That sounds like an actual problem.

It's still a lot better than a generic terminal collision, and therefore a first world problem.  Almost all first world problems are actual problems, to a small extent.

Almost all actual first-world problems are actual problems, but the ones used in these memes are typically something that's already super good, just not the best possible thing. I guess that bad shuffle luck in Dominion is a first-world problem in reality, but if we ignore reality and just look at Dominion (Dominion is much more fun than reality anyway!), then having to Throne Room your Library is really a lot worse than your opponent having 5 curses in hand against your 5x Mountebank turn or something.

That's, once again, an actual problem. Unless you are saying being in an online community is so awesome in itself that whatever opinion you get is a minor issue.

I am sorry, but the text wouldn't fit in the Bureaucrat meme.

A first world problem IS an actual problem. Just a minor one considering the larger situation.

Of course. But having to play TR-Library is usually an actual problem, and the times in which is good are either edge-casey or totally unrelated to the fact that you are throning Library.

I agree with you for the Throne Room/ Library meme, but I thought the online comunity one was fine.

Playing TR-Library is better than having a truly dead card and playing Library, and it's way better than the problems you *usually* have with Throne Room.  If the next card in your deck was a terminal, then TR saved you from a collision.  Not that edge-casey.

Every first world problem is a real problem, but not every (real) problem is a first world problem!

Chrome calls it zooming in.  As does pretty much any program that fiddles with pictures.  :P

Chrome calls it zooming in.  As does pretty much any program that fiddles with pictures.  :P

Zoom is when something far away is made to look closer.  I suppose the term has also been adopted for webpages and other documents, but the main idea is still that the item is not actually changing size, it's just your view of it that is changing.  Image viewing programs could also let you zoom in on a picture, making it appear larger, but the image itself still has the same dimensions.

To fit more readable text on an image, you actually need to increase the pixel size of the image.  When you do this, it is scaling, not zooming.  So for example, in Photoshop, I can open a 300x300 image.  I could then zoom in and the image will take up twice as much space on my screen, but it is still 300x300.  But I could then go and change the image size to 600x600, which would be called scaling the image.

Of course you get an extra play of the respect-getting meme if you use scheme!
