We have it sooooooooo good compared to 2/3 of the planet.
That's why I get out into nature as often as possible. You get dirty and rained on and sore but you find that out there its so peaceful that despite those things nobody complains.
Too much time in the city leads to creating teeny tiny first world problems and fixations on objectively inconsequential ####.

uh. no, it's the gear grinder thread, for complaints big or small.
Yeah, all know we do have it good compared to others, doesn't mean we can't bitch about things that affect our actual lives.
you know what? My wife and I decided this week we had to park the car. Only to be used for emergencies or doctors appointments. We just can't afford to use the car anymore. can't afford the wear and tear and especially the gas. $1.90 gas just put us over the top. we're done. Can't afford to drive in a city set up for driving. it makes me sad, and grinds my gears and makes me feel like a failure as a husband and father.
Know what isn't going to help? Someone telling me that many people have it worse and I need perspective.
Going for a walk in nature isn't going to make my problems go away.
You don't want complaints? stay out of the freaking grind my gears thread and hang in the what makes me happy thread.
Hey ice cream OP, they are loud and annoying. and expensive.
