      If you run out of people to judge, remember: you can always judge the destitute!

      Cooking unfortunately isn’t really taught anymore. As someone who graduated and knew nothing about how to even do basic cooking, like didn’t know how to make pasta basic, I was basically in that spot. Luckily I found cooking videos and learned, but right after school it was a hard few years. If it wasn’t peanut butter, top ramen, or Mac and cheese I didn’t know how to make it - and it was incredibly intimidating

        Cooking videos are probably the most prolific type on the internet after cat videos. But even then, peanut butter, ramen, or mac and cheese would be a lot smarter than spending your last fiver on a single sandwich.

        I was taught cooking in school, graduated in 2014 is that far too long for your “taught anymore”?

          My school taught cooking but only 5 students per year could take it because of limited equipment. Suffice it to say, I was not taught cooking

      Damn straight. I could feed myself for a day on $5 easy.

      I could even stretch it to a weeks worth of meals, if shoplifting is allowed.
