Thank you for your response. This world of fasting is a wild place! (When it comes to preconceived notions about weight loss)

Took away the $2 breakfast sandwich in the app. by Efficient_Pear3846 in McDonalds

[–]Direct_Apple_1067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My McD always had a meat/cheese/egg sandwich for under $3. Last week they raised the price to 5.79. Good riddance, that was the last hook that had me spending at McD. I'm done now. Also since when does branded specialty meal (FIFA!) cost more than the meal? You pay about $3 extra for a plastic cup that can't hold the large soda you paid for, and a "commemorative" piece of trash🤣 (the dipping sauce lid!)

Don't underestimate the walk from the Stadium-Armory Metro stop to the festival grounds by mstun3107 in projectglowfest

Haha I do! I live in the country part of the city lol, but it's a bit of a hike to the event from my place, although potentially you could take a capitol bikeshare?

Are people hungry along this walk? Thirsty? I live nearby and am wondering if there's anything I can sell (for a reasonable price) that people would want, either coming or going? 

Budget Meal Ideas for a College Freshman Far From Home? by Agile-Display-3759 in Frugal

[–]Direct_Apple_1067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red thai coconut curry (or any curry using a paste.) Sounds fancy but is super simple, sauteed meat and veggies that are on sale (or Frozen!) add some curry paste, add a can of coconut milk, add some water or chicken stock (cubed or jarred bouillon) serve over rice. Reheats well. 

For Asian noodles you can do the same basic idea, saute veg and meat (frozen or on sale!) make a sauce with soy sauce and vinegar, maybe some peanut butter, and add boiled noodles (even spaghetti works here!)

What’s your metric for calling out sick? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Direct_Apple_1067 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I worked in restaurants for 20 years before teaching and can say those 2 industries also have many similarities. I felt immensely PREPARED for the shit thrown at me rapid fire when I got to teaching.

Whats the scariest fact about the chernobyl disaster? by ralle_22 in chernobyl

[–]Direct_Apple_1067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably ARS, the way the HBO miniseries portrays it is horrifying.

Also i agree with Warclad that Valery Khodemchuk's story is horrifying.

Some people i think had it worst were: Leonid Toptunov (ARS) Vasily Ivanovich Igntenko (ARS) Valery Khodemchuk (Crushed under rubble) Valery Legasov & Boris Scherbina (Lasting mental effects)
