I hate it when I'm upgraded to First Class and it's a window seat.

I hate it when I don't have I don't have any lemons for my Bloody Mary.

I hate it when I ask for wheat toast and they give me white toast.

Before we write lines of our ridiculous complaints, I want everyone to know that this is a campaign for the organization, Water is Life. Clean water for us is a given expectation in first world countries, but still a struggle for many countries.
Posted by: Matissta | February 11, 2013 at 07:55 AM
Actually, Matiss, it is increasingly a problem for us as well. We need to protect our natural resources so that they continue to be available for future generations. And we need to support organizations such as Water is Life.
I understand that Hillary Clinton is organizing a non-profit to support the needs of women and children around the world. Part of that struggle is the struggle for clean water.

Thanks for reminding us of the very real problem, Matiss and treesta. I thought this video was a brilliant way to put our "problems" in perspective.

I hate it when the coffee isn't brewed yet in First Class.
Posted by: Flannista | February 11, 2013 at 08:25 AM
I hate it when people tell me that I have a beautiful face--as if the rest of me is sub-par.
Posted by: Sista C | February 11, 2013 at 08:30 AM
I hate it when people use the terms hate or love for things like hot coffee, cold water or hi def TV. Hate evil, love those close to you. All else does not fall into either realm.
Water is a problem. Not really from scarcity, but distribution. Lots of fresh water all over the world. Trouble is, people are elsewhere.
Like the spin on the ad. Will have to see if it is successul.

I hate it when there's a looooong weather delay and I'm stuck in my First Class seat for at least a half hour delay.

I hate being so old that I don't have any albums by the Grammy winners.

Good one, PEACE.

I hate it when I can't figure out how the lights work in my rental car.

I hate it when the GPS device tells me to go the wrong way or takes me out of the way completely.
Posted by: Matissta | February 11, 2013 at 01:18 PM
I hate it when the grocery store doesn't carry my preferred flavor of Diet Snapple.
Posted by: Flannista | February 11, 2013 at 02:00 PM
I hate it when my mailman doesn't deliver the mail until after 5 p.m.
Posted by: half-a-sista | February 11, 2013 at 05:39 PM
I hate it when I can't have the senior citizens' discount on a movie ticket.
I hate it when they don't bring a glass of water to the table at a restaurant unless you ask for one.
Posted by: half-a-sista | February 11, 2013 at 05:44 PM
I hate it when the paper napkins aren't two-ply.
Posted by: Flannista | February 11, 2013 at 06:29 PM
I think this ad is very beautiful...since I lived in Africa for two years. But I do not like the first world thingy...there is real sorrow wherever there are humans. I know. I got it; I just hear the other refrain too much. But, as usual, Flann and Matissta have found something great to fuel our thinking.

I hate it when I wake up in the middle of my life and the true way is wholly lost.
Posted by: Emily | February 11, 2013 at 08:55 PM

Posted by: Emily | February 11, 2013 at 08:57 PM
I hate it when the pope resigns.
Posted by: Emily | February 11, 2013 at 09:11 PM
Emily: regarding your 8:55 pm comment -- I have to confess that I hate that, too.
Seriously.
