wat.

I knew it. My cat increases productivity, Next they will be saying bacon increases muscle and brain mass. I love science.

Today I found out that my roommate exhausted his meal plan. Back in late September.

It was at least 1000 dollars and at most 1500 dollars that could only bee spent on food, and he burned it all in 1.5 months.

Is beer considered a food? Might explain things.

1000+ $
~ 770+ €



That's at least six months worth of food! How- I don't even-

[Nadaka]

I complain about my food bill, its between $800 and $1200 a month, for 4 people. One of them a diabetic, 2 more on atkins (mostly meat) diets, and the me who has to eat out for most lunches because I no longer live close enough to home to cook my own food and eat it in a 1 hour break.

Mine's roughly 75-100 $ per month, for one person, one cat and one dog.

They actually do sell beer at the university store, but he couldn't buy it with the plan because:

A. His method of obtaining beer normally is to leech of of other people's supply at parties.

B. You have to use your university ID to buy food with the meal plan, which obviously includes whether or not you are allowed to buy alcohol.

Unless he binges mountains daily or eats at fancy restaurants for every meal, something smells fishy.

Maybe he trades croissant rolls for booze.

I learned today the average american works 5 minutes for 1 beer. The average in other countries is closer to 20 minutes. We are so advanced.

He's actually been eating out of the vending machines, including getting very iffy vending machine burgers, for pretty much the whole semester as a cost-reduction measure. And yet he managed to run out of money anyway.

I have heard that the average price of beer in average wage/hour has remained roughly constant for the entire recorded history of humanity.

[Scelly9]

I bet he's buying food for people in exchange for money, which he buys beer with.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

There is a school of anthropological thought which suggests that permanent human settlement only began once people figured out that they couldn't make alcohol without permanent infrastructure and multiple established societal roles.

Like that has ever worked...  There's a reason why vending machines typically have higher prices on their products compared to supermarkets.

I keep telling people, if you want to survive economically you've got to go tuna and unleavened. Or less. And always buy in bulk when possible. Make long-lasting meals that can be reheated. And only eat breakfast (if possible) and dinner.

Vending machine... Burgers? What madness is this? I've never seen or heard of such a thing here on the east coast of the US. Tell me more, please.
