    What kind of sicko (positive) pays for such expensive food then microwaves it like its a hot pocket? Wtf. I grew up far too poor to even try this.

    Also for the UK tories out there Stephen King is an english major and makes more money than any programmer or trade worker.

      Want to mention, from his In Writing book, he was writing Carrie in his laundry cupboard (didn’t sound like enough to be called a room more like a closet with appliances). Also even if that’s is his preference, sounds like he was suggesting a simple dinner. Make some fish for a quiet date, good suggestion if you’re not familiar with the oven. I don’t believe fish was always so expensive either, prices skyrocketed at one point, my mom used to buy chicken wings when money was low (80s), now they’re expensive as shit comparatively.
