First world problems such as, "My holiday cottage doesn't have internet, so I can't update my Facebook to tell everyone that I'm at this great cottage." And, "The guy I hired to play World of Warcraft for me while I'm at work lost all my honour points, now I can't buy the Deadly Gladiator's Cloak of Triumph."
Just under a hundred "problems", to remind us that life isn't really so bad -- if these are really our only problems.
Good for a chuckle or two.
But the main point of this book is to remind us that other people have more serious problems. With very pointed suggestions as to how we can help those other people.
So it's a well-meaning, social conscience stirring book, made readable by adding a dash of humour.
Not great. Not bad.
