[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 40 points 5 days ago

Found a new poor.

[-] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 5 days ago

Are you implying that the poor should be denied luxury items?

[-] JandroDelSol@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Aren't luxury items supposed to be high quality?

[-] kSPvhmTOlwvMd7Y7E@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Are you dumb? thanks

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 11 points 5 days ago

Quitting coffee has never make anyone rich. That's not a cost that kills you.

That's not a cost that kills you.

For real.

Some folks have a vice where they can't start a single day without a fancy grande latte or whatever, but mostly when I see that, it's middle-managey types that make more in a month than I'd ever see in my account at any given time.

How many skipped small vanilla cold-brews or boba teas (+a tip for my fellow working class ✊) buys an average healthcare deductible or car repair beyond my DIY abilities? Heck let's lower the bar...An oil change?

Just filling the tank costs like 8 enjoyable refreshing coffees. What a lame exchange rate!

Even if we struggle, it's still okay to enjoy things once in a while.

those don't look like Starbucks cups? Aren't the only brown parts on a smaller sleeve? This cup looks mostly brown?

These Nouveau Pauvre can't tell a gas station French vanilla from a Starbucks caramel macchiato

[-] kSPvhmTOlwvMd7Y7E@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

i used "Starbucks" in a "generic expensive coffee to go"- way

[-] GladiusB@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

That's gas station coffee. Talk about new poor.

[-] kSPvhmTOlwvMd7Y7E@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

oh so there is they also a chance they have a car

[-] JargonWagon@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

You can go to the gas station to get their coffee, you don't have to also get gas.

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 days ago

Cheaper to drink my homebrew moonshine.

[-] JargonWagon@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Sure. It's also cheaper to just drink water. However, gas station coffee is cheaper than Starbucks by a fair amount at least where I'm from, and it's not half bad.

[-] JennyLaFae 1 points 4 days ago

I give out so many free coffees too, literally anyone that asks.
