Most honest doordasher be like "why do you order doordash?" "Lazy" "if money was no object what would you do" "money is no object and I'm ordering doordash"

These door dash people are giving the “ good times create weak men” crowd A LOT of fodder.
Seriously. The flippancy in using mental health as an excuse for one’s own laziness, then complaining about wages being unlivable, is not the attitude of a strong people.
@@halkon4412 As an admitted doordash andy, these people are fucking weird. I do it cause I can afford it and I'm lazy.

Whatever happened to those depressed people that were like “I just don’t eat”, at least they had some grit to them
If these weirdos in the comments spent half the time going to the grocery store or learning to cook that they spend coping and trying to argue why it's okay for them DD would go out of business lol. If you can make a TH-cam account and comment your almost for sure capable of learning a recipe or going shopping
"WE LIVE IN THAT SYSTEM, RIGHT NOW! THAT'S WHAT THE SYSTEM IS!" Fucking tears running down my face, it's way to early in the day to be seeing bangers this potent

I ran to the comments RIGHT after he said that. Absolute visionary
Friendship ended with r/teachers, now r/meth is my best friend
the EXACT moment walter white became u/heisenberg
the real problem the "sandwich ingredients come in too big of a package" guy is actually having is that he lives too far from the nearest grocery store. i moved to a house w 3 tiny mom n pop groceries within a 30 second walk of me & i eat more sandwiches than ever bc the ingredient quantities not lining up just doesn't matter. i run out of cheese? i grab a 20 off the counter & 40 seconds later ive got cheese again. and it turns out, being friendly with a shopkeeper you can see without removing more than a minute off your day is like, super good for your mental health. turns out people arent supposed to exist within a society designed like a solitary confinement torture chamber, who knew!
Exactly
i hope to live within walking distance of a grocery store at some point, it sounds like a great time
me but with walmart (i go there every day (i am employed at the walmart) )
@@Furiac.*saint peter at the pearly gates telling you which religion was the correct one to get into heaven voice* yeah it turns out it was no parking minimums & legalized mixed use development all along
actually i was mulling this over in the shower & not only does nobody having a parking lot for their business & being allowed to convert the front room of their apartment into a single-room business attached to their home fix that guy's problem with sandwiches, but also it fixes that same problem with most food because all the groceries here send someone down to the farmer's market to pick out fresh produce, slices it up the way you need for common meals and then just sells those in single-use quantity for like, a dollar. instead of needing to buy an entire watermelon to get to eat any amount of watermelon
& they can literally only do that because the rent to run a business is so low -- even if you factor out the relative cost of land in the city (where i live is actually very expensive for the region) purely because parking minimums will AT LEAST double the rent of a business while providing no utility most of the time, and there's simply no way for a quarter of a cucumber to pay its portion of rent for a car living space to sit empty 22 hours out of the day
whereas if all the rent you gotta pay to run a profitable business is a single room of the apartment you are already renting anyway, that puts the opportunity cost of a single product so crazy low that it actually allows them to sell you services that are economically impossible for like, kroger to get away with.
get this. the lady i buy groceries from noticed that i like to buy a bunch of her fresh tomatoes at once when i make shakshuka for my spouse instead of just getting a big pouch of tomato puree, so you know what she did? told me to let her know the day before i make it again & spent her downtime at the register peeling tomatoes and sold them to me the next day with a little extra markup for her time. and it cost, like, fucking nothing, whereas a big box store will charge you $10 for an apple just cuz they ran it thru a slicer
that day i got restaurant quality food at home without having to do the long part of the prep, for less than the raw ingredients would have cost me from a box store, AND got a feeling of communal love in the process. (Of course I took her a helping) going back to north america feels like stepping onto the bus that takes you to prison. "oh but my freedom of movement, my independence" they can go stuff themselves, i would never give this up just for someone to not have to look for parking (oh no boo hoo ):> ) every time they decide to fire up a combustion engine just to buy a candy bar
That sounds amazing. I'm a 15 minute drive from the nearest grocery store, 25 minutes if I actually want more vegan options than just beyond beef in the freezer aisle. It's hell, and it could be worse.
"i did a little digging in my own mental illness" is so good 😂 and true
Honestly one of his best lines ever
"The secret is to have a neighbor group chat for DoorDash and split the fees," in chat, I'm dying. It's getting to the point one day they will literally go pick up the food themselves and pay DoorDash a little less. "The secret is to go pick up the food yourself so you do not pay triple the cost and then tip nicely to not have your food have a pube added."
This is a great idea for life hack video lol!
Yup the trick is to lie to your idiot neighbors, do their shopping and get them to buy your groceries for you
Sounds like there is a pretty clear reason for them doing this that you aren't disclosing just so you can make fun of them lol
I genuinely agree with everything NL is saying but preceding "I hate the puritan Andys" with "You can do it if you want you just have to feel bad about it" is hilarious.
he was so right for that tho
he really is coming back after the weekend as a catholic
Doordash discourse be like "I'd rather ruin myself financially than overcome the slightest inconvenience when preventing my own starvation"
I order doordash and I'm a picky eater.
The elusive +4 rant bait.
its REALLY about a lot more than that and that's really just insultingly reductive to peoples genuine experiences. Their own rationalization might not stack up, i'm not saying that it does, but people don't just do things for no reason, unless you broadly believe that some people are just moral failures where others aren't. I'm also not suggesting some of these people aren't just entitled, have some disposable income, and want tasty food. But mixed into this conversation are people who genuinely struggle with specialized anxiety disorders that are in no small part exist due to the ambient existential dread that's taken hold of ALL generations. The people who are entitled or not are all doing things for the same reasons, fundamentally. People are at large more disassociated with the most basic social structures in their lives than ever. Because of unforeseen consequences of the information age, the degradation of the economy and the corruption of the institutions people are supposed to place their faith in, people feel jaded and like no choice they make practically matters (because in many senses, they don't. If you save 450 dollars on door-dash in a given month, in all likelihood, the statistics say that money will just go to other, similar expenses or washed down the infinite Cost of Living drain.) So does the whole situation really boil down to stupid people wasting their money for no reason, because they are lazy? Ignoring the fact that MOST of these people hold down one or multiple jobs and side hustles because that's the bare minimum required to survive in most places.

