Date: February 21st, 2024 9:05 PM Author: Electric Alcoholic Lettuce im not sympathetic at all to people who whine about the cost of going out to eat. it was always expensive and superfluous. im more sympathetic to people who are worried about groceries but even most of those people need to learn how to grocery shop its not fucking rocket science. the people who whine about the cost of ubereats or whatever should be handcuffed, blindfolded forced to kneel and shot in the back of the head like the scene at the beginning of the departed.
