I just got back from vacation today, and was a bit huffy on the homeward trip when my flight was delayed by an hour. While such modern occurrences are naturally frustrating, it’s easy to forget that people had even more intense (if not equally frivolous) problems in decades past. If you don’t believe me, just take a look at this hilarious new meme: 1890s problems. 



OK, I suppose I now can’t get all worked up when my Internet connection goes out. Head on over to the source to see even more vintage problems! [via Uproxx]

What do you think of this meme? Which ones are your favorite?
