in 6 months these same assholes will be talking about how lower income people are destroying the economy by packing instead of buying $20 lunches.

>>22030139
I remember going on a trip for work and I was totally unprepared so when I got to the hotel, I walked down the street to a Publix and bought two packs of English Muffins, peanut butter, jelly, and a giant bag of chips. Most miserable 4 days of my life. I agree that ordering out every meal is retarded, but this boomer moralizing where you have to eat a can of beans and 1/10 a bag of rice for every meal, meanwhile they bought a mansion for 100k in 1992 after getting a job at their dad's company is equally ridiculous.

I know this is a shitpost thread, but I do half a pound of ground turkey or chicken (avoid beef rn the prices are super retarded) with a bunch of seasoning and some salsa, oats with some seasoning, a banana, and two sticks of string cheese for lunch and the entire thing is like $3. quick and easy to cook and pack. When I used whole chicken breast it was even cheaper, but took longer to prepare and frankly just didn't taste as good.

Okay... and? So what if some boomers and billionaires piss and shit their pants over slop chains dying? That's funny and seems like a plus to saving tons of money and your health.
>but le hypocrisy!
That doesn't change the fact that between a boomer billionaire saying to pack your own lunch, and a boomer billionaire telling you to go out and support food and service businesses, the former is clearly the one that actually benefits you. For what it's worth, I've never read Kevin O'Leary cry about about le millennials killing any of that shit. It's mostly (not entirely) a case of two different faggot groups with opposing views speaking up at different times like >>22030407 got at. Honestly, it feels like slop addicts often use this as an excuse to keep eating overpriced slop to own the boomers when all they're doing is owning themselves.

>>22030411
It absolutely is "learn to code" lol you're just a disingenuous retard. Working in a coal mine is just as fucking stupid as eating McDonald's every day, but a billionaire telling someone to just learn to code or only eat the cheapest most processed sandwiches you can make until you can afford a house totally misses the root of the issue. At least a billionaire saying that makes sense because they ARE out of touch, you're probably just a retarded bootlicking normal

>>22030167
No, pack a sandwich is actually legit and always has been. Packing a sandwich isn't going anywhere, either.

Half a pound of ground chicken is already more than $3 and I live in a LCOL southern town.

>>22030191
Pretty much. Easily accessible luxuries are the only things keeping the average amerifat boomer from going postal, way more so than zoomers. You can just look at what fast food companies literally say themselves, that a lot of the financial stress in the industry right now is because younger people increasingly choose to eat at home to save money. Millennial and older are the ones who cry about this shit because they actually remember a time when fast food was cheap and they feel entitled to that.

>>22030600
My local walmart had ground turkey $2/lb the other week. I only ever use it to make dog food, though.

>>22030588
>It absolutely is "learn to code" lol you're just a disingenuous retard.
How is "learn to feed yourself for cheaper" analogous to learning a completely unrelated skill to wholly change your career and income?

Are you some zoomer who thinks cooking is some insurmountable skill because you're so busy using your skills on tiktok?

>>22030615
If you're getting turkey for $2/lb I guarantee you the only thing it's good for is feeding to your dog

loaf of bread $1.65
peanut butter $2.15
jelly $2.75
18 pack chips $6.95
3 lbs gala apples $2.99

Prices seemed pretty high in that example, not sure why you would spend that much on cheap slop.
You could make an actually decent lunch for like $2 and just pack it with you instead of a bunch of sugar and deep fried carbs.

baked/seasoned chicken leg quarter $1.50
roasted red potato $0.30
1 cup mixed veggies $0.30

You could do something like that instead which would be much more nutritious and wholesome, and still be very inexpensive.

>>22030632
>not sure why you would spend that much on cheap slop.
I assume the supposition is pre-sidestepping all the usual arguments against cooking your own food or bringing lunch with you to work.
>I can't cook at work
>I can't cook
>I don't know how to cook
>I work in an office and can't microwave anything
>I don't own tupperware, its simply too expensive
The usual dumb shit where people will cry over $20 lunches but a $20 set of tupperware and using it for years is a bridge too far sorta nonsense.

>>22030619
>Are you some zoomer who thinks cooking is some insurmountable skill
I'm a zoomer and I cook lol. In fact I learned to cook on my own because neither of my parents knew how to cook and I got tired of eating McDonald's.
>learning a completely unrelated skill
A grown adult should be able to learn a new skill, moron. The cope that it's zoomers who cry about fast food prices is hilarious when these companies themselves say that zoomers are the most likely to choose to cook at home instead. Retarded boomers who refuse to learn anything new are the ones crying on the internet (primarily). But I actually have compassion for people and understand that even something that seems simple like cooking is hard to get into for people who have never done it and have 0 guidance. It's the same for coding. In fact it's probably more retarded to be completely tech illiterate in a country dominated and led by its tech sector than it is to not know how to cook in a country where the fucking president has probably never cooked a meal in his life and serves McDonald's when he's hosting people at the white house lmao

>>22030644
>these companies themselves say that zoomers are the most likely to choose to cook at home instead.
Objectively zoomers spend twice as much of their income on takeout than boomers.

