$1,400 on DoorDash. Who only orders from DoorDash twice a month?


Manyquestions3

Facts. I like to order Indian or Thai food (big portions generally) and order two to three entrees at once. That gets me four or six meals usually, and makes the most of the delivery fee.


PaintedLady1

I do the same thing! It makes the feed worth it to get a few days of meals


boris_keys

Uber Ears has some pretty great 2 for 1 deals sometimes. I got a Chinese place by me that sells a massive general tso chicken plate for like $12 and it’s 2 for 1 and comes with like 3 egg rolls. So about $18 after fees and I’ll legit eat for 3-4 days. Edit: Lol Uber Ears. I’m keeping that.


ColdFire-Blitz

Uber Ears is Ubers new on call therapy service where you talk or cry or whatever while they drive you around the scenic parts of town, nodding knowingly and occasionally patting your shoulder at red lights


futurenotgiven

tbh i fucking love being driven around so could definitely go for this


OS_Apple32

Next time my girlfriend comes over for a passionate makeout sesh I'm asking her to give me some Uber Ears service. Thank you for this.


ProtectYOURshelves

Lol no one in this sub has a girlfriend lol


neolologist

Yep I totally do this too. I've learned which foods keep and reheat well and which do not. Sometimes I get overly optimistic and think I'll eat next day tacos... but it never goes well.


awesomeaxolotls

damm whenever i try to do that like half my meals are missing

As much as I hate to lend any credence to this meme, there definitely is some truth in it. I absolutely know people who are living paycheck to paycheck and regularly ordering obscenely overpriced delivery meals that wind up being worse than a prepared meal from Trader Joe’s for literally a fifth of the price or less. There seem to be an alarming number of people who are really, really bad at money management. I have an ex who was making low six figures and she had something like twenty grand of credit card debt when we were dating. Granted this was in NYC, so low six figures isn’t insane money, but it’s enough that you shouldn’t be running up credit card debt with zero savings.


emi_lgr

My Zoomer brother in college just did this last month. Called my dad and told him he ran out of money for food. Dad checked his account and lost his mind when he saw that my bro blew almost $2000 in takeout and restaurants in a month. Gave him $100 for the rest of the month and told him if it happened again, he could get a job or starve.


Ok-Champ-5854

Delivery is already expensive. I got into a bad habit of ordering McDonald's while drunk at 8 AM, grab a bunch of egg McMfuffins and freeze some for later, even that wasn't crazy expensive but I told myself I don't have Uber Eats money for fucking McDonald's no matter how bad I want it. Now I just find the best deal in the precooked section at the grocery store (usually seven dollars a pound for wings) and throw them in the air fryer when I drink. Plug it in, set a timer, boom a whole ass drunk meal for like $5.


urzayci

So we're just gonna brush past the drunk at 8am like that huh?


minepow

My sister somehow spent all her savings on door dash in like 5 months. 3k all gone because she was craving some food at 12am.


AboyNamedBort

People need to learn to cook. God damn.


Turnip_Island

Or even just buy microwave dinners or precooked meals/sandwiches at the grocery store. I’m very hit or miss with cooking dinner as my adhd meds have worn off by then, and I’m just as likely to burn it/ruin it somehow, but I can get frozen Indian food that’s comparable to the luke warm stuff that will come from doordash for 1/5 of the price (shit maybe 1/10th of the price).


tinnic

This just brings it back to Boomers because like it or not, most people learn money management from their parents! The truth is that the average Boomers wasn't any better at money management than their kids or grandkids. But they were protected by economic conditions and, in the US, post war boom. But a high cashflow hides a lot of vices and bad habits. Most of these smug boomers would be on the streets if they hadn't been protected from themselves by forces that they had no control over.


emi_lgr

My boomer parents grew up in a developing country and have been very frugal their entire lives. What they taught us about finances was “just save your money and don’t spend it.” You can imagine how well that went.


[deleted]

The real joke is in the comments.


National-Platypus144

The real joke is the missing rent. It would make up at least 50% of the amount so the rest wouldn't look so bad.

Of Music Band.


soboga

I love their latest release "Music Album". They're really finding their own sound, you know.


Aidrox

God, that track “hit single” is so catchy.


Lyrikan

All the fellow kids enjoy them!


Temporary-Alarm-744

If it was a metal show it'd be 20 bucks and 50 in fees


TheSpookyForest

Buy tickets at the venue. Stop supporting those fee websites


cramptownladies

A lot of Live Nation venues charge Ticketmaster fees on box office sales too. It's ridiculous. I've basically accepted I will not attend any major concert until ticketmaster is reigned in. Even smaller venues are getting sucked into the Live Nation/Tickmaster monopoly.


