Have you tried making your sandwiches at home?

[-] frunch@lemmy.world 25 points 3 weeks ago

The avocados keep going bad though

[-] 2piradians@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

I had this problem. If it helps, avocados keep for a good deal longer in the refrigerator.

neurotypical propaganda

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago

This only really works when you're at home.

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 21 points 3 weeks ago

You'll be so amazed when you learn about sandwich boxes.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

Something funny I noticed at my last two jobs. The people who had their financial act together always brought their lunch. The broke people, like me, almost always ate out. Go figure.

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

I'm sure these two things have nothing whatsoever to do with each other.

well but also just born in time to live the golden age of computer games as a teenager. oh man those gorgeous manuals of 1990-2000 era games

[-] halykthered@lemmy.ml 17 points 3 weeks ago

As I read your comment, I could smell the manual, hear the gentle crack as I broke the hymen of a new manual, it's semiglossy pages revealing the secrets of button layouts to me.

[-] DogWater@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

Uhhhh phrasing

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

The joy of using red filters to find keywords to start those games.

My local sub shop has great sandwiches for $8

[-] Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.world 23 points 3 weeks ago

Same. People need to stop buying from giant corporations. Everything they sell is cheap shit sold at a ridiculous price now because investors expect a 30% profit margin.

[-] protist@mander.xyz 11 points 3 weeks ago

For real. Who the fuck eats at subway these days, the food quality is absolute shit, they treat their staff like shit, and they charge you more for the pleasure

And cups of yogurt go from 25¢ to $1.50 while also going from 8oz to 5.5oz.

I blame Hardee’s normalizing a $6 burger mid 2000’s, oh and greed, a fuck ton of greed.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 12 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

They couldn't even offer the $6 Burger for $6 longer than a month or so. They were almost immediately $7 or more. They were also supposed to be comparable to a sit-down restaurant burger. Somehow they cost more and are lower quality. It's cheaper to get a burger at Denny's than it is to get a burger at any fast food place these days, and it's a better and bigger burger.

Who tf pays $15 for a sandwich? Y'all motherfuckers need to learn how to cook.

[-] deaf_fish@lemm.ee 5 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah y'all need to learn how to be self-sufficient! Look at the people surviving during the Great depression. That's how we all need to be.

[-] higgsboson@dubvee.org 15 points 3 weeks ago

What tf kind of lame ass strawman is that? News flash: its usually cheaper to prepare your own food. Film at 11.

Just a constant reminder that gen z home ownership by individuals is up. But who cares, let's be doomers all the time. The economy certainly didn't have any effect on anything important like an election or something.

[-] Skua@kbin.earth 32 points 3 weeks ago

Up compared to what, where, and by how much?

Fuck gen z. Millennials have had it way worse and have been beaten to death by the economy since our late teens.

Also it’s mainly mommy and daddy buying them houses.

They didn’t graduate into the worst economy since the Great Depression, and then when they finally regained their footing get the rug pulled out with covid. And the cost of housing quadruple. Nah. In fact wages skyrocketed under covid if they were lucky enough to get a work from home “job”.

[-] Zangoose@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

Hey, graduating Gen Z here, where are those mythical high-paying remote jobs? Hell, where's somewhere that will actually look at my resume? People that got hired during COVID got laid off and now we're competing with people who have 2-4 years of experience for a junior position, inflation is significantly higher and paying for college and rent didn't exactly get easier. How can you look at the current situation and say we have it easy, just because you also had it rough?

Also it’s mainly mommy and daddy buying them houses.

How else can you afford a down payment? I'm a home owning millennial and I'll happily admit my house down payment was covered in large part by what was left in my college fund. No way I'd just have $50k laying around at age 30, otherwise

And that was ten years ago, when housing was half the price it is today.

[-] inv3r510n@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

You’re extremely privileged. I didn’t have a college fund, I was coerced into taking out a mortgage on my worthless education.

My mom is on the brink of homelessness (she lost the house after dad died) and my dad is dead (thank you for profit american healthcare system). Despite being college educated, the most money I’ve ever consistently made per hour is $25. I’m just barely getting by, and jobs in my field pay less than what I currently make as a valet driver with tips (~35 an hour but half is tips).

Unless I win the lottery or fall into exceptionally lucky circumstances, I will never have a house of my own. And all I want is a simple house with a mother in law apartment so my mom and I can share the house but live in separate quarters.

Being in vermont I’m surrounded by rich people and my job is a pointless job fellating the egos of the rich. They hate us and we hate them.

This is a super shitty comment you wrote here dude. Gen Z isn't having life handed to them any more than we millennials did. If anything it's worse for them because inequality isn't getting any less striking.

I'm a millennial who has a remote, work from home job, go ahead and shit on my career. Gen Z are our friends and allies in the end, they understand pretty well what we went through and they'll almost certainly go through worse because gestures vaguely at the state and trajectory of everything. The pain Olympics suck and someone's suffering doesn't invalidate yours.

We gotta use the empathy the boomers didn't, we need to be better and not continue generational infighting or the only people who win are the rich.

You can still be a middle-aged Tiktok star complaining about the high prices compared to the good old days.

That option remains. Seize it. Dominate the airwaves. Organize a rebellion.

Saw a canister of alive oil going for almost $50 the other day, tsk

[-] considine@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 weeks ago

Alive oil comes from the fountain of youth. For a canister that's a great deal!

It used to be born just in time to order LSD off the Internet. I am sure this is still somewhat possible.
