    Look, I’m sorry, but eating fast food. Have some self respect.

      When I was at my lowest I spent close to $3000 on McDonald’s in 2 months. Just went through all my savings eating fast food multiple times a day. Now it’s hard for me to even eat it

        I have a stark reminder of the worst period in my life where I did the same. The “account performance” chart in an investment of mine showed steady growth and monthly inputs, then there’s a cliff, and over a period of a few months, it’s completely emptied. Thousands, easily. And the vast majority was fast food and liquor

      I don’t mind when people eat fast food, but I do get annoyed when people brag about eating fast food.

      Especially now that prices have inflated so it’s no longer corporate factory machine cheap.

      There are so many random food places even in the most rundown parts of a city that have both much better quality and bang for buck.

      I’d even argue you’re not getting an authentic philly cheese if you get it from a place that’s not in the ghetto or has been advertised online in any capacity. And the funny thing is the real one is usually cheaper too.
