16+ Problems We're Glad Belong To Someone Else

It may not be Thanksgiving but that doesn't mean it's ever the wrong time to be grateful for your life as it is.

Whatever you may be going through, always remember that there are other things you're not going through, no matter how small. Like the examples here on this list of problems we're glad belong to someone else.

"I don't think I had to wash that."

It may not be working anymore but at least you know it's squeaky clean!

"Eating ice cream and my spoon broke."

This seems like a sign, but it's a mean sign so I won't elaborate.

"Lasted 10 years. Broke on me half way through my driveway after shoveling my neighbors because their shovel broke the day before."

I forgot that these things can break. I've never seen it, I thought they lived eternally and the market was sustained by people losing them or moving to houses from apartments.

"I was going to have some parmesan, until I saw how my daughter left it."

I'm more terrified that your daughter enjoys parmesan enough to take giant bites of it.

"My 6 year old left me a few cookies [...]."

After seeing this picture mixed with the last one, do kids just not know how to eat food? Are you teaching them nothing?

"I ironed my table."

And now it's crease-free! You might need to do the rest of the table to even it out, but it'll be smooth as hell when you're done.

"My orange was just skin inside."

Imagine trying to peel this sucker. Just layers and layers of sadness and desperation.

"This is my car. I live in northern Norway."

Sometimes I think living in Canada is bad snow-wise, but I can safely and graciously say it's never been this bad.

"Not much tread left on this tire..."

Yeah, it's also looking a little flat, I'd get that replaced soon.

"Double infuriating."

You just know whichever student gets this locker has a main character complex about it all year too.

"My can has a can in it."

Nothing like cracking open an ice-cold can of can. Definitely didn't want the actual drink, nah, this is fine.

"TIL that 3 mins is too long to microwave milk."

Three minutes seems like too long to microwave anything, let along a liquid that easily boils over.

"In a rush to leave for work this morning I picked up the wrong tub and now have raw bacon for lunch."

It's time to tap into your primal roots. You are an apex predator, hunting and gathering for food. You fear no illness because you don't know what that is. Now tear into your lunch!

"The way my roommate refills our ice trays."

You're forgetting the end of that sentence, "-is criminal." The way your roommate refills your ice trays is criminal. They need to serve time.

"I dropped my pizza face down."

This is a tipping point moment. After a long day, ruining your dinner that's a comfort food for many? Time to lose it.

"I guess I found the weight limit of a trash bag. That’s cat litter."

As someone with a cat who has to carry their litter bags out of an apartment building, this is my greatest fear.

"It took me four days to do this puzzle, on the way to put it in my room I fell because of my slipper which got stuck in the edge of my staircase."

Puzzles are an emotionally dangerous hobby. Too much opportunity for failure that isn't even your fault.

"Box of old coins from around the world just broke... Those were sorted [...]."

Hopefully, if you enjoyed sorting them once, you'll enjoy sorting them again!

"Thanks, Kmart."

Okay, but who's out here buying just one, singular, tiny thing online. It's not worth the shipping! At least try to pad out your orders.

"Why is my internet connection so bad lately?"

There are plenty of dangerous animals in the world, but none feel quite as destructive and immediately threatening as squirrels.