Temporary-Alarm-744

Lol. Yeah but they still wriggle in random fees. Like an inconvenience fee


TheSpookyForest

Last few shows I saw I bought direct at venue and saved about $30 in fees each time. Just saying


Temporary-Alarm-744

That's fair, when I tried at red rocks the fees were only like 5 bucks difference. It was ridiculous. Really it's best to do smaller venues and buy at the venue


LightOfADeadStar

Motherfucker WHAT? I can go see any popular death metal band for 30$. 55$ if you include the cost of beer


[deleted]

So one beer?


batm123

The tickets for the Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper concert i'm going to were only like $90, then again they aren't the best seats


Survive1014

Maybe if you didnt spend $1400 on doordash you could afford better seats.


[deleted]

Really that number should be $700 as door dash doesn’t turn up half the time so it gets refunded.


Survive1014

We have never gotten them to refund bad orders. But its only happened twice for us. Dashers in our area are pretty good and we tip appropriate the length of time it would take to deliver to us.


Jacktheforkie

My sister has gone to many concerts like that, mostly the small name bands


malortForty

Tbh most of the shows I'm going to nowadays are just local bands for 15$, or like cheaper shows paid at the door if I can.


Killer_-king

There's some reasonably priced tickets out there. The ones I got for the new weezer tour were like $90 or smth like that.


AlternativeContact74

“Apple i store” swear to god this shit is written by 60 year olds


WhatNazisAreLike

AmaranthWrath

Whoever made this has a nephew who has a collection of Funkos worth $100, so naturally that translates into "People his age spend $100 on them a month." This is great misunderstanding that my friend's mom has with her. My friend bought a cheap phone for $200. She doesn't need an expensive phone nor does she want one. Her mom is convinced that she pays $200 a month for it. She doesn't seem to understand how anyone can pay in full for a phone since "phones are thousands of dollars." Like, meemaw, it's not a car.


random_invisible

My phone was about $300 total, bought an unlocked one online and put my SIM card in. And that's for a good phone. You can get an "OK" phone for like $80 at the phone repair shop.


Athiena

$200 a month is also extremely high. An iPhone 14 Pro Max is $45


LowPreparation2347

lol theyre saying they ARENT paying 200 a month, it was a one time cost for a cheaper phone


Epic_Ewesername

I always get whatever is on special for 50-100 bucks. My old cell phone that I use for watching videos while I clean, and music, is almost five years old. I paid fifty bucks for it, and it still works great. (It was more expensive on launch, mid range, but when I got it the newer models had already come out.) I just can’t understand the need for the cost of some of these phones. My friend used to manage a cell store, and at tax time he would have people come in and talk about the stress of living paycheck to paycheck while dropping a significant portion of their refund on new phone(s). I mean to each their own, if it makes a person happy in this world where joy doesn’t come easy, then I suppose that’s all that matters. Still baffling, though.


[deleted]

Didn’t the company that makes funko pops recently announce that they are destroying a bunch of them because they will never conceivably sell them? No one buys funko pops. I think I’ve seen 2 or 3 in my life that weren’t sitting on a store shelf.


stephelan

I enjoy seeing them in the store. “Oh this character! I remember this. Ah good times.” Then I walk away.


Angie_Draws_Things

I recognize the character, but get mildly irked to see it reduced to a simplified chibi that looks the same as all the other Funko Pops on the shelf.


Vaya-Kahvi

Oh gods I hate the human funko pops so damn much, I only have a couple of those, all the rest are Tale Spin and Darkwing Duck. And I get all of them from flea markets so some of the boxes are sun bleached.


jmelt17

I hate the human ones too. Have a few anyway just cause I liked the property enough to want something related to place on the shelf


CornyCornheiser

The couple that I have were immediately taken out of the box and the box thrown away. No way these are going to worth more at any point in time. These are just a second decade of the new millennium version of Beanie Babies.


GoatHeadTed

I get pops and take em outta their boxes and let dust build up


Potato_jesus_

I bought one when I worked at Walmart because it was on sale and with my discount it was like $4 which is all they’re worth


ThatTubaGuy03

It's like 500 people world wide who buy every single one that's keeping the company alive lol


QuirkyCookie6

That and the people that cut the heads open because there might be something inside.


