Holidays. I’m 50 and I have absolutely come to hate them. Can’t really afford to celebrate or get gifts, so I resent them for existing and I hate hearing about others’ pleasant experiences with them.
Last year when I was hitting the food bank so I could survive, an obscenely rich friend sent me a text message “I’m heading for a 2 week cruise this Christmas, where are you going?”
She buys a full $32 cut fruit platter, eats one chunk of pineapple, puts platter in fridge until it rots into slime and then has her maid discard it. She’ll buy a 12 pack of bagels, eat a quarter of ONE bagel and throw the other 11 straight into the trash.

going to your house to eat the food sitting around while you’re at sea.

Really.
