This is a question 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?

Where to start...
People who think it's a `natural need` to go on holiday, eat at restaurants, have a car and all that.

The worryingly high number of people that believe `reality` shows, for fucks sake of course it didn't happen like that.

On-Demand services, the ability to catch up on something that was kind of rubbish in the first place, is repeated loads and there are +1's and VHS and all that, Hard Disk recorders.

I can afford to go on holiday, eat in restaurants and have a car and all that, they're all rather good things.
People are idiots, generally, get over it.
I, and I'm sure a great many people, don't bother sitting down infront of the TV at a certain time each week to watch a favorite programme as we're too busy eating out, away on holiday or just driving our fancy sports cars around, so recording TV or watching things "on demand" is a great option.
I imagine you're the kind of person who thinks that we should all live in a field bumming each other.

I think OP
was making a small point about consumerism and you kinda reinforced his point.

But that's ok, because I occasionally go on holidays, eat at restaurants and watch tv.
That might be because I work & have a job which pays me money regularly based upon the hours I work.

So TV is so special people ought to live their lives around its schedule?
That's the only reason I can think of to think on demand and HD recorders are a problem.