Having a job is the problem, NEET for life crew.

>>22030649
Because zoomers make less than boomers I'm assuming. Besides the fact that whatever you're citing (if you're even citing something real) is probably self reported, you'd also have to compare income and probably location, like do they live in food desert for example. I'm also using boomer as in anyone older than zoomers, obviously actual boomers are too old to leave the house and probably go full retard if they see a screen in a McDonald's anyway.
Either way zoomers not eating out as much as people say wasn't even my main point but of course a disingenuous prick with no worldview and nothing real to say would only want to respond to that

>>22030644
>A grown adult should be able to learn a new skill, moron.
A coal miner should be able to learn to code too?

To be clear, it sounds like you're being a pedant arguing over minute nonsense when in reality you agree with me. You agree people should stop crying about $20 mcdonalds lunches and just make their own food
>But I actually have compassion
Oh, you're a woman.

>>22030661
>A coal miner should be able to learn to code too?
Yup. Anyone can.
>in reality you agree with me. You agree people should stop crying about $20 mcdonalds lunches and just make their own food
Nope. We aren't in the frontier days anymore. This hasn't been a country of self reliance for a long time so I don't blame people for lacking basic survival skills in a country where countless people become rich and famous everyday without even knowing how to wipe their own ass. As Woody Guthrie said, the gambling man is rich and the working man is poor.
>Oh, you're a woman.
Nope.

Idk bros, I easily spend $50 to $120 on groceries per week. Add in cottage cheese, other cheese, oats, nuts, frozen fruit, pasta, pasta sauce, rice, beans, spices, butter, coffee filters, cleaning supplies, paper towels, TP, dish detergent, soap, toothpaste, floss, shampoo, conditioner, laundry detergent, one snack item per week, some beers for the weekend, and it really adds up. I think boomers think you should be fine on $30 per week and no more than 1500 calories per day with no more than 50g of protein, but that just ain't it.

I do. Normal people do. Its not "basic survival" to make a sandwich and eat it at lunch. Making EATING FOOD a "basic survival skill not everyone is obligated to learn" is beyond moronic. Quit softening society into some faggy little padded room.

You're coddling adults who haven't figured out how to save $5 a day or feed themselves. How embarrassing.

as an alcoholic my money goes to booze, food is at least secondary or tertiary, because even if it's not true, i don't feel as drunk if i've eaten, and will buy more booze on top of the food. however, when i do drink and eat something substantial rather than just a slice of deli turkey breast, i wake up feeling good

But cucks like you fawn over people telling them what to do to feel like they’re doing something right and better than others. I can take care of myself and acknowledge how fucked the economy is, and how stupid it is to consistently tell the poors to suck it up.

>And I expect the American economy to provide the excellence it should.
Sounds like its working as intended, whats your issue?
>Full time workers should be able to participate in the economy beyond basic necessities.
Labor isn't paid based on hours put in, its based on the value of the labor itself. Its nice to be idealistic and suggest "full time work=luxury living" but it just doesn't work that way. Someone working 40 hours a week at Burger King simply cannot have the same lifestyle of a plumber, lawyer, doctor, or accountant working 40 hours a week. You can make a 'comfortable' living working nearly any job 40 hours a week. If you're uncomfortable its because there are more laborers capable of doing that job than employers are willing to pay. Stop being dumb and pretending economics doesn't exist.

Nobody is telling poors to suck it up. People with sense are telling poors to stop being bad with money.

No, I'm discussing the post at hand. Your defense of their bullshit doesn't make it any less legible
I don't hate rich people, I think there are out of touch asshole getting attention instead of the actual problems with the economy

>>22031822
I swear to God this guy got one good beef sale and insists it's the norm. He shows up every time

>>22031844
Again, choosing to be poor out of spite is not intelligent. If you choose to continue living a life that keeps you poor, then your poverty is your fault. You have plenty of options.

>18 bags of chips = $12
Citation needed. Also PBJs are high GI, not healthy, taste like shit and will make you feel like shit.

>>22031865
Can I live with you?

>>22031865
>Again
I'm not the previous anon.
>a life that keeps you poor, then your poverty
I'm not, thanks for enquiring.
>You have plenty of options.
Yes, you can either lower your head and try to be a better goy than your neighbour, or ally with him to make it so a working man shouldn't have to live off the same rice and beans the slaves used to eat.

>>22030139
Zoomers are such turds

>>22031870
No, because my parents live with me. They live with me because they were too stupid to buy their own house. They gave all of they money to landlords their entire lives and now it's my problem.

>>22031874
I actually have no idea what youre even trying to say to me. Are you telling me to overthrow the government or something? That doesn't sound realistic.