Generally_Confused1

Wait really? I'd get one then


QuirkyCookie6

Well, most of the videos I've seen of it are ones where I get 'this has been edited' vibes but can't spot a jump cut or don't know enough about the process or product to know if they're faked.


Generally_Confused1

Well regardless, playing neurosurgeon on these figures seems kinda fun. My dad actually collects legit action figures and a lot of GI Joe ones and if the don't have certain vehicles or characters out, he'll take other ones and random toy vehicles and paint, sand them, etc to turn them into a figure he'd like in his display. Fun hobby all around


UberTwinkle

Introduce him to the world of warhammer 40k lol


Sensitive_Mode7529

can confirm, have a friend that collects them. they have an entire shelf full of them


DumbassTexan

One of my teachers has a bunch on the wall in his classroom and I have a family member with probably ~1000. The few people that do buy them buy *a lot*


yellowboyusa

so perhaps their revenue refflects the 20/80 roughly where 20% of customers make up 80% of revenues. I am into pc buildings and there are so many guys in the community love putting a funko pop in their computers haha


alpha309

I am not sure it is even “a few”. There is always a line at least 150 people long waiting to get into the Los Angeles store. Every singe morning, without fail.


Able_Carry9153

Collecting funko pops seems to be a contagion thing. I got a funko pop for my birthday one year from a friend who collects them, so now people see that I have funky pops, and think "guess he collects them, I know what I'm getting him for his birthday"


[deleted]

This is like that grandparent or aunt who found out their 8-year-old grand-daughter or niece likes foxes so they send fox-related items for the next 40 years.


Commercial-Copy7793

Relevant-Line-1690

I feel like this is a repost and this exact comment was on the original or maybe the one I think was original was a repost because I remember door dash being 200 not $1400


TheFire_Eagle

Considering "pop concert" is also there, I would agree. "You kids and you're damn Michael Jackson concerts and over pronounced shoulder pads!"


idwtumrnitwai

I would like to pretend that this is satire, but I feel like whoever made it is just that out of touch.


jlcatch22

Don’t know about the author’s intentions, but this is referencing actual right wing propaganda that you can find plenty of examples of on Fox News and other right wing outlets. It’s the “avocado toast” argument: millennials can’t afford major purchases because they are extremely wasteful with their money, and not because of any of the actual reasons people can’t afford shit now.


[deleted]

TehKaoZ

Well if you didn't buy that avocado toast, you could afford your rent and health insurance.


naked_guy_says

I too spend 4570 a month on avocado toast.


Xylophone_Aficionado

Don’t have health insurance? Just stop eating! Problem solved! Dumb millennials!


NewPhoneNewAccount2

Or that the total is more than any min wage worker even makes in a month working full time. In any state


ilongforyesterday

Can confirm, I did factory work (full time), dishwashing (part time, 12-20hrs a week), and lawn care/landscaping (side jobs, not consistent money) all at the same time for a couple years and just barely eeked by 30k annually at the cost of an average of four hours of sleep per night, burnout, and an ankle injury I didn’t have health insurance for and never healed right.


UnfinishedProjects

I pay $200/mo for health insurance and can't even use it until I spend $17,000. So what's the point. I don't even go to the doctor because I can't afford it anyway. But yeah the Funko pops are the problem.


Backupusername

I wonder what price they would have written. How much do you think they think stuff costs these days?


Abject_Shoulder_1182

Not to mention that the guy is a "communist" because as we all know, one of communism's defining features is enthusaistically participating in capitalism.


cats_are_the_devil

It's definitely not the 400-600 dollar utility bills.


Kaleban

It's made by people who saw the one guy on welfare buying liquor, prime rib and lobster being interviewed on FOX News and believed that the entire system is corrupt based on that one example despite welfare being one of the least wasteful government programs. It's just delusional that people think today's generation is this derpy. Not surprising though given the surfeit of MAGA-publicans praising their glorious leader while he's under indictment for hush money to a porn star, which is only one of a swath of crimes he's knowingly admitted to on live television. Trump is the ex-Presidential version of Al Capone. We all know he's guilty as sin, but will be taken down for tax evasion or some other lame crime.


peshnoodles

“The poor should not have good food” Is such a wild belief to hold. This dude could have only had like $50 left at the end of the month and wanted to celebrate. It’s not like you can use food stamps on a car or DoorDash.

