On How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Chain Restaurants
@OllyOlly Yeah, not just you, it was gross. Me and my ~cool thin friends~ and all.

On Gift Ideas for Just About Anyone You Know
@BornSecular Not just you -- the cookware seems monstrously overpriced. $68 for a pair of salt and pepper shakers? $100 for a casserole dish? $65 for a pitcher? $68 for four coasters? Really?

On British People Talk About Money
Least favorite advice: "I strongly believe that you can afford anything. There's a saying, isn't there? Pay the deposit and the universe will supply the balance." You can't, it won't, and only a homeopath would be quixotic enough to think otherwise.

On Sexist Menu Leads to Expensive Dinner Choice
I didn't know this still happened! My mom once had a meal like this when she lived in Japan. That was in the early 80s. So I sort of assumed this only happened in Japan and had died out on the grounds that it's obviously stupid and sexist. I should have known better than to think that would stop anyone, anywhere. How common is this? Also can I just say how much I appreciate the "IS THIS FEMINIST?" reference here? What a great tumblr.

On How to Lose Four Months to a Depression/Spending Death Spiral
Not gonna lie, the expensive, social distractions sound wonderful and I don't think I could pass them up. I know they contributed to your overspending, but it's wonderful that you had friends who had your back. The last time I had an Anxiety-and-Depression-Cocktail-O'-Fun was a few years ago, in college. After reading this piece, I hate to think what will happen if I have another one, and this time I have a job and a credit card and bills, and no therapist because I can't afford one on my own.

On I Couldn't Help But Wonder Where All The Low-Skilled Poor Folk Were
@seaermine I have to wonder how much your groceries cost in DE? My bill is usually about $80/wk for two people, and I don't think I could cut that in half by moving to NYC.
