    He mentioned quantity of food, I mentioned quality.

    You don’t have to eat less if you’re eating food that is overpriced or using scam services like doordash. Just buy more-affordable food and cook your own meals.

    But some people think they’re “too good” for that and try to conflate needs with wants. I assume you’re one of them but won’t admit it.

      You know what they say when you assume…

      I’ve never ordered DoorDash in my life.

        Oh yeah, but you’re probably one of the people who conflates needs with wants.

          What else am I “probably?” I mean actually asking me would be a waste of time- and don’t do it now, it’s too late.

              Your evidence-free case made by just guessing about someone based on two very short replies on an internet forum? I’m glad you’re resting it because you’re making yourself sound like a fool.

                You’re right, my bad. You’re not one of the people who conflates needs with wants.

                You’re also not flustered because I called it out.

                Sorry.

                  I am not, in fact, flustered.

                  Believe it or not, saying there is a middle ground between eating nothing but peanut butter sandwiches and ordering DoorDash- which is the post I responded to- does not make me conflate needs with wants.

                  Although I admit that you don’t need to eat anything but beans and vegetables. That doesn’t mean I think anyone deserves to live on nothing but beans and vegetables. That’s a miserable way to live. Do you think people deserve to live that way?

                    Nope, but many people do while this guy probably doesn’t. I don’t think he should get more before those who have less than him.

                    It’s the same concept for critiquing people wealthier than us applied to ourselves.

                    Needless to say, but I’ll say it anyways: those who have more than him should also have less while people need more.
