If we didn't have First World problems to complain about, what would we complain about? And let's face it, we have to have something to complain about. I just got back from going out to breakfast at a nice coffeeshop and they raised the price of coffee to $3!!!! Can you effin believe it? $3 for a cup of coffee, a drink made by beans grown thousands of miles away, shipped to a coffee roaster, ground, and then shipped to the coffeehouse where a low-paid employee had to pour water over them. And for that they want $3????
