When I was a student in London I paid all my rent, bills and food with no difficulty with no more than my student loan
and the £2700 I had saved up. Over the three years I never once went overdrawn or used a credit card. I split the £2700 up to £300 a term and budgeted well. I had an internet connection, contract mobile and ate proper food. I was able to go out at least two nights a week, spent every other weekend in Bath with my then girlfriend and went to the cinema at least twice a week. I also had enough money to buy a new computer and a Fender Stratocaster. All you povvo food munchers were just piss poor at managing your money.

Vegans are even worse
I've had to be quite rude to one that insisted on shoving their foodwronger beliefs down peoples throats

Well of course you do, because if you wanted a dish that looks/tastes like meat you can eat meat.

If the idea of eating meat is so abhorrent why try to simulate them

Perhaps not all vegetarians find the look/taste of meat to be abhorrent

My ex used to mix up packets of stuffing mix with hot water and eat them out of the bowl.
No ketchup though, that's just wrong.

I still remember the yoghurt cake
cooked by a vague acquaintance with no knowledge of cookery science, who thought that it didn't matter if he didn't have enough yoghurt because he could just use vegetable oil instead. The end result was like a limp and impotent brick after a kiln misfire.

we made ginger cake when i was at school
someone brought mixed herbs instead of mixed spices. it did NOT look or smell good.
also someone else thought it would be a good idea to swirl red, blue and green food colouring into a cake, like a psychedelic marble effect.
no. like a grey mutant dishcloth effect.

our class thpethul once brought cauliflower instead of cornflour for a cake
in his defence, he probably spelled then both "conflowa" so it was entirely his idiot mum's fault

He's dead now. He had something pretty grim I think. He was tiny and thick as fuck.
It's still his mum's fault for thinking cauliflower was a sensible cake ingredient.

Maybe she took advantage of his relaxed standards
by giving him a cauliflower with candles on it on his birthday every year.

I've only been in for an hour and already I've had some Indian sweets and frankly bizarre Sri Lankan spicy crunchy sweet things
