Three kids were up late in their tree-house chatting.

The first kid says, "Last night, Daddy made me touch his snake!"

The second kid says, "That's nothing, last night, Daddy made me kiss his snake!"

The last kid sighs and says, "I wish my dad was a reptile enthusiast. He just fucks me in the arse."

Definition of a first world problem.

A kid your age in Somalia could probably tell you stories about dodging genocide, murderous street gangs, food shortages, the threat of becoming collateral damage or a child soldier in never ending conflicts and terror attacks, rampant disease, rape, human trafficking, having to commute in a landmine ridden country, frequent power outages, forced labor camps and a complete and total lack of clean water.

And you're bitching about paperwork that may lead you to your dream job, some great experiences and a better life?

Perspective kiddo.

Actually i used to think like you do Ghenjis but i find it rather easy and useless to state bigger problems with the intent to simply banalize one's own problems. Not having the worst life conditions in the world doesn't take away your right to consider having problems or having things that pisses you off. As a personnal way of thinking im just like you but i find it rude to judge how other people than ourselves think and react to situations. Everyone's reality is different and it is in our best interest to try to help and support one another.

Basically what im saying is dont make something sound ridiculous or childish just because YOU would think of this situation differently. NO offense just wanted to say my two cents. :D

None taken.

It's probably something I inherited from my mom who would tell me stories about how when she was little in Mexico she didn't even get to go to school, (and she liked school) she had to work all day. Which consequentially made me stop complaining about going to school.

That said, breaking up a pity party with a kick in the pants is a method of support. It's probably just not the most appreciated. If I came off as an asshole, my apologies. Not my intent to antagonize.
 
NAh i just tought it was a bit rude. Honestly, by the way you wrote your comment, you looked miles away from being an asshole. Anyways like i said i think like you about myself. Im not the kinda person who's gonna complain since i know pretty well that even tough i have my problems also, im far from having the kind of problems you enumerated above. Its important to understand how comfortable we are here. Lot of people aren't really aware of that which is why they make a bug fuss over some irrelevant things. So for that props to you. :D

Really glad you didnt take it personnaly :D
 
OK you got me :S Can't find anything about that really. I guess its just another exemple of how English isnt that great of a language ? X_- ( trolling here im no racist ok )

On a side note, im a french canadian i come from quebec in canada but our french and the european french are sooooo different. For exemple: French people from france when they park their cars in a parking lot will say : je stationne ( french for park ) dans un parking lot and in quebec we say : je me park dans un stationnement ( parking lot in french) .

I have a friend that came here to study and believe me he still doesnt understand half a word of what im saying when we talk. :D
