This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It was a few hours ago, poverty shopping would also have been cheaper in 2004.

So back when Super Size me came out, you could easily feed a family of 4 for like $10. Now McDonald's is as much as getting a burger from a sit down restaurant and takes forever because they have transitioned to doing Doordash for whatever reason

I eat more food in a week than 4 people do for a single meal, so the same would apply. Plus buying ingredients to make food would also have been cheaper back then.
