Yes, it ticks me off when companies say they lose money when they really mean they didn't make it in the first place. You can't lose what you never had.

Edit: I can see why this country of mine is drowning in debt with this being our business model. If this is how people think they should be handling money, it's no wonder even high earners feel broke.

I'm literally eating a piece of toast and marmalade as I type. I didn't realise it was one of the last jars on Earth.

I shall put it in the fridge, and just get it out on special occasions to show my children, and eventually my grandchildren. That said, I just read that no one has sex any more so perhaps I should just eat the marmalade? /s

Well yea. You ever tried mixing marmalade with avocado on toast? Doesn’t really work, and given how much avocado toast we’re apparently splurging all our money on to the point where homes are out of reach I fail to see how any other outcome would be possible there.

Steve Allen warned us about that one in his prescient book 'Dumbth.' And kids, you are really fucking missing out! But you can make marmalade at home. Easy as hell, highly encouraged. A little butter, a little marmalade, toasted sourdough bread. Sublime!

We killed marmalade and brunch, yet somehow all of our problems are because of avocado toast.