He should honestly go full egg
People who cannot cook are really acting like DoorDash is the best solution.
I'm so confused, how can people not cook? I was never taught to cook as a kid, but I figured it out myself. Now I follow recipes when I'm trying to learn something new. Why is it not possible for people to salt a steak and throw it on a hot pan and make a bowl of rice? And if you're feeling crazy you can boil some broccoli and you've got a meal.
@@m4r1o148 i had a spine injury while living alone & i still fed myself, its kinda annoying to listen to people be like "sometimes my dopamine dips a little low & therefor i speak for all disabled people"
actually you know what -- when i had paralytic episodes hit me on the way to go feed myself & i was *actually* too crippled to feed myself I didn't go "time for some doordash" because the thing making me too disabled to put a cup of noodles in the microwave was *also* making me too crippled to go out of my building to get the food out of the snow before it froze/got stolen. I'm p sure the venn diagram of people who are disabled enough to not be able to cook AT ALL but aren't too disabled to receive shipments is so small as to not be worth talking about

@@nonpondo_the longest thing is honestly waiting for the shit to defrost and you can do other things while it does
i work at trader joe’s and it’s literally fucking built for these people with multiple options for if you want to step up your game. portions are generally for 1-2. there’s huge frozen selection with a variety of sauces and condiments _literally on a mini shelf above the freezer next to the food it’d pair well with_ it’s so braindead. then there’s also fresh dinners that have faster cook times but cost a couple bucks more. it all ranges from “fine” to “actually pretty good”. if you feel adventurous, there’s TJ’s fan accounts with recipes that are limited to 5 ingredients. it’s the grocery store for people that have no intuition about food.
The single serve frozen indian food at Trader Joes is fantastic, absurdly easy to make too. Pretty much always keep a butter chicken in the freezer. I only wish I didn't live so far from my nearest TJ's, living in walking distance of one would be a dream
@@vincenttorrijos9680 fantastic? let’s relax now. it’s good! quite good for a frozen meal and especially for the modest price. that’s about as far as I can go in my praise.
Bro the lady saying she doesnt play with her kids is batshit
Parental resentment any% record holder
@MaxwellKasper legit she got that shit done by like 3.yo
She literally did a million other creativity developing things. It’s like saying if you don’t do specifically Macaroni art with a kid then you should get CPS sent on you. You are definitely making assumptions about parenting and what it’s like.
@@tatecarter60Shut up nerd
@@tatecarter60Bro, its playing with your kids and their toys when they ask you to. It's not that hard. No one mentioned CPS, but go off, man.
The banter is S tier, but the gameplay is just straight blueballing. Librarian knows what's good.
No bros you don’t get it, you don’t understand. It costs me 50 bucks to buy food that feeds me for 3 days, why would I do that when I can get food that feeds me for part of one day off of DD for 38 bucks?????
Especially when you include the 60 dollars of gas its going to take to fill up my 4 ton SUV on the way there AND on the way back. I can't afford that buying two slices of bread EVERY DAY??? Like what crack are the rest of these guys smoking, bro?!?!?!
I couldn’t handle the I want to buy 2 pieces of bread at a time guy. Just put it in the freezer like old people if you really don’t want to waste any bread
i put my bread in the freezer and it actually works fine lol. i buy groceries for one and i dont eat much. i have a chest freezer filled with leftover foods, and it’s great. if i want a burger i dig out my frozen burger buns that i bought 3 months ago that are still good. it just works.

