Chase at 5pm on ITV.
It's nothing short of a national outrage.

ohamIreally · 15/06/2018 22:30

The soft phone on my laptop didn't work as I had it set to dial from my desk phone so I had to lift the receiver and hold it to my ear.

LeighaJ · 19/06/2018 10:48

I have yummy food in the fridge but I'm too cosy in bed to get up and get it. Blush

I'm wearing slippers, but the tops of my feet are cold. It's too far to walk upstairs and get my boot-style slippers.

The DTs want separate birthday parties instead of a joint one. But still on the same day, one morning and one afternoon, and with shared friends coming to both of them
