20. The Remote Being Just Out Of Reach
20th TelevisionBefore you lies a gaping chasm in the ground. It's impassable and any attempts to cross it will result in certain death - after all, there's probably lava down there, and sharp rocks. Oh, and most definitely sharks. And, naturally, the one thing in the world that you need for survival is on the exact other side of this crevasse. If only you could safely bridge this gap! If only this situation wasn't so dire! Oh, wait - it isn't, because there's no ravine, no lava, and no sharks. What there is, however, is a mere three feet of carpeted floor between your lazy, reaching hand and the television remote. This is no life or death situation, just a day in the life of an exceptionally slothful person. Just stand up and get the remote. It could not be less of a big deal.
19. The Supermarket Being Out Of Your Favourite Snack
Warner Bros. Television DistributionOh, god- the shelf is empty. Well, that's it, you're going to starve. There is no hope anymore. After all, it's not like you're in a building full of food or anything - who's even heard of such a thing? And it's not like there are three other buildings full of food in the immediate area, giving you countless snack options. That's just ridiculous. No, because this one supermarket doesn't have this specific product, the whole world is ruined, and all problems pale in comparison to the distinct lack of snacky goodness in your mouth. It might be cliche, but there really are starving children in Africa - and all over the world - so, for heaven's sake, just shut up. And anyways, the store will be restocked in, like, a week, so you can probably survived.