25:45 - “Imagine having a kid and not rocking with it” had me dying
easily the best part
Oh come on, she established a culture in her household where adults dont rock back and forth !! 😂 What a fucking lame ass mother.
my ex was severely depressed bc of addiction & it caused her to get addicted to doordash and genuinely kept her poor for several years, she'd doordash like $100 of food cuz shed get an order from the same place she always ordered & itd be inedibly gross, like it is every time bc some food doesnt work for delivery, & shed have to just throw it away and order from mcdonalds, several days a week.
and people who are like "doordash is neccesary for disabled people you dont understand!!" drive me fucking crazy cuz the thing is -- do you know what she did before doordash existed? when she got hungry she'd whine about how she didn't feel like getting up, and then at some point she'd just get up anyway despite not feeling like it cuz at some point the biological need for self-preservation beats out non-hospitalization-worthy depression, and she'd go out to get like a like $3 hotsnack from the gas station, and more than half the time the simple act of being forced to leave the house actually made her depressive episode abate
doordash is BAD for depressed people!! its straight up predatory. but people be out here like "you don't GET IT bro, heroine is GOOD for addicts bc it makes me feel good, its problematic to want people to get clean"
I agree with a lot of what you said, but it’s not always a temptation turned addiction thing for disabled people. And some people legitimately will starve to death before they can get up and go outside for food. For example, I have a medical condition (dysautonomia) that can cause me to lose energy in sudden, weeks long ‘crashes’. During that time period I lose a lot of weight because I can barely get out of bed, and if I do I’m fainting because of my blood pressure. So I don’t cook for myself or get food in general. As I eat less, my condition worsens, and as my condition worsens, I eat less. Generally the motivation to live is there but the physical ability to get up and eat isn’t. Often I’ll even be given food that I physically can’t eat because I feel so nauseous from being food deprived. I think in this case DoorDash is a good third option because often hyperpalatable foods can help me overcome that nausea, whereas the rotting food in the fridge will not and I’ll just continue to starve. Like it sound so stupid and makes me seem like this pitiful helpless child of a person, but that’s kind of just the stuff I have to deal with lol. Also I have low income and am responsible with my money so I don’t allow DoorDash to become an addiction. At my worst I’ll order it 2-3 times a week. I haven’t ordered in a few weeks thanks to the support of my friends and family, and the fact that I have been eating prevents me from going into those crashes where I’m alone in a house for weeks with no will to eat.
op, depressed is not the same as being physically disabled. do you understand that? you made an argument that said "i don't like when people use disability as a reason" and then used what you describe as "non-hospitalization-worthy depression" as an example, which is just confusing. as the commenter above described, a lot of people quite literally cannot leave bed- not due to mental health, but because we are so extremely ill that it would put us in danger. if i'm doordashing or getting delivery it's because i physically can't get out of bed. i have a very severe autoimmune disorder that makes me violently ill and faint in natural sunlight, as well as a degenerative muscle disease that makes it extremely difficult when paired with light sensitivity to even go out to a car without collapsing. in no world could i walk to go get food, or god forbid drive when i'm at risk of passing out for every second i'm outside. i have to rely on someone else to get through my day to day (i don't have access to a wheelchair or other mobility aids) and the rare occasion i have to have doordash etc, it's because i really, truly cannot do anything else. the original comment just feels hateful towards disabled people for the sake of it.
@@wormworm580ok, but why are the food in your fridge rotting tho?
@@nearlynightmost people who are disabled are depressed -- depression is the #1 cause of disability, & most forms of disability also cause depression. so if being depressed is a good predictor of door dash being bad for you then door dash is bad for most disabled people
@@wormworm580sounds like you need live-in home aide, not doordash
The “DoorDash keeps disabled people alive” arguers really think DD has existed for decades and isn’t a fucking modern luxury
I mean, to be fair, disabled people rely on plenty of very modern services and pieces of technology to get by when for other people said things might merely be a luxury. And before a lot of those services/conveniences, lots of disabled people would have to do things like skip meals or go without basic needs or miss work. Maybe it's not like that for doordash, maybe there is some obvious alternative that offers the same level of accessibility and isn't wildly expensive. But I don't actually know what it's like to have mobility issues that make going to the store an ordeal, so I don't feel super comfortable assuming that what is unnecessary for me is also unnecessary for others.
@@mooncrime4998 Twitter users are not in the business of putting themselves in someone else's shoes and would rather get cheap dunks lmao. They see a few people get way too defensive about having an expensive takeout habit, and then disabled people who might actually get some real value and convenience out of grocery delivery eventually get roped into the discourse and that makes for a lot more fodder just due to general ableism online.
@@mooncrime4998 It would mostly be family members taking care of disabled people before stuff like Uber, DD, and working remotely became an option. Modern services free up those family members to no longer be as burdened by their role as caretaker.
@@mooncrime4998delivering groceries once a week is way less expensive than delivering doordash everyday
As a disabled person, I feel compelled to say that there are 100% times I wouldn't have eaten and could have potentially died if not for door dash. Cooking is a physical and fire hazard for me as I pass out when exposed to heat. And some days i can't even stand upright long enough to get anything ready to eat. When I don't eat I get migraines, which make my blood pressure spike to scary numbers, which is a stroke risk. It's not often, but if I'm alone when that happens it's terrible, and Doordash is a solution.
As a middle class 23 year old who still lives with his parents. Soooooo true!! Sooooo true!
Bro, no need to call me out like that
Listen I’m just saving up for a down payment on a house (a lie)

