My prescriptions cost so much too. Maybe I should just stop taking my antidepressants and see how it rides out. .
“If you spiral into the grave, your cost of living goes down by 100%!” - some jackass at the wsj soon, probably
The Wall Street Journal is just shitposting for rich people.
“Instead of seeking happiness, save money with misery”
Thank you, I’ve finally achieved Capitalist enlightenment! The secrets of capitalism are mine!
I’m not ready for esoteric capitalism
Struggling to get by? Have you tried forgoing basic needs of survival like food?
Aside from being tone deaf, I think this is bad advice. Common breakfast foods are fairly cheap comparatively and I’m pretty sure most nutritionists recommend eating something for breakfast to kickstart your metabolism. If I were skipping/reducing a meal, it would be lunch.
Best I can do is add some more milk to my coffee.
Hmm, lunch sandwiches are also pretty cheap compared to supper, maybe have lunch for supper then instead?
Well that would just make supper dinner then wouldn’t it?
Pro-tip: You can save money on living expenses if you just live in a cardboard box by the roadside and die.
Please not by the roadside, noone wants to see your progress to absolute freedom.
I see they moved on from telling us not to have avocado to toast to just not have any toast.
One more step and they’ll move onto what they actually want us to do.
If you don’t have enough money for bread, buy cake instead!
“And while you’re at it, do you really NEED to sleep?”
"In fact, do you even NEED a home? You can just sleep at work like a good little corporate slave! "
might be funny until you know there are actually some people who do this.
There’s a webcomic about a world where almost no one sleeps anymore thanks to a new drug. And they work 16 hours a day.
16 hours a day in a world where no one has to sleep seems wildly optimistic
I hope whoever wrote this trips in their bathroom and gets a severe brain injury.
Can’t get a brain injury if I have no brain…
taps head
I think something like “taps elbow” would be funnier.
Same but for the editor who chose that headline
News sites will do anything to get engagement and attention. ANYTHING.
AIs don’t have a bathroom, or even a brain.
the person who greenlit this article for publishing does
Editor: “I could spend the next 10 minutes reading this article before publishing, or go to lunch early.”
“We know life is Hard, but have you tried Ultra Hard by skipping the most important meal of the day and starting out famished?”
Off topic but I don’t think breakfast is any more or less important than a meal any other time of the day. Most days I only eat one big meal around dinnertime and maybe have a few bites of some snack throughout the day. I’ve been like that for years now it started from doing 12 hour construction shifts where I’d just work all day with a coffee and maybe an apple or something then eat a big meal once I was home. I don’t do construction anymore but the way I eat stuck with me. It’s probably worth pointing out that I’m very fit and a healthy bodyweight (5’10 152lbs) and I don’t suffer any negative effects from living like this. I’d say I’m healthier than 90% of the people I know.
the most important meal of the day bullshit was invented by america, fuckin milk lobby and shit somene else explain it I don’t care enough to
They act like most of us even have time to make breakfast like we’re living in some 90’s sitcom
It’s people like you that make me look like an asshole. Every morning I wake up at 3am to squeeze orange juice, make sausage gravy, biscuits, waffles, 5 omelettes, 40 pancakes, 6lbs of bacon, hash browns, buttered toast, and right after my son comes down the stairs, puts his ball cap on, grabs a single piece of bacon, heads out the door in a rush, I chase him down with a PB&J he inevitably always forgets. But it’s not like I want to waste 40lbe of food per day. Some days I just want my son to sit down and eat the 40lbs of food I prepared. He may think I’m overbearing but I’m really overcaring.
What intro was that from? I can’t figure it out :-(
It’s from… “Nondescript White-Ethnocentric Nostalgia Family with Canned Laughter” Good show
Instead of planning for retirement, consider dying instead!
That’s my retirement plan! Murica! 🇺🇸😏🔫 🇺🇸
Consider it? I’ve already accepted it
RIP in peace
Your life is hard? Add malnourishment and see if that helps.
nO bOdY iS bUyInG aNytHinG!!!
Haha the poors should just eat less food! Problem solved!
especially if we ate the rich instead!
