I went off a phase of surviving off of '£2 for 20' frozen sausages at university.
Lucky to be alive really.

i lived on stamford street before they built the imax and before it was a cool area
we had 2 choices. walk miles to a shitty iceland (well it felt like it, carrying all the bags back) or walk miles to tesco in covent garden where you couldn't get toilet rolls, but you could get 5 types of truffle and squid ink pasta (damn you nakers).

you could get 4 cans of iceland spaghetti hoops for £1. that lasted 4 days when you ran out of cash.

My povvo student shop that lasted days was jars of smartprice bolognaise sauce, a couple of bags of smartprice pasta and a block of cheese.
Empty half of the bag and the jar of sauce into a baking dish, fill the jar up to the top of the label with water and chuck that in as well. Oven at 180 for 20 minutes, stir and add a load of grated cheese. Back in the oven for another 20. Done.

I could keep myself fed for about £5 a week.

This kid has the worst diet I've ever seen
He eats a family bag of Doritos each day with his lunch. I've never seen a fruit or vegetable near him

It amazes me how culinarily spasticated some people can be.
I briefly lived from a bellend from lancashire that literally lived on bread. He polished off the butter in the fridge, when that ran out he shifted to Philadelphia and when that ran out I caught him spreading mayonnaise on toast.

The only time I saw him attempt to cook, he chose the largest diameter pan he could find, emptied a tin of beans into it and set the hob to full boar.

He was about 28 and hadn't just moved out either.

he could just have scratched his chin and had scurvy on toast

He used to block the toilet with amazing regularity.
As I often found when having my morning piss and nearly getting wet feet.

He was a fucking cunt.

dear god
imagine how stiff his bed sheets must have been :(
( rachelswipe with a fork, Tue 21 Apr 2015, 11:02, Reply)

He didn't use them.
I gave him a spare set when he moved in as he'd had to bail from his last place (which should've been a red flag, he was a friend of a friend).

When we cleared his stuff out they were still there folded on the chair I left them on for him

When my mate lived with him he shat the bed.
Apparently his duvet even had a comedy 'four fingered swipe' on it.