I recently deleted my Twitter account and every time I see a “did you see this tweet” vid I become even more grateful I made that decision
installing a few extensions and only following a few art accounts has been the solution to my Twitter-induced blackpilling, alongside only opening it to look at specifically whatever picture or two that were posted.

The aggravating part is that these are the same people who are like "this is the worst recession ever food is so expensive" THEN STOP USING A MIDDLEMAN THAT DOUBLES THE PRICE OF THE FOOD JESUS CHRIST
I mean. You still have to go to a supermarket and man, its so fucked here. Still much cheaper than ordering food. But sometimes its close. Like i spent $28 (plus like 45 minutes getting ingredients and 1 hour in the kitchen) buying ingredients to make 3 burgers (no leftovers). I can get 2 decent quality burgers for that price from a few places. Its so frustrating. Food sucks.
@@Me-ui1zy can you itemize that? $28 to make 3 burgers where i live would be a big skill issue

Not the same people
The costco guys seem like a dad and son having a genuinely good time. It's sad that that's now apparently all that's necessary to invite hateful responses
I worked at an Amazon facility, and the amount of people making $15/hr ordering DD and UE was genuinely heart breaking. Single moms working, spending $25 on McDonalds ALMOST DAILY.
sounds like working minimum wage makes them too tired to buy and prepare food for their kids while also doing everything else that needs doing
@@Ozone946more like they’re in those jobs because they are too dumb to get a better job or manage money
All these stories make me inclined to be believe that all of this is DDs fault rather than the individual consumers. DD found an exploit, got people addicted when it was artificially cheap, then slowly raised the price as investors money ran out. It sucks how much learned helplessness there is nowadays, but that’s all by design. Learned helplessness helps corporate profits rates
@@soymilkman at what point do individuals have to accept responsibility for their actions? Nobody tricked them into DD or UE, they know what the prices are and choose to pay them. It’s not fentanyl, laziness and convenience are no excuse for poor decision making. Sometimes poor people are poor primarily because they’re just dumb and can’t plan ahead.

Is it possible to be a lazy fuck and order breakfast without pathologizing it? I have anxiety but that’s not why I ordered breakfast, I don’t want to go anywhere.
yeah u just have to say ur a lazy fuck willing to spend it money on overpriced food. I'm mentally ill AF but it has nothing to do w/ me being a lazy bitch wanting McDonald's straight to my door lol
I mean the answer is no because pathologization is a part of the overall conquest of "rationalism." Everything must have a reason beyond your control. The most important thing now is to take away your agency.
When people tell you you have ADHD, depression, autism, etc. these are mostly unhelpful terms that exist to put you in a box and make it hard to get out. The view is that people broadly are "maladaptive" and consequently neither have nor deserve freedom, but instead subjugation to an academic-finance duopoly composed of doctors, therapists, CEOs etc. looking to make a quick back and also in turn destroy your actual existence.
Now that said, knowing I was suicidal and going to the therapist made me not suicidal, but also the important thing to most people was that I was suicidal at all. I couldn't be allowed to be suicidal, you aren't allowed to be outside the purview of authority, and that's what pathology is.
I think unless you're complaining about prices of food "these days" based on having door to door delivery service nobody is going to complain about whatever you're doing
Holy fucking based
Fr bro. This pathologizing of every single little thing is so deeply annoying to me. If you can afford it, go for it. Keep snacking king 👑
The wheel and the girder are hitting the same part of my brain as edging
Users of food delivery services should remember that this guy's favorite activity is driving to Costco and shopping all day
If anything living alone made it EASIER to buy food. Some people relied on caretakers too much in their teens/young adult years and it shows.
Yes, no shit 😂 id be way better at surviving and thriving in a post apocalypse, but that ain't happening.
23:38 I thought this was crazy, but now that I think about it I never played with my parents. I just never asked them. It might have to do with having an older sibling