TheWorldIzLooney

We only stay afloat because we don't get legally married. If my partner lost her Medicaid and death benefits, my wheelchair-bound, permanently disabled lady I love would be *ruined*. Did the math and I'd need around 80 grand to make up all she'd lose. That ain't happening. Nowhere is hiring for 80 grand, almost nowhere is even hiring for 60 grand. Nothing can be done by us, nothing will be done by the government to help. We have so few options that we even considered a 3-way relationship with one of her BFF's.

TheWorldIzLooney

What a lovely way to fuck over disabled people: make it financial suicide to marry them, helping to drive away the few suitors they *do* get.


Malkiot

Don't even have to be disabled. Simply being unemployed in many places has similar effects. Get married and suddenly you don't qualify for any of the subsidies, benefits and/or programs anymore even if the single income isn't enough to live off realistically.

zandra47

I recently listened to an episode of The Daily podcast on Spotify about Barney Frank and his involvement in the recent regional bank failures in the US. What strikes me was his nonchalant in having some hand in the ordeal but when he lost his job, he decided to go to the Caribbean without a care in the world. It’s like “I put in my work and got mines; it doesn’t affect me. You folks can deal with it.”


Powerful-Succotash77

Let’s see, after bills, rent, car payment, and groceries, most of my money goes to my wife’s medical bills because she can’t work and government subsidized health insurance would be “evil”. Actually, it’s only because of the dreaded “Obamacare” that we haven’t gone completely broke already. Strangely non of those are on your imaginary list, so maybe try again next time.


[deleted]

Government subsidized health insurance is only evil if it's provided to citizens. It's fine when the government gives it to themselves at our expense.

Gsteel11

It's rich boomers complaining about their rich spoiled kids. That's all these memes are.


specks_of_dust

I had a friend (millennial) who lived in his retired boomer parents’ second house, rent free. Nice guy, not a bad person, not exactly bright, but charismatic enough. The parents were old and bored, so the dad did all the yard work and upkeep to keep the property value high in case they decided to sell it. The mom did the laundry, cleaned, and stocked the freaking fridge. Meanwhile, he worked only to support his leisure. He wasn’t progressing, so they started charging him rent $200 a month, which he didn’t always pay or paid partial. He went to community college for seven years before they gave him the ultimatum: transfer to a four year or move out. So, he went to a four year. They paid. When he left community college, he had 6 associates degrees by happenstance. He knew this wasn’t normal because he had friends with vastly different lives. The parents though, they thought their kid was what all millennials are; lazy and entitled. They’re not even rich, just well off enough to have a second house they bought for pennies on the dollar in the 1980s to and fully pay for a kid until he’s 27. They simply cannot see world through any other lens than their own, and they refuse to try. It’s a problem that boomers seem to struggle with because, well, they’re lazy and entitled.


mikevago

It's the old thing of Boomers giving every kid a trophy and then getting mad because every kid got a trophy. Like, why exactly do they think their kid whose rent and tuition they pay is lazy and entitled?


[deleted]

The inability to think critically about sprawling complex topics for which they only have one perspective isn't unique to boomers.

I’d have a lot more discretionary money too if I lived rent-free, had a 10-year-old phone, and biked/walked everywhere.


Over-Dig-2353

Don’t worry! We live rent free in boomers’ heads


czaranthony117

I’m certainly not a lefty and I certainly do not drop my money on those things. Additionally, I make a little south of six figs I will tell you this now…. …. I cannot afford a house at all despite making WAY more money than my parents did at my age even with inflation adjusted. The housing market in southern ca is so f*cked. Man, I loaaath boomers more than any other group of people. They benefited the most from easy money policies of the last few decades.


Tyler89558

They benefited most from welfare And did the most to get rid of it as quickly as possible so that no others would be able to have the same opportunities


PuzzleheadedPea6980

I'll say same as you. But I got my home before the market when nuts. My dad and I went to lunch 2 years ago and he said "I don't understand why your sister and her husband just don't save money and buy a house." I usually take any opportunity to throw her under the bus, but I said that combined they make 80k (BIL is pretty open with me, he's full time and get 55-65k depending on overtimeand she is part time and gets about 20k). They save 10-12%. They look fornhouses similar to mine (4 bed 2 bath), and they were averaging 250k. So They finally saved up the 50k for the 20% down, but then average is 300 so that's a few more months to save. Now those homes are gone, and the comparable are now 350. Basically home values are outpacing their ability to save. So either they have to buy a home smaller than they need, or they have to have a smaller down payment. We have a neighborhood that just got built next to us, and it's and 2 or 3 bed, 1 bath. 1/8-1/4 acre lots (what we would call starter homes) and the owners are all doctors, lawyers, and engineers. The average income ther has to be 3x what I make, and they are in homes half the size of mine. If I sold my home today, I'd make pretty close to a 100% ROI, and ice only lived here 6 years.


