The only reason why I'm back in this hell-pit is to ask if one of you fucks can tell Elly that my skype is shitting itself. I can't currently get on and I don't know when It'll be working again. Also, I'm sorry that it dropped during our session, and I hope I'll be able to make it to the next one.

Otherwise, how has spam been?

Frankly, it tastes worse than cold turkey but better than potted meat. I still wouldn't use it for much more than a breakfast food. It has a pretty decent shelf life, however, so there's that.

It's good fried. Wouldn't want to eat it every day, or every week, or even every month. But fried spam every one and a while is okay. Good fair food.

I suppose the "even every month" thing is fair, and the shelf life and price tag make it a little more accessible. Still, having gone through a period in my life where the chief components of my deity were spam, ramen, and dry cereal, I'm a little leery of the prospect of eating spam when there are any number of alternatives.

Those were dark times in my life. I was living on campus at a different university, I actually stayed on campus over Thanksgiving break because I didn't want to make my family pay the time or money to drive something like 8-12 hours straight with no stopping just to pick me up. I had dry Raisin Bran and peanut butter for Thanksgiving. I'd spent the day before walking over to a Subway on the street opposite of the opposite side of campus (read: far away), tried to buy a big sub to have for Thanksgiving, and learned that I had something like 12 cents left on my debit card because I tried very hard not to take any student non-student loans that year.

...

Those were dark times in my life. I don't like spam. I'll eat it.

EDIT: I should clarify that I DID take out student loans. Made a typo up there. But that situation was really bad because all my food-related money was loaded onto a student card, which I couldn't use at all during Thanksgiving because all the on-campus food places closed down. That was also the same semester I realized I was paying 700 dollars a semester for a meal plan that gave me 300 dollars of food in return, 400 dollars if I only went to the discount places with the very best discounts for having a student meal plan. And then I learned the school in question wouldn't let me drop classes while I had some $25 hold that I didn't have the on-hand cash to pay for, nor the money in the bank to pay for. Those were dark times.

I've actually had spam exactly once. My initial reaction was that it wasn't that bad, followed by almost immediate regret. Kinda like my time here.

Still, having gone through a period in my life where the chief components of my deity were spam, ramen, and dry cereal,

All hail the dark god of student living.

Ramen?

WHOOPS

I STARTED A CULT

Ramen?

Let's not overplay that aspect of the trinity, I don't think we can compete with the Pastafarians.

I, for one, welcome our new spam, ramen, and dry cereal overlords.

I had a friend who played the college game that way. She ended up getting real sick from malnourishment and ended up having to drop out. Never went back after that.