I feel the way about Computers (including smart devices) as I do about NL's doordash take tbh. A lot of people just have it in their heads that anything even slightly below the surface is some Computer Hobbyist-tier skill that's completely irrelevant to them, even stuff like knowing what a "file" is. Even a *slight* amount of effort, the stuff my 80-year-old tech-illiterate uncle can do, will greatly expand what you can do with your computer. Somehow we've gotten to the point where a lot of people who consider themselves "techie" see their devices as conduits for platforms instead of tools they have agency over.
It's not that I expect everyone to be an expert or an enthusiast, it's that I see people needlessly making things hard on themselves because they've been convinced that it's basically magic and they need to be of some sorta Techie Caste to know how to sideload an app for work or whatever.
This. A thousand times this. People basically let tech companies bully them around and are convinced they can't do anything about it. Like, just watch a TH-cam tutorial bros.
You should expect everyone to be an expert on the devices that they use every day and that their everyday existence depends upon. There are very few activities in modern life that do not revolve around a computer operating as intended.
If you don't know how to use a computer competently, or operate and do basic maintenance on a motor vehicle, you have problems. At least know how to locate the information on how to do it if you aren't practiced in it.
As a former teacher gen z are dead ass tech illiterate and it blows my mind actually because even as a younger millennial we were always go to tech support for the entire world and seen as some sort of technological savants because we could google error messages. I expected gen z to be even better than us coming out of the womb with it basically but so many of them are like boomer-tier and can only use a phone and even then just specific apps. Do the zoomers even jailbreak anymore? Cause first thing I ever do when I get a phone is unlock it and flash custom software.
@@soasertsusthe problem is that tech is made to be for everyone instead of anyone. there's no incentive to learn unless you're invested into deeper technology because the functionality is provided free of knowledge.

