Not to say that that person was correct, but you could reach those prices shopping in Chicago at Whole Foods (or as some call it, Whole Paycheck): Grapes: $10. I've been astonished by the price of grapes even at the local grocery - I see them marked as like $2.99/lb and grab a bag, only to find that the bag is 2+lbs of grapes. Grapes are heavy. Pineapple: $5. I regularly see them priced for $3.99, $4.99 at the regular grocer, I can believe they would go higher. Raspberries: $5.99 for a 6 oz package - yes, if organic I see that price often. Soda: probably $3 a 16oz chilled soda from the cooler is $1.79, a larger one like that, easily $3. Nuts: $2. As they said. That's a conservative $26, plus tax. I could believe a couple dollars more, or that they exaggerated a bit. Still, it's not out of the realm of possibility. Which is why I shop for what's in season and on sale, and can buy the same things above for a fraction of the price, or substitute something else that's probably cheaper and better in season.

The person who originally made a big fuss about vaccines and autism was proven to be a fraud ages ago, but their bullshit will circulate forever. Or until all the antivaxers die of polio. Whichever.

If you're buying "healthy food for cheap" those aren't even good options. Pineapple? Grapes and raspberries, which are some of the more expensive produce? I could get a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken from the grocery story deli for $10, a 5 lb bag of russet potatoes for maybe $4. A head of lettuce or a bunch of spinach is around $2, give or take, even if you opt for romaine over iceberg. Bananas are cheaper than dirt. A dozen eggs might be $3, loaf of bread is about $2.50. Bag of frozen mixed veggies for another $2-3. You can eat that for a few days. Peel the meat off the chicken, use it for sandwiches. Make the carcass into soup. I just spent a couple months just scraping by on savings and credits cards between jobs. It sucked. It was stressful, and my diet was repetitive and not very interesting, and I kind of needed a break from rice for a while, but it kept me going on very little money. But, I also had a kitchen with a well-stocked spice cupboard and a good assortment of pots and pans and utensils. I had a real stove and oven (I've been apartment hunting, too, because why not get laid off and lose the place I'm renting within six months of each other? But I'm just astounded by the number of apartments without real kitchens out there, just a hotplate, which I guess works if you don't really cook much). I know one or two things about how to cook. And I had time to make these things being, well, unemployed. In fact, I probably cook less now that I'm consistently working shifts that end at 10pm, because at that point I just want to stuff food in my mouth and go to bed.

I ordered a pizza from Papa John’s today with the name Earth IsFlat. Pizza guy arrives at the house across the street… because I got my own address wrong (just moved here lol!) He grabs the ticket and says .. “Whats the name on the ticket?” This prompts me to yell… “Earth .. is .. flat!” … for my whole street. The pizza guy said .. “Interesting name..” I told him , “It’s true y’know..” The pizza guy says.. My friend mentioned flat earth to me once… I asked if his friend was also a flat earther.. He responded .. “yes..” I proceeded to show him how to circumnavigate the flat earth using my deep dish pizza with the crust acting as antartica … a sauce container in the middle for magnetic north (Mt. Meru) and another sauce contianer as a compass with the little flappy thingy acting as North… Keeping the flapping thingy pointed towards the mountain , I explained how to circumnavigate flat earth. The guy just didn’t look into it at all before.. but now he has a website to check out… I wrote on his receipt… TinyUrl.com/PizzaEarth And The Horry Sheet Show to check out when he gets home… I looked up to point at a plane making a chemtrail over us and simply ended it with .. “See that cloud? Thats not natural.. its coming from that plane” …I shook his hand and I’m pretty sure he left with his jaw dropped..

I assume it's on the level of people who proselytize to waiters & leave religious tracts(sometimes disguised as money) as a 'tip'. Someone in that deep honestly thinks their secret knowledge is a bigger boon than $5 would be.

Flat earthers are the worst because something deep in my mind says they have to be trolling/joking, but they are so adamant about it I don't even know anymore. In any case, debating them is pointless because even if you explain their supposed "proof" away they have an endless amount of "yeah ok shill but what about THIS picture" up their sleeve and will keep going until you give up. Also it's really annoying how they always say "ball earth". Nobody who isn't 5 years old calls the shape that the earth is a ball.

I wish I knew who that was so I could bring up increased sample size. If there were say, 100 million people in the world 10 years ago that got the 'tism at a 1% of population rate, that's 100000 people. If there are now, say one billion people, that 1% now equals 100000000, so yeah, there's more cases that previously in a purely numeric fashion. Although the rate of occurrence remains the same. Yes, I KNOW the numbers are unrealistic, but I am tired and hungry and lazy tonight, so you get what you get.

no, really, the growth of the human eye is regulated by the amount of light it receives, and the modern lifestyle of staying indoors all the time makes the eyeball conclude ' u r in a cave all day, guess u only need to see 6 feet in front of u, ur welcome'.
