First World Problems
Onemunki says: We live in a world of genuine tragedy, starvation and terror. So, after hearing stories of cruise line passengers complaining at the air conditioning breaking down, what stories of sheer single-minded self-pity get your goat?

Spoilt Bitch Hates Yorkshire
1989, I'm working in Sheffield at Megabank's data centre, on contract from an IT supplier. I'm sitting in the team's work and break room, when the news comes in that the M1 is closed, and has been closed for hours. Female colleague, gorgeous but a Spoilt Bitch Class III, goes into f-word rant about how she hates the f-ing North, how f-ing useless and incompetent Northern cops are for not getting the f-ing motorway open again immediately, and now it's going to take her an extra hour to get out of the f-ing ugly worthless North and back to London.
Then we discover that a 737 has come down onto the M1 while trying to get into East Midlands, there's 47 dead, and several hundred yards of the M1 is covered in a mixture of aircraft parts and body parts.
It has always been a source of regret that I was not able to see her face when she understood what a cow she had been.
Silly bitch didn't even understand that Yorkshire is wonderful.

I'll be living in Yorkshire soon (currently relocating for work)
What stands out for me is that the train to London on Friday night takes almost exactly the same amount of time as the train across London to Home.

You can always tell a Yorkshireman
But you can't tell him much.