>>22031845
>I think there are out of touch asshole getting attention instead of the actual problems with the economy
His point wasn't to address problems with the economy, it was pointing out how stupid people are stupid with money.
>wah, i can't afford $15 fast food or $25 doordash!
Thats what he was addressing. That doesn't invalidate, negate, or ignore actual problems with the economy, he's pointing out how cattle are cattle. I'm sorry you cannot think outside the bun and see that. Not everything has to be a "why isn't he addressing the 67,000 other problems with the nebulous subject surrounding his point" statement.

>>22031879
Ahhh you have family trauma. That's why your world view is so self-centered.

>>22031882
I don't have family trauma I have retard trauma from dealing with people like you every day of my life. People who blame everyone except themselves for their shitty lives. I feel like I'm the only sane person left on the planet.

>>22031887
No you're right. It's everyone else that's the problem.

>>22031879
>overthrow the government or something
There's plenty to do in that "or something" my dear goycattle friend.

>>22031912
I would wager that I do more to help those around me on a weekly basis than you do on a yearly basis. But honestly outside of my friends and family I don't really feel a connection to society anymore. The last couple years have really turned the average person into an ape. Yesterday I was going to donate something to a local charity and honestly I don't know if anyone deserves charity anymore. I think about the kind of person who is going to go there and take the items I donated and I don't think it's going to be someone who needs or deserves it.

But I have no delusions that I will somehow enact societal change.

>>22030542
Just join but drink water. People are retards for not pocketing per diem money. If it was expensed I'd understand a bit more but per diem you're a retard if you don't try to pocket that money especially since its untaxed.

>>22031887
>I feel like I'm the only sane person left on the planet.
This is how you know you're an asshole, btw.

>>22030139
This whole discourse is hilarious. Zoomer retards think they're owed a fast food meal every lunch after doing 4 hours of their do nothing clothes folding or clicking on the computer, all whil3 being fat already.

Their biggest hang up on being told to "cook" is that these retards litteraly dont even know how to operate a stove. Something like boiling pasta is litteraly out of reach for them.

The funniest part is that, these retards throw their hands at the recommendation of a PB&J as a signal of poverty, but jump for joy Uncrustables and a Mcdouble. Fucking lol

>>22030163
Same, I just don't really care for potato chips.
Just give me the whole potato lol.

Complaining about the inability to buy cheap lunch is complaining about the economy, so why would he address the issue of the economy in that dismissive out of touch way?

>the answer to not being poor is always "eat like a fucking rat and survive on beans and grains until you save up enough to buy a house"
What if I don't want to be miserable for the next 5 years? I legitimately cook 99% of all the food I eat and shit is still way too expensive. Even when I'm trying to be extra cheap and only buy the cheapest meats and veg while keeping basic nutrition in mind I still get fucked.

>goycattle instantly goes for his usual "individual morality contest" while admitting his misanthropic brainwashing
You lot are really incorrigible, aren't you? If you one day grow out of your misplaced sense of superiority over your fellow man, hope you'll have some life and energy left from the greyhound race you seem to dedicate your life to.

Not reading bait thread but not a single one of those prices is accurate.

People this stupid need to stop posting.

I just don't eat til I get home

>>22030149
You understand restaurants will all close without customers right?

This is the same nonsense as thinking homeless people have tons of cash for drugs. The people eating out are the top 10% already. 60% do not have jobs at all. The only thing they are going to be eating are the retards who keep talking shit.

If people actually did this they would just charge $20 for it instead.

>>22030139
>packing a sandwich for lunch?
back in the bad olde 1990s, after the end of the 1980s housing bubble collapse, i ate 10 cent bittery butter biscuits for lunch at school. 10 cent biscuits don't exist now.

now i eat a can of Pringles for work-lunch. that or a Mcchikken, if i am feeling fancy and there was McRonald's nearby. the Burger Kings are too damn high!

you zoomers are too fancy nancy for my fancy lunch!

>>22030349
>>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! WHY ARE ALL THE RESTAURANTS DYING?!!!!! YOUNG PEOPLE NEED TO SPEND!!!!!!!

i don't own restaurants nor am i a billionzillionaire. eat a pringles, you lala faggot. i want all the restaurants hiring illegals to be destroyed.

that is some commiefornian bullshit price pulled out of your commie ass. you're all just lying TDS cult >>>/pol/tards . AGAIN!

I made a post here about making your own bread using actual flour, but it suddenly disappeared from here and in the archives.
I’m assuming I teleported to another parallel world or something.

>complaining about symptoms is complaining about the root cause, so why did he dismiss the symptom with an easy remedy?

I still have no idea what your point is. Because he's not addressing points you want him to address I guess?

>>22033156
I’m not mad, it is just my opinion that his comment was retarded, out of touch, and dismissive.

People won't vote to help the poor if being poor is considered a moral failing
It's such an easy trick even the poor themselves fall for it

>>22030139
If you really want to save money pack rice for lunch. The Bengali guy who got fired at my work for brazenly stealing boxes of stock, walking out the side door and putting them in his car, all on camera used to bring a tupperware full of rice to work and eat it cold on his break. Weird guy but that's the cheapest lunch I've seen.