@@AttacMage me when i ”tar -czvf”
As someone who lives alone and orders delivery too much (my only defense: I do not have a car) I feel intensely called out, but it’s mostly fair. It really is past time to start getting groceries more regularly and cooking for myself more.
At least you recognize it which is leagues better than a lot of people that order too much DoorDash
If you can afford it and are okay with spending x amount more on food then who cares? I'd honestly do the same because I'd rather spend the 20 minutes to an hour doing literally anything else. I can't justify the price so catch my ass eating a lot of soup and the occasional frozen pizza.
here's a tip: Groceries delivery. Yeah sure it cost me an extra 10$ on the 400$ I spent each month on groceries but at least I can comfortably sit at home and take my time picking everything I want. I had a time where I didn't do any groceries for about 3 years living off uber eats and local pizza chains, I probably spent double if not triple what I'm spending right now for basically the same effort.
@@bobbobby5200Oh yeah, I’ve done that too and it definitely helps make it easier to just get it done.
If your depression is so bad you can't go to the grocery store and pick up frozen meals, go to the self-checkout so you don't have to interact with anybody, and then throw it in the microwave for 4 minutes. You don't need to be inventing a new system to microwave frozen meals, you need to seek desperate help to deal with your depression. It should be a wakeup call for you that you can't even microwave a frozen meal because of your depression and start actually doing something to help your situation.
Yeah, I don't see how "Door Dash is great! It's enabling my crippling depression that doesn't let me get out of my house!" is a good argument
@@aloisio5103 I strongly agree. This is coming from someone with clinical depression; getting out of the house and cooking my own meals was one of the breakout points to getting healthier. Not only mentally healthier, but physically too. I was eating healthier, feeling better, losing weight, and spending time doing something that gave me a sense of accomplishment when I cooked some bussin meals. "DoorDash keeps me in my cycle" is a terrible argument.
that’s a really good point. instant pots are great for when you’re depressed, because you can throw a bunch of stuff in a pot and it cooks itself. there’s this one meal i make that takes like 15 minutes and it’s way better than anything i could get off doordash. im gonna cook it tonight. you inspired me. (i havent cooked in a bit due to depression). thank you.
Okay but in North America this tracks. Just because it's largely a secondary industry doesn't make mental healthcare not a nightmare.
@@ChooopyOk, but I’m just genuinely amazed that cooking your meals helped with your depression.
Everyone says it does but for me it only makes it worse.
Used to get my lunch at work, Kroger, by getting the $1 bologna and cheese and whatever fruit I felt like getting. Then the fruit doubled in price and the sandwiches no longer exist. Now I eat whatever's available in the break room, usually nothing, or I eat, well, nothing. Even with a union I don't make enough to buy lunch five days a week
I love the pure ramp of anger, fills my soul
The McDonald’s stream in shambles 😭
The single sandwich thing is so funny, especially where I live where lots of grocery stores just sell a pre made sandwich
We are reaching bantering levels that normies cannot comprehend.
if you live alone i highly recommend getting a freezer not only can you do things like just have a big bags of frozen ingredients but also when you cook you can make more portions and then freeze them if you're not gonna eat them in the next couple of days, shits rly good
I think grocery shopping is something that parents need to actively take time out to teach their child when they are like 16 or 17 so they have the skills necessary to not get stressed out by it.
It's so easy too. Take them to a store and tell them "do you want this? yes? Ok pick it up. Do you think you'll want this later? Pick that up too" Yes they're going to be really annoying about it at first and pick up a bunch of junk food. Let them. Let them eat all the junk food and then feel like shit the next day. That's how you mature.
They really do. My little brother never learned, qnd our parents are gone (mom passed, dad is a deadbeat and bailed on us) and he just turned 21. Never been grocery shopping on his own in his life. Feels bad man. He wouldnt ever go with me, either (our relationship is a bit stressed right now) so idk how to get him moving that direction :(
Him going on these rants while doing something like spinning on a wheel or bouncing back and forth of girders is a new level of unhinged content ❤❤❤
the egghead is wrong on at least one part here: it is easier to cook for two people than it is for one
Now that's an unfortunate truth that is not talked about enough
Then meal prep.....
@@loosemoose5217 the "hard" part for me is not getting the amount of food right. Its just easier to motivate myself to cook when it's for someone else as well. If its just for me it can be slop, I'll eat it anyway
It loops all the way back round to having milkmen again. Saves delivery fees when the milkman delivers milk/bread/eggs for the entire neighbourhood at once on a regular basis. There are quite a few milk delivery services again in my town, which I hadn't heard of anyone doing for 20 years.
The way I see the doordash discourse is simply: as long as you are aware of the cost, spend your money however you like. Delivery isn't for me personally, but if you want to do it everyday thats fine, its not my money you're spending.
12:24 holy, that POV called me out harder than anything I've ever experienced online 😂😂😂
food delivery apps are only used in my household when i get emailed 50% off coupons (or better), so generally maybe like 10ish times a year
the occasional buy one get one free order will be done if it makes sense price-wise
Me when visiting my parents house: yeah dude I got that disease where I can only eat McDonald’s for dinner
In regards to the discussion @12:00
Grocery stores straight up DO offer individuals. If you go the fresh deli counter, you can request like 2 slices of each ingredient and then go to the bakery and pick up a bollio roll. The mayo and mustard is usually complimentary, so you can make a sandwich of dirt cheap.
I used to do that at a SaveMart for like $1-2 per day on my lunch break.
12:08 I just spent like 3 weeks alone (Family is out taking care of other family issues, I'm at home taking care of the cats) and I had like, 30 sandwiches in that time and 3 huge pots of chili as well as a handful of other things.
If you want "One sandwich" what you do is get 1 loaf of bread, go to the deli counter, and ask for 2/4 slices of meat, or meats if you want to be fancy, and 1/2 slices of cheese, or cheeses if you're feeling particularly creamy. Then with your extra bread just leave it out and then bake it, now you have croutons. Or better yet, people can get over it and just get 2 different meats, some tuna and some chicken in a can, and just have 5 different sandwiches during the week, all literally just "Pull out and assemble" and now you've got 2 weeks of lunches solved. Buy some chips to pair with it or some microwave steam vegetables if you're feeling healthy.
People don't know things like deli sections exist in most chains and think you have to buy the like tiny expensive Hillshire Farm pack, and most people working the deli counter will be happy to accommodate and give recommendations.
A lot of people also don't understand leftovers (Or worse, have conditioned themselves to never want leftovers) and will see cooking a meal for more than 1 as a waste instead of seeing it as something to have the next day, or pop in the freezer and heat up whenever in the next 2 months. I made a quite good chili, and it became like, 7 meals, as chili dogs, chili fries, and some put away. I had effectively a week of dinners/lunches and then I ended up with enough in the freezer it can be lunch in like a month, probably 3 lunches. Literal microwave meals that take like 3 minutes to pull out, heat up, it takes longer air frying the hot dog than it takes to get the chili warm again.
We're in a "One and Done" society, eat once, disregard the rest, use once, throw it out, etc, and that makes no economic sense and no time sense, we're not made to only make "One" thing, you cook like 12 meals to either split or have multiple times yourself.
Was confused about your fractions for a bit assume you mean 2-4 and 1-2 not 1/2 and 1/2 lol
@@ryanrichardson5844 You're correct, meant "around these two numbers" not fractions.
I just don't get that mom whos like "i don't play with my kids", its like bro thats the fun part, wait a few years and the kids will give you plenty of time to read your fucking books but when they are little and want to play thats like idk it can be fun to play with your kids
Yeah I was pretty surprised at that too. I don’t have kids but I babysit and it’s so great to be able to play with them, use your imagination, and just have fun. Being a kid is such a short period of your life, that it’s nice to indulge in that kind of thing as an adult
like the whole "igredients come in too big portions" is just bullshit, unless you're super frugal the pack of ham you get in the grocery store does maybe 4 or 5 sandwhiches its not a crazy amount, and if youre single just put the bread in the fridge, itll genuinley add like a week to how long it stays fresh, loaves of bread aren't as big as you think and worst comes to wost that shit cheap af, you can in fact just throw it out

