Firstworldproblems

The Mayor of Maxwell Street | Avery Cunningham

😫😫😫 Y‘know the worst part of being a mood reader? When your #botm box with the book you literally just found out about and want to read. right. this. second. is bouncing around your state 😫😫😫 Why did it depart and arrive at the same facility twice?? #firstworldproblems

TEArificbooks I had a book ordered on Amazon from my local warehouse. Supposed to be same day delivery because it literally just had to cross town. It got put on the wrong truck. It went to another state bounced around came back to town got out on the wrong truck again. Went to Canada. Took three weeks to get it. 2mo

monkeygirlsmama Ugh! That sucks. Hope it arrives soon!! 2mo

monkeygirlsmama @TEArificbooks WTF?! Wow 😮 2mo

Aims42 @TEArificbooks Oh No!! That sucks, I am so sorry that happened, that is like a 15/10 on the frustration scale 😤😡 2mo

Aims42 @monkeygirlsmama Thank you! My control freak self and patience self do not do well with unexpected shipping updates 😆 Can I just pick it up? I‘m 20 mins away from the Glendale Heights facility lol 2mo

monkeygirlsmama @Aims42 Right?! If they continue to delay you should contact them and ask that. LoL 2mo

Aims42 @monkeygirlsmama Lol, I‘m sure they would love that 🤣 The USPS probably cringes when they see the deluge of blue boxes coming in lol 2mo

Tamra The routes are really nuts sometimes. If I mail something to an address in my town, it leaves town to be processed and then comes back. That just seems stupid to me. 😜 2mo

Aims42 @Tamra Lol! That does seem backward 😂 2mo

TEArificbooks Well now my BOTM is also having an adventure. It arrived to my town after 6 stops in six different states and now it is going backwards along those stops 2mo

Aims42 @TEArificbooks What is up with that?!? Do you have an estimated delivery date? I still don‘t, which is odd, usually when it gets to my state I get that. Ugh. Soooooo frustrating!! 2mo

TEArificbooks @Aims42 it says Feb 5 but I will believe it when I see it. 2mo

Aims42 @TEArificbooks Lol, for real! 😂 2mo

Aims42 @TEArificbooks Okay, I have a delivery estimate of tomorrow 🫤🤞 Did yours arrive?? 2mo

TEArificbooks @aims42 no but it is making it way back to my town 2mo

Aims42 @TEArificbooks Of course it is 🤦‍♀️🤪 Hopefully it can skip a few stops since it‘s already stopped there once already lol 2mo

Book haul. I had some gift cards to use up. Book shopping really is hard. The anxiety is real. I want all the books but my wallet, small house and spouse have limits. What if i choose wrong? #decisionfatigue #iprefermylibrary #firstworldproblems

Tamra Looking forward to your thoughts on Notes on an Execution. 11mo

jlhammar I think you made great choices! Clock Dance, Unlikely Animals and Notes are all so good. Hope you enjoy! 11mo

I'm Frustrated | Elizabeth Crary

What the f—- is going on with Litsy? Seems that I can only post through the website and not through the app. Why can‘t the developers just put out a statement on one of their social media accounts and just say that the app isn‘t working properly?!?! #firstworldproblems

Bklover Me too! It‘s a good thing I checked so I don‘t post everything three times! 1y

TorieStorieS Thanks for sharing about the issues- wish I had seen this before repeating my post! 😵‍💫 1y

Kristin_Reads Mine has been acting word too 1y

readingjedi I had problems recently as well. I had to delete the app then download it again. 1y

DogMomIrene Yesterday my posts took a few minutes to process, but I didn‘t see any of my comments showing up. Even looked like my ❤️s were going back and forth. I was looking to see if I missed an update. 1y

Gen Z Effect: The Six Forces Shaping the Future of Business | Tom Koulopoulos, Dan Keldsen

Did you see this @Megabooks ? 🤣😂

Kimberlone I love the thumbs up emoji!! Literally my second most used emoji! 2y

Jemgirl2014 I read something similar maybe about a year ago. They want us to use ☠️instead of 😂 and other such nonsense. Plus, they said skinny jeans and side parts are out. It‘s so funny and fascinating to me. 😅 2y

wanderinglynn Good grief. #firstworldproblems 👍🏻👍🏻 🤣 2y

MicheleinPhilly “Why nobody should be reading the Daily Mail.” 😉 2y

vivastory @Kimberlone It's in my top 3, for sure! 2y

vivastory @Jemgirl2014 Absolutely nonsense! 2y

vivastory @wanderinglynn 😂 😂 2y

vivastory @MicheleinPhilly 👍 😁 2y

TrishB My fave 👍🏻 2y

TrishB And @MicheleinPhilly is also correct! 2y

Jemgirl2014 @vivastory Right?! LOL! 2y

RaeLovesToRead Oh maaaaan! I use these... 🙈😬😭 Must be getting old. (I was literally about to use the monkey one again now!) (And again!) 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈 2y

