Learn to cook. This is why everyone became broke and fat. It is scary how fast you lose money this way. A single meal for one person can be the same as a family of four food budget for a week and the food you get is loaded with salt and calories.

My rule for eating out is simple: it has to be food I can't resonably make at home. I love Indian food but it wouldn't be realistic for me to start cooking it.

I know how to cook, but only in a commercial kitchen and only when I'm making 150+ servings of something.

I know how to cook, but sometimes I don't want to cook. I don't see why this is such a hard concept to grasp, and I don't know why everyone is so hostile towards people who choose to spend their money on this

Because it is hard to feel bad about someone complaining about a luxury that caters to human laziness being slightly more expensive. There is about a billion people on earth who don't have enough to eat or don't have access to a good diet and you people are whining about spending 41 dollar laziness premium vs a 38 dollars laziness premium.

Try using a bicycle, maybe you will lose some weight.

People are "whining" about an out of control tipping culture. Doesn't matter if you like the service or not, tips are fucking ridiculous right now.

Just stop tipping in that case?
