Mfarhanonline Social Media News: Social media has given us a voice we never could have imagined 20 years ago. We can easily share content online, free — from inspiring images to our grandest hopes for the world. We can also use the social platform to whine like the spoiled brats we sometime are. That’s where Tumblr blog White Whine comes in. It offers a user-generated collection of “first world problems,” in which rich Westerners are called out for complaining about “issues” many around the world would love to have to endure. We asked White Whine creator and curator Streeter Seidell why it’s so compelling to read the petty complaints of the privileged. “I love ‘white whines’ or ‘first world problems’ because they illustrate just how well we’re doing as a society,” says Seidell. “When the archeologists dig down into the ruins of our culture 10,000 years from now, someone complaining that their coffee was too hot will really give them a good perspective of how pampered a lot of us were.” We asked Seidell to highlight and comment on his best White Whine submissions (or “worst,” depending on your perspective). You can find his (occasionally NSFW) choices in the gallery below. 1. Golf “Celebrities are great at complaining about their fabulous lives, but Frankie Muniz ends this first world tweet with ‘ugh,’ so it’s an instant favorite of mine.” Click here to view this gallery.