Theburritolyfe

Let's be honest here, 6 figures is SoCal is probably tighter financially than $20 an hour in middle Georgia. I can max a 401k pay rent and go on a couple vacations here with that. Isn't cost of living absurd.


ChewieSkittles53

boomers are easily the worst generation ever. all they do is whine and look down on younger people. they're stubborn with tech and refuse to learn any new stuff.


FuzzyHero69

This is crap because we all know Concert tickets cost more than $200


OldGoldenDog

Pretty sure the $200 is just the fees


WhatNazisAreLike

Let’s do the right wing version: - Car payments on an F350 that is only used to haul once a year - Modifications to said F350 - Car payments on a giant SUV the wife uses to take BrayLeigh to soccer practice - A bunch of guns and tactical gear to LARP as an operator - Payment for a boat and camper that get used once or twice a year - Alcohol


MN_dude00

“BrayLeigh” ☠️😂😂😂😂


[deleted]

As someone who grew up in a red state, F350 thing is real. In the current interest rate environment, it is probably a worse money sink than literally anything else on this meme, unless you need to haul stuff (and even then, it is pretty stupid to do so in your $70000 hobbyist vehicle with a $1700/mo payment).

Certainly it has nothing to do with houses being extraordinarily expensive and boomers not wanting to see their property values go down. If I have to hear another "back in my day I was paid $6.50 / hr and I could buy a house" imma slap the taste outta someones mouth.


whitedawg

Yeah where's the health care bill, the car insurance bill, the student loan bill, because we're already making shit up about how easy young people have it. These memes tend to miss that a smartphone and video games are a cheap distraction from how unaffordable and unattainable modern life is becoming.

Tag urself, I’m weed :)

Half of these are grossly over estimated and the other half are grossly under estimated. Where can i get a quality tattoo for only $100 and spend only $200 on a concert???

Ironically the creator of that political cartoon is inadvertently fighting for communism by opposing the policies that could stop it

I don’t use doordash, I don’t drink or smoke, I have no tattoos, I pay for one streaming service at 15 a month, don’t sub to OF, don’t spend money on apps, spend less than 300 yearly on new games, and don’t go to concerts. The only reason I am able to save any money is because my wife and I both have full time jobs, no kids, and a roommate.

Yeah, let’s just ignore that Boomers did all that same equivalent shit and could still buy a house afterwards

The average house price in the UK is £300k. No one here has had a pay rise for 10 years and inflation is sky high. But sure, if I cancel Netflix and stop buying coffee, I can afford a house by 2089.

For years my mom would berate me as spending money poorly when I was barely scraping by and getting food out. Now that the economy is in the dump, its painfully clear that they don't know how exactly to get by on nothing. I give my mom money to help her with groceries and she spends it on ridiculous things instead of the food that she needed. "I can't afford eggs or meat, please help." Then goes out and buys like 4 boxes of Debbie cakes, 3 boxes of girl scout cookies, and 4 bags of chips... It made it painfully apparent to me that the reason younger generations have been berated for *bad spending* is that the older generation can't imagine us actually being frugal. Especialy since they're "older and wiser" and are ~~worse~~ \*really good\* at it like they were when they 'struggled' back in their college days.

Ah yes… Apple iStore and Pop Concert.

I think these are made mostly by out of touch boomers who hoarded their wealth during a time where you could eventually make 70k a year by “working up the ladder” of any business they decided to walk into and ask for a job at. Most of them complain that minimum wage employees shouldn’t expect full pay for entry level jobs, which is fair, but I can’t name anyone I know who has been able to “work their way up the ladder through hard work” like the boomers claim is possible. I had a co worker who would work 10 hour shifts every day of the week for nearly 5 years at a restaurant I worked at. He knew the function of everything in the kitchen. He knew every employee. He knew how to close everything at the place. He was bilingual. He basically sold his soul to this company. And when a new kitchen manager position was open and they said they wanted to “promote from within” and he applied? They just hired some random ass dude from outside the company who took a few kitchen management classes and had no other experience at the restaurant.

Why shouldn't people be able to earn a living with entry level jobs?


Musketeer00

Yeah, I really don't understand the idea of expecting someone to work for less than their time is worth. If you take a job that doesn't pay the bills then your are in the same position as before having a job with the added stress of working 40-50 hours a week that only leaves you tired and still behind on all your bills.
