I appreciate that you did some earnest calculations. Normalizing for McDouble calorie counts is a decent way to do lateral comparisons. I did think about it, rather than napkin math, but then the CRM exploded at work, so I got distracted.

If it helps your calculation, CAD is the appropriate currency, and food prices are not pulled from logical sources. Best of luck.

Sure, a lettuce sandwich costs $0.79.

I'm certainly not eating the onion like an apple lol. But, to your point, a sandwich is exactly what you just said. Pick up an onion, some bread, some lettuce, some tomato, some mayo, some mustard, salt and pepper, deli ham (or roast chicken), some cheese. Buying those ingredients would be.... What $40? And you'd be able to make 8 sandwiches. Maybe have some leftover cheese and mayo. Perhaps a chicken carcass for stock.They'd be pretty good sandwiches too, but without bacon because we wanna keep it budget. Or you could get 20 McDoubles. By caloric value, 20 McDoubles will give you more food. You'll die from malnutrition over a period of time, but not from lack of calories.

I don't think it matters. An onion costs me $2. A McDouble costs me $2. I can get a whole processed burger for the price of a condiment on a sandwich I'd make at home.

Not sure, this seems to be exactly what vasalgel is. At first, I thought the innovation was that they just squirt this stuff into your sack and call it a day, and that would have been different. But nope! Same injection site too. Maybe it's more effective or something.

UPDATE user_data SET deleted = 1 WHERE ID = you.

Done. Data deleted. All gone forever. Definitely doesn't just hide it from the user.

Servarr Suite. Netflix interface, piracy backend. Operates over Usenet. Can handle movies, tv, music and ebooks. I've been told there are viable workarounds for televised sports, specifically F1.

Thanks. It's been a hell of a year. We went from pretty financially secure in July to basically unable to pay bills in December, and we haven't changed anything. Then the food bank put out a call that they have 5000 new visitors this year, on top of the 12000 regulars. If we're in the shit, then everyone below us is deeper in it, and need cash more than we do. Not sure how we're gonna pay for our little guy though, that set us back two months wages.

Our cat got a full urinary blockage, so we've been at the vet dealing with that. My mom's horse got colicky, and seems like she's got twisted guts, so she's been dealing with that. Dad broke his hip last week, and has developed a foot infection that he can't deal with properly, so he's been at the emergency clinic dealing with that. I got socks though, and I'm super jazzed about that. And donated a bunch of money to the food bank, so at least some people can eat today.

Wow that's a quick way to find out if someone pronounces it "Rooter" or "Rowter"

Yea my dude. If your food containers get hot in a microwave, they are not microwave safe. Could melt your plastics or shatter your earthenware. Or just burn the shit out of you too I guess.
