Militaris Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Brings back memories from my university days The side of a computer case makes a excellent table. I use to eat most of my dinners off one. It provided a nice flat surface which I balanced on a pile of stuff. Learn to cook and only make 1 dish to clean. Roasts are good because you chuck everything into the oven then bugger off for the next hour. Clean the pot when it is still hot otherwise all the fat would go sticky, in which case leave it in the oven and hope someone else wants to use it. It is difficult to live off the "Meat only diet". You start to feel like crap after the second day. It is possible to live off the Pasta and cheese diet. Do not worry about breakfast, most of the time you would still be sleeping at that time of day. Just keep a couple of bulk bags of nuts and chocolate near your bed for a quick meal. Learn the quickest route and discount routines of all the local fast food places. I use to live off pizza for 4 days a week. The toilet does not need to be cleaned. The floor does not need to be vacuum. The bathroom does not need to be cleaned. In fact, no cleaning at all is required. Just a quick clean of the kitchen bench unless you like getting sick. The floor does not need cleaning. Hard spirits like whisky works out cheaper then beer to drink. Buy a 1L bottle once a week, maybe a second one for the weekend. If anything looks like work avoid doing it. Eventually someone else would get so annoyed with it they would complete the task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusqi Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 You can get 4 cans of lager from Sainsbury's for 88p, so there's never any excuse not to drink. Wth? really? It costs me 56p to buy a litre of orange juice! Yea, my tip is to get a dishwasher. Mine has drastically improved the quality of my life. More than any money I ever spent on computers and games consoles and things. I also agree with the microwave meals thing. You know that you're just lying to yourself when you go to the supermarket and buy things that take more than 10 minutes to cook. You won't be bothered. For it is the greyness of dusk that reigns.The time when the living and the dead exist as one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That, sir, is a playboy. And as for the jeans, I've gotten a good 5 week stretch out of mine (then a few hours while they're in the wash ready for the next cycle of wearing) before they start smelling the least bit funky. I just posted something! ^_^ to the terrorist...er... kirbybeam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver_wits Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 ...A tip for every bachelorette: live together with a girlfriend. Not only does it have a certain appeal to single men (wink wink, nudge nudge), ... Too bad it doesn't work the other way around. You know... some girls are into that... BUT NOT ME! :ohnoes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueTear Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 You see, that's such a good idea that even my sister and her husband do that. But I'd quickly get bored with that.. I need variety!The trick is to have a big freezer and make foods that, in theory, last indefinitely in said freezer. Done right, you should be able to go at least a two or three weeks straight without cooking, never eating the same meal without having at least four other dishes in between. If you really want to get fancy, you make the food you freeze modular; It can be eaten with rice, or you could take some frozen pasta to the microwave (that's for speed, for taste, you fry the pasta in garlic or somesuch), offering some more variation. Done properly, you can take 3-4 jars out of the freezer, mix a little bit from each, microwave it, and have a ready meal. -This message was deviously brought to you by: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syal_antilli Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 if you dont feel like boiling water for ramen, you have 2 options. the first is eating it like a brick, just put th seasoning onn top. You second opption is to make more coffee then normal and just use that. I require hugs. Seriously, just give them to me, and youll see your little turtle again.

scootlaboot Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Well, being a bachelor is also about living on your own, and learning to take care of yourself while securing your place in the world. Here's a quick recipe: 1) Come home at 4am hungry 2) Set the oven to 200 degrees Celsius and pop in a frozen pizza 3) Collapse on the couch 4) Wake up 4-5 hours later 5) Remove the pizza-puck from the oven and challenge a housemate to a game of hangover hockey Actually, if you do that, you're probably a redneck. And what is wrong with being a redneck? On topic: Try using hamburger helper. If you choose your beliefs/lifestyle simply based on what your parents want, then you are a weak minded individual and are not even worthy of calling yourself a person.

Lenin64 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 My last year of college I think I only changed my bedsheets two or three times. indeed, I live at home and only wash my sheets about twice a year, if that. As long as you don't get them dirty, it's ay-ok. And as for the jeans thing- 5 weeks? holy cow. I usually only wear for 5 days :ohnoes: Command the Murderous Chalices!

Embraced Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Microwave meals are the way to go. P2P offers more and better ways of making money than f2p. That's one of the cons you just have to play with if you don't feel like having 1 bigmac meal less per month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oropher Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Now I realize just how lucky I am to still be living with my parents. I just don't have to worry about anything. what i like about being single is that i do not have a girl friend to tell me ''oh dont do this, this is stupid, go cut your hairs, you forgot to buy milk, IM NOT YOUR MOM!!! Wow, the gf's you've allready had must've been pretty bad if you talk like that about girls. Mine isn't anything like that.

Rebdragon Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I haven't washed my good pair of jeans in about 5 weeks, I only wear them once a week for about 5 hours though. Pfft, I've been wearing the same cargo's for the past three weeks, nearly every day. Still look as clean as the first day :-w . 5 days for a pair of jeens? 5 weeks for a pair of jeans!?!? :shock: :boohoo: guys if you want to get a girlfriend try to change that habbit lol Eh... there are more important things to worry about than wearing the same pair of jeans five times when it comes to dating, especially considering there are other pants to be worn :-s .

Necromagus Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 Ok, since it has started freezing here, time for some winter food... 1) Cut up some potatoes, carrots and onions in cubes and boil them in a pot, potatoes at the bottom, for about 30 minutes. 2) Fry up some bacon cubes in a skillet. Pour the water from the pot and add in the bacon and bacon grease. Mash the whole thing up with a potato masher. Can be eaten warm from the pot, cold, or refried in a skillet.
