If the article matches the clickbait title, fuck anyone involved with it being written and published.

If the article doesn't match the clickbait title, fuck anyone involved with it being written and published for using a clickbait title like that.

If the article is published in the wall street journal, fuck everyone involved with that toilet paper disguised as news organization.

No funds? Have you considered refraining from eating as a means of saving money?

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Think of all the weight you can lose while saving money!

Save money and lose weight with this one easy trick.

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Humans can live without food for up to 2 months, so to save even more money, just eat food every 1 month and 29 days!

Does Texas not refrigerate their eggs?

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (13 children)

Americans refrigerate eggs?

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Yes. If I understand correctly, it's because the eggs are washed, which strips them of their natural protective coating and causes them to require refrigeration.

Greatest country in the world

Here's a nice (non-paywalled) breakdown of the original article and reactions to it. I just managed to get the first few sentences of the WSJ thing (despite disabling Javascript), but between the article and the breakdown, it seems the author picked a baity title to an otherwise uncontroversial (if lacking) analysis of food price inflation.

Journalists don't write their own heds. It would have been an editor who wrote it. Your point stands otherwise.

To save more money, stop eating lunch and dinner

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why even bother? Just stop eating

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Next headline:

#Millennials are Killing the Food Industry

"They just eat "woke"

"If you want to save money, give up your avocados and lattes. Move into a large beer cooler and make soup out of fallen leaves"-Wall Street Journal's advice next probably.
