      Who has time to read anymore? We’re all tweeting, Facebooking, and texting...when we’re not sexting, of course. On the other hand, who has time to find the funniest tagged items out there...and make them even more awesome, LoLCat style? This fast, funny, colorful book riffs off of one of the most popular trending hashtags on Twitter—#firstworldproblems, those complaints like, “My iPad cord doesn’t fit my iPhone!” “I can’t figure out my Ikea furniture,” and “There’s no 3G in my bathroom.” The perfect insta-gift for the inveterate twitterer in your life. Or anyone who appreciates an edgy right-now sense of humor. Funny photographic treatments of one of the Web’s most popular and long-standing memes (unlike some here-today-gone-tomorrow tags, #firstworldproblems shows up as a popular tag year after year). Each spread illustrates a funny statement or problem, in a way that’s familiar to addicts of the incredibly popular I Can Has Cheeseburger, Failblog, and other funny-photo sites. These are different in that they feature a captivating quirky design, and content created especially for the format.
