Whether or not she was right, this is what support at my loan serviced told me

I got a vasectomy as a way of dealing with it.

2 years ago yogurt was 40 cents, today it’s 80. Bacon was $3 a pound, today the cheapest is $4.50 unless it’s on sale. Frozen pizzas were $4, $5 on the top end, now they’re $6-$15… for a frozen pizza. Ramen was 20 cents, today it’s 55. String cheese was $4, today it’s $7. A small bag of shredded cheese was $4, now it’s $8. Cereal was $3, today it’s $5 and you get less. Have you seen how expensive a bag or Doritos is? A small bag costs more than what a party size bag used to cost, and that’s true for all chips.

I have dozens of items that are out of reach today that were common fare 3 years ago. Milk and eggs have come back down, yes, but not the rest of it.

I’ve been seeing this headline for at least 10 years now

Oh damn, I’ve been wondering why to do with my extra box of stuffing.

I’m gonna try this this week. Sounds tasty.

1lb ground beef 2 cans sweet corn 2 cans of kidney beans Two cans diced tomatoes 1 can tomato paste Taco seasoning (I buy McCormicks from Costco so I have no idea how many packets)

In a large pot brown the beef Once browned open all cans and put them in the pot, juice and all Heat to simmer and add taco seasoning with your heart

Serve with a dollop of sour cream and/or some shredded cheese on top

Taco soup

Or be me as a kid

White bread Put ketchup on bread Put Kraft single on top Put in the oven under the broiler until the cheese melts and the edge of the bread crisps Eat it over the sink in order to not kill your mother by disrespecting the plates with that garbage Realize you’re still hungry and make 3 more

I did and I enjoyed it well enough for what it is.

That said, it is not a Willy Wonka movie. It’s something new with the same name.

Yea, this isn’t news

Yea I’m not too worried. I’m very hireable and will likely wind up getting a fat pay increase out of this. It’s just that I really loved that job and preferred to make less and stay.
