First World Problems

I about fell off my chair reading this list. Everything revolved around having stuff that always worked and was always at your fingertips. All I could think of was "that's why Boy Scouts is necessary. Teach them some independence, some self-reliance, and to enjoy the simply things of life like sitting around a campfire telling stories."

What a bunch of self-entitled whiners. I can only imagine what stress levels they would have if there were a major emergency and all that technology was suddenly useless. I'm betting they'd be just as useless.

    Yes, they need to experience tent & campfire living for at least 5 or 6 days in a row (or longer if you like) with no phone, no computer, no radio and no TV. Just good friends and/or family. My wife and I have done this many times and the little "life is good" hiatus from the tech world is quite rejuvenating. We're both techies and love the modern world, but bacon and eggs cooked in an iron skillet on a wood fire after a good nights sleep in a canvas tent really puts all the political ass**les that want to own us in the proper perspective. If they crash the world we have the comfort of knowing how to live without them.

    Snowflakes want everything in life brought to them on a platter.

    Those 16 reasons are facts of life.

    What do they want to do?

    Oh the horror of it all. Imagine the list their grandparents would’ve come up with.
