Pretty White Kids with Problems

Also known as PWKWP. Originally a MadTV parody of those annoying and redundant WB (CW) teen dramas. It has become a way to describe shows that center around either the Popular kid or the Underdog, has little to no diversity in it's cast, and has predictable dialog.
Aaron: Hey Jacob, did you watch the new {Quarterlife, One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl, Smallville, Friday Night Lights, The Hills, Laguna Beach, etc.}?
Jacob: Naw man, that show's too "Pretty White Kids with Problems" for my taste.

practical problems

Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer. That means I solve problems, not problems like "What is beauty?" Because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy.
I solve practical problems, for instance: how am I going to stop some mean mother Hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous be-hind? The answer, use a gun, and if that don't work... Use more gun. Take for instance this heavy caliber tripod mounted lil' old number designed by me, built by me, and you best hope... Not pointed at you.