10 self-flagellations per prior week's doordash orders on the first day of each new week
Nothing gets under my skin more than when people insert mental illnesses and other extenuating circumstances in discorse when nobody was talking about it in the first place. A lot of people get doordash because they're just lazy, but instead we have to have this whole side argument about how its useful for the depressed and disabled. Obviously, if you are afraid to leave the house or physically cant, you aren't the type of person that is remarkable in this made up scenario. You have a legitimate reason to be using the service. It's the people who have no challenges, yet still overspend, and then justify it that are getting attention, because they're behaving ridiculously! I'm sick of this diversion tactic where ill people making accommodations for their own lives are thrown into arguments, as if their existence justifies other's laziness.
Illness and disability get conflated with laziness all the time, which makes disabled people feel like they have to justify themselves whenever these arguments are made. Thinking that its all just genuinely lazy people "inserting mental illness and extenuating circumstances" into an argument for the sake of justifying their own actions, is super online imo because that entire conversation revolves around the context of twitter user mentality. Which is a different discussion altogether. I guess what I'm saying is that both groups of 'lazy privileged people' and 'disabled people feeling attacked' can exist at the same time and assuming everyone else is the former arguing in bad faith is, of course, going to make you see every counter argument in bad faith regardless of its real intent. Isn't that the exact kind of online mentality you're disagreeing with?
I feel like NL does this sometimes where he'll argue with twitter discourse at face value under the pretense that all of it is stupid and online, but by engaging with it at its level he just falls into the same mentality he's making fun of.
Two cents inserted bc a lot of the comments on this video have reddit energy
@@kingdomheartsrugrats But then there's also people who are only talking about lazy Twitter users, only to then get countered by other people talking about those with disabilities. The poster said that those with disabilities have legitimate use for the service, and I agree with that too. And hopefully without sounding rude, thinking that people use illness and disability to justify their own laziness is something I can absolutely see on an online context because with the growing acknowledgement of mental illness came a huge wave of undiagnosed people co-opting said illnesses. Doctors out here are seeing people who watched 2 tiktoks about adhd waste their time attempting to get a diagnosis that they don't have, meanwhile there are people whose parents are in outright denial of their serious mental illnesses is depressing. It's very cool to see how people are actually attempting to be empathetic instead of dismissive to people in these situations, but at least in terms of the coffee bit it really doesn't discount the fact that getting a coffee and a bagel for 2x retail price isn't worth it and it should be an imperative to work your way up to the point where you don't have to get it doordashed. I'll be rooting for them the whole way.
Or their neighbors could have just been rich. In that case good for them I guess.
In the UK there's 3 companies that do food delivery and there's always a deal happening on at least one of them so it honestly costs me like £1/2 more to order stuff most of the time
lmao the mom being so proud that she said no to her kids wanting to play with her is so cooked its unreal. some of my happiest times in my life were playing video games with my mom.
I have a very unique and privileged situation where I'm 30 and retired. I doordash about 20hrs a week to get out and do something. I would NEVER use doordash to order food becuse of the cost ( and I love driving my cars but I digress) and can't imagine anyone making any type of livable wage doing doordash as an actual job.
ive doordashed between jobs before it definitely does feels barely worth the trouble at times. from what i hear good regular dashers get tossed the orders from the premium tippers, but until you build that rapport with doordash you gotta accept all the complete dog orders that aren't even worth the gas and just eat the loss for your doordash overlord.
Librarian whadda hell dude I’m not even done watching the React Court Supercut, how are you putting clips out this fast

