The Art of Negative Thinking

I have wanted to write a book like this for a long time, but I don't have any idea about publishing as this blog will probably prove.

We seem to have become an unthankful society at times. This blog is a collection of things that I have heard others say, that I have heard myself say, and fictional situations to make us think.

One might call some of these examples first world problems.

Gold Coins From Heaven

A man walks down the street and gold coins begin falling from the sky (let's assume that they are naturally occurring gold coins and were not just thrown from a plain as some sort of publicity stunt) . The man finds shelter and as he is picking up the thousands of dollars of gold coins he grumbles about the bruise on his shoulder where one of the coins struck him on its way to the ground and subsequently into his pocket.

Variation:
The man complains that the coins are too large. They don't fit well in his pockets.
