Honestly, I wouldn't describe your pillow drama as a bigger nor smaller problem than the chocolate yoghurt catastrophe.
I feel bad because my girlfriend spent money she doesnt have on something i dont need to make me feel better and now im worried m going to upset her = 15 year moron that wants his mum to jump of a cliff for buying the wrong yoghurt - I see the balance there.

I had to google it after martin said it.

I get it but Its all about relativity, what affects your day to day life is of importance to you. I am one of the few people that is constantly aware of the suffering that goes on in the world because its what i study, its what i want to work in etc. But most people aren't aware or don't have constant exposure.

But that pillow thing is something that im gonna have to deal with in 4 weeks and for 4 nights im gonna be uncomfortable and that is something that is going to happen to me and be of relative importance regardless of what someone else is going through, its still gonna piss me off.

If this 'first world problem' thing is gonna exist then it surely should be about something that is of complete unimportance but of which someone is making a fuss. I saw a kid on my facebook a few days post a rant about his mum buying milk chocolate yoghurt rather than dark chocolate yoghurt.

Kid deserves a kick in the cunt.
:lol:

I view it in a comedic light to minimalize the actual stupidity exhibited by those like that kid on FB you mentioned.

Went to see if my new ID was ready, because I lost it a while ago and it's still not ready. :sergio: It wouldn't bother me as much if I didn't have to deal with all the proletariat in the place waiting for their IDs. I truly fucking hate people, gah. Now I gotta make my mom call her friends over at the registry office.

I'm 20 years old and I still haven't washed clothes. The washer is a complete mystery to me :p
I remember the first time I tried to use a washing machine and saw the throw bleach here sign so I threw bleach. :sergio: But still doesn't excuse your laziness. :p


Dude -- your gf made an awesome gesture there. Give her major props and try to engender that kind of thoughtfulness in yourself to keep it reciprocal.
However, white lies as they may be, pretending that you have a love of 47 pillows at night isn't the right solution either. Particularly because it becomes an issue of honesty. Better to set a precedent of being honest now than creating a mutual culture where each of you sometimes holds back on things.
I was going to add in all those things to my original post as well but didn't bother in the end. I completely agree.

I completely respect that she is an amazing person to have done such a thoughtful and kind thing and i have thanked her prefusely for it, and I too believe in open honesty - I see no reason to lie to anyoone and I have nothing to hide and I wouldn't get myself into a position where I have something to hide (other than like her birthday present). I will just find a way to be comfy with her and the mass of pillows.

Shes polish, not russian and she'd kill you for saying that (apparently calling the Polish the basterd child of Germany and Russia = slap...who knew?)
I didn't know her nationality. I was just thinking of all those "In Russia the (blank) (blanks) you" memes.

I actually have a bit of polish ancestry. On the gypsy side.

Of course it is. The NWO is contaminating your water supply with chemicals that makes people dumber! That's what they're doing! :scared:
And let me say that Indian airport security procedures have it in spades over their U.S. equivalents. They're not concerned with people taking off their shoes or pulling out their laptops, security theater style. They profile, they add multiple checks, they wand liberally, and they don't obsess over trivialities.