RaeLovesToRead Although my fave emojis are: 🥰😄😊🤨😅 Are any of these cool? Are we still saying cool? 2y

vivastory @RaeLovesToRead The grimace emoji is a personal fave 2y

TheSpineView Really!?! Well I for one I will use what ever I want. I've paid my dues and could care less what others think. Old or not, I would like to see some of these young people get on 1.2K pound horse and take a gallop around a cross country country without getting their behind handed to them. I absolutely refuse to be gracefully about getting old. That is for my grandparents. 2y

PathfinderNicole @Jemgirl2014 they‘ll tear my skinny jeans out of my cold, dead hands 😂. I asked my Gen-Z baby sister (she‘ll be 21 next week) about this and she was SO confused because she uses the ok one all the time and her friends always use the red heart emoji (edited) 2y

AlaMich I‘m not clear on why 👍 is passive-aggressive?? Seems a lot of baggage to put on a simple emoji. 2y

sarahbellum Maybe the focus should be on not being passive aggressive a-holes instead of policing everyone‘s use of emojis… but hey, I‘m sure that‘s just my millennial side part and skinny jeans talking 😂😂👍👍 2y

Tamra What? Why? Frankly, I‘m too old to care. 😂 2y

Jemgirl2014 @PathfinderNicole 😂 Skinny jeans are better than the “mom” jeans that the Zoomers are pushing. Your sister and her friends seem real down to earth. Oh how fun! Happy 21st to your sister. 🥳 2y

LeahBergen Oh oh. 😬 Looks like I‘m officially an old timer! 👍❤️👌 2y

Susanita Oh for crying out loud. (I guess that expression probably makes me look old too.) 🙈 2y

annahenke This is facts. Giving a thumbs up response on a work slack is soo passive aggressive these days, I mean wowza! Haha 2y

Branwen OMG! 😱 I use the thumbs up emoji all the time! I guess I am officially an old timer now! 🤣😂 2y

Came to pick up my takeaway WITHOUT bringing a book, and it's not ready yet! Rookie error 😔 #hangsheadinshame #firstworldproblems #LittensWillGetIt

TrishB At least you can scroll Litsy 😁 2y

Bookwomble @TrishB Consolation prize 🙂 But I'm staving and smelling this delicious food while I wait is torture! 2y

SRWCF Oh, the horror! 2y

Bookwomble @SRWCF I survived! 😓😄 Must remember Rule #1 of Book Club: Always carry a book! 📚 2y

SRWCF @Bookwomble Now that I am finally out of my book slump, I shall remember to do that! 2y

Does anyone else slightly panic when they have no audiobooks available to listen to? Just me? I feel like I usually do a good job of taking holds off of suspend in time for the next one to come by the time I finish one. I‘ve been waiting two days for one to become available. Usually I would go to Hoopla, where there are no wait times, but nothing is catching my eye. I‘m also being picky because I‘m about to go on vacation. #firstworldproblems

BarbaraJean 😂I feel so accomplished when I‘ve finished all my audiobooks—I just switch over to bookish podcasts when I run out! 3y

Tamra I use Libravox when that happens. 3y

JamieArc @Tamra I‘ll check it out! Thanks! 3y

JamieArc @BarbaraJean Good idea! I‘m out of the loop with current podcasts. What do you suggest? 3y

BarbaraJean @JamieArc One of my favorites is Harry Potter and the Sacred Text—my lack of a commute during COVID means I‘ve gotten super behind! Others I enjoy are What Should I Read Next, BBC‘s Bookclub and World Book Club, and Levar Burton Reads. 3y

JamieArc @BarbaraJean Thanks! I‘ll check some of them out. 3y

Gormenghast Novels | Mervyn Peake

These are the voices clamoring the loudest from my tbr shelves. They have been patiently waiting for an unconscionable length of time, so I am determined to get these read this year. 🤞

The_Literary_Jedi Great stack to read! House of Leaves - The authors sister is the musician Poe and her album Haunted goes with the book 🎶 3y

Nute So many good books to choose from! 3y

ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled Oooo - House of Leaves. Sooo good. And Angle of Repose is languishing in my stack as well. 3y

CindyMyLifeIsLit @The_Literary_Jedi Thanks! I will definitely check that out! 3y

CindyMyLifeIsLit @Nute That‘s my problem! I‘m overwhelmed with great choices! I guess there are worse things, right? 😂 #firstworldproblems 3y

CindyMyLifeIsLit @ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled Yes, I‘ve heard SO many good things about it, and Angle of Repose, as well. They‘ve been hovering on my periphery for far too long! 3y

The Wonders of the Invisible World | David Gates

Just a bunch of middle-class white people who are miserable with all their #firstworldproblems. If it hadn‘t been for the fact that a neighbor loaned me this book and will ask about it when I return it to her, I would have bailed.

Blacktop Wasteland: A Novel | S. A. Cosby

#firstworldproblems #booknerdproblems I started Blacktop Wasteland on Kindle at my (masked) salon appointment today. I have to work super late tonight to make a dent in my workload (it‘s month-end close) but all I want to do is get back to this book! 😭😭
