You're right, nobody's happy. There could be so many messages in this but one of the simplest is that these things don't make us happy.

I thought that was funny and so true!
But I reckon a lot of people are happy, they just like to complain. I mean, I completely recognise what that guy is saying but I also complain when my internet doesn't work or is slow. I got pissed off cos I went into a train tunnel and it interrupted my internet browsing on my phone. It is what it is, now we live in a world where those things work and exist so why shouldn't we whinge if they don't work like they should? People rate hotels lower review scores because the free wi-fi is too slow!

I guess that's true - it's all about expectation. If something is there we expect it to work properly.
However, I think his point about how quickly we now expect and demand these things is a valid one, especially in the developed world ('first world problems' and all that...)

Yep, we're definitely in a very "right now" culture. I get enquiries from prospective students and them email to complain if they don't have a response to their questions within a day! They don't care about the hundreds of enquiries coming in daily!
