I guess you've all heard someone mutter about ridiculous "First World Problems". Now there is a superlative: "Austrian Problems". In Vienna we have a saying "I'm unhappy - I can´t complain". We b*tch on and on about the pedestrianizing of a high street until some politicians actually decide to waste everyone's time and tax money and hold a referendum. Now that the Mahü is partly finished everybody loves it. Where are the protestors now? Shopping right along with the rest of us!
If you want to shake your heads a little more about our First World Problems like this excellent collection of pseudo-grievances and aggravations.