It’s more motivating to clean a house which is used by other people you love than to do it just for yourself. Especially when you don’t love yourself, but that’s a whole other kettle of fish.
11:26 shout out to all the farmers out there
NL singing Modest Mouse is what I needed this morning.
I work six days a week and door dash my dinner on the one day off. Its just me being lazy theres nothing else to it. I just want my one lazy day
listen, i work hospital night shifts, im not awake when grocery stores are open. could i change that? yes. am i happy with my situation? not in the slightest. am i offended by the takes in this video? absolutely not, im here +2ing as much as the next guy
This makes one realize so many people are completely insane in regards to some simple task. What do you mean more work is easier than less work??
If you can’t perform the simple task of making your own food, you simply can’t exist. Nothing short of severe disability should be obstructing you from doing so.
This is something everyone on the planet has done since the dawn of time - acquire food to consume. This isn’t rocket science.
Because doubling the portion of something you are cooking is not doubling the work. You don't need to get things out twice, the mental work is unchanged, cooking 2x rice takes 1x effort for example.
Maybe you are the insane one to be so smug about things you don't know?
I am so here for the modest mouse outro
I live in a big city and I decided to stop using delivery services a few years ago. Realistically, there are several restaurants within a 10m walk of my house. Sure, sometimes it's raining or there isn't sushi nearby. No one loves inconveniences but it's not difficult - I can walk down the road to order my own takeout.
It's totally fine to use these services !! but the people acting like it's a necessity are delulu
I was waiting for NL’s take on the CostCo Guys
We're gonna be seeing girder banter for years at this point
Lies of P all over again
I occasionally use door dash but no way in hell am I thinking to myself that it's a smart thing to do
imagine -2'ing the doordash monologue
couldn't be me, since i live in reality
my take is that people with some sort ot chronic fatigue/sensory overload thing shouldn't have to rely on doordash/instacart to not starve and that is part of a systemic issue. there should be better supports for disabled people so they dont have to bleed their money to a company with garbage business practices
usually i walk to the grocery store but I've had times that my executive dysfunction is so bad that i have no choice but to order groceries
also twitter argumentation is so braindead. people are able to put up a smokescreen of bad faith that confuses everyone into talking about the wrong thing. like i see some people in this comments section who are like "ugh why do people with extenuating circumstances have to insert themselves into these discussions when we're referring to YOU KNOW WHO" then you talk to them more and u realize they think disabled people are lazy
my grandma used to tell me about "calling the greengrocers", and how all the food for the week would be delivered. This was from when she was a girl, probably the 1930s in Los Angeles. I don't see why that couldn't come back, like pizza places never stopped delivering. 🤷
@@sycration 100%
@@sycration We have delivery groceries, it isn't lack of options, it's laziness and a desire not to feel guilty.
That “mother and child being rivals in a past life” is definitely just a reference to Dune, right?
The sandwich guy doesn't realize he could literally solve his problem by baking his own bread, buying smaller tomatoes/heads of lettuce, and going to the deli counter for his meat instead of buying the pre-packaged stuff.
The Doordash discourse seems to be composed primarily of people who just don't know how to cook. If you find yourself routinely throwing out extra ingredients you just need to look up recipes. Cooking for just myself is my favorite because I don't have to consider anyone else's flavor preferences and it takes less than 20 minutes for me to cook my meal and that includes cleaning up the kitchen and dishes before I even eat the food.
finding out at 14:27 there is a guy near me like this is so weird. if he lives in knoxville he can just walk outside and get good food immediately
I love the oppugn at H-Mart
someone needs to tell them about buying more than one bagel at once
You can't expect people to have the triple PHDs necessary to predict they will get hungry again.
seeing the discourse going big on twitter I knewww this would come lol
this one was an all timer
um, may i ask where the modest mouse outro is from? it's so good
my not-in-the-mood meal is microwaved beans. you make it is by microwaving beans. it costs 85c (pre-tax ig) and takes two minutes, and you will probably expire before canned beans do. not even condescending im just lazy as hell and it's a literal order of magnitude cheaper would recommend
I just buy a 24 pack of Ramen noodles, I normally always have bone or chicken broth in my fridge, ginger, sesame oil and such, and if I have anything leftover, onion or such, I just throw that in when I'm too lazy

I just realized how out of touch i am, because i "cook" for myself every day, and by cook i mean I heat up frozen food
I kinda forgot that people are doing more than that, like buying ingredients and mixing them and stuff
I sometimes order an extra meal when using doordash, but I make sure it's something that's supposed to be cold so it still tastes good later.

I haven't ordered food since the start of the year. food you make tastes better and costs less. Food waste is not a problem if you do the bare minimum of planning your meals all I have thrown out in the past 3 months is a single onion.
I'm only 26 but I remember the days of prince William being hot as fuck
there are some things that are harder to do as one person, like when i make soup, the smallest amount of portions for a soup is 4, that means my ass has eiher got to eat the same soup for 4 meals or i need to take up like 3 tubberware containers worth of freezer space for one soup,
One can of soup is a meal for one, unless your doing like portions of stuff plus a can of

The grocery store I worked as sold Pre-made sandwiches, BLTs, croissants, all that shit. Most of them do iirc.
I will just say I'd much rather cook/clean for myself and one other, not because the cleaning is easier but because it would motivate me to actually cook something and not just have tomato soup.
that guy is right that trying to shop and cook for single people sucks ass If you don't wanna eat the same meal 7 days in a row but I'm still not paying 50$ for one doordash meal. When I lived in Tokyo it was honestly super cheap so I did it a lot more though, I could get a full big dinner for like $10-$12 including the fees. Probably depends where you live how viable delivery is.
You can use the same ingredients in multiple dishes actually
