It's so sad how many posters would rather blame OP for spending an extra dollar on better bread and veggie patties rather than actually acknowledge the blatant price gouging on food. The idea that everyone should only be buying the cheapest ingredients is just stupid. No one is living a fulfilling life eating nothing but cheap beans and rice everyday, and food prices have been ridiculous for a while now.

You go ahead and enjoy your wine, I promise I won't respond to any further comments on this post as I find it disappointing that a community based around calling out stupidity can't discuss some light hearted pushback against the logic in the post. Have a great Sunday as well!
I don't consider my comments combative at all. Tone is hard to read through text, perhaps my tone is just too relaxed and overly familiar? My questions are light hearted and intended to foster discussion. Questions are better for inviting discussion than statements, in my opinion.
I'm not being rude or argumentative, I'm just relaxing on a Saturday morning and communicating by asking questions. Are questions rude and argumentative?
When did anyone, including the guy screenshotted, say anything about the first dictionary?
He wrote the dictionary
And?
edit: I think this is probably the question that came across as combative, so I apologize. I would point out that the American in the screenshot did not say America wrote the first dictionary, just the dictionary, and the screenshot cuts out all context to what was being replied to so do we know it's incorrect? In America, America wrote the dictionary, and this is a world instance. (I actually would not use the word "America" here, but rather "the US", but I am matching the phrasing in the post title that America wrote the dictionary)
Just gonna ignore Webster, huh?
Everybody is an individual. There's a woman whose nose is so sensitive that she can smell diseases on clothes. Your eyes just might be more sensitive to blue light than the average.
My last 3 phones have been a Pixel 2 XL, a Samsung Note Ultra, and a Pixel 7. I may just be lucky, but I have never had a single problem with any of my Pixel/Nexus phones.
I decided to try the Note for the s pen a few years ago and found it to be a much, much worse experience. Software on the Pixel is head and shoulders above all of Samsung's bloatware, and the Note's screen died for no reason after a year and a half. Meanwhile, the Pixel 2 XL is still going strong (I had to use it for a bit after the Note died), and the Pixel 7 is a great phone.
You did not understand my comment very well. Beans and rice are great staple foods, I love them. A well rounded diet involves more than just beans and rice.
