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.

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.

Home EC for the win. Even if only girls take it, it's all the better... :-w

 

 

 

Yes, I'm definitely taking it next year as a continued course. (The first 3 courses are required.)

Single guy living by himself/with other bachelors. Those are the requirements.

well even if im 17 (18 on dec 18th) and that i live with my parents i do consider my self as a bachelor

 

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!!!

 

 

 

and you can talk with any ladies w/o having a gf being jelous

 

so cheer up! life is good even tho you dont have a girl with you

 

 

 

i have been single for more than a year and ya sometimes i feel sad and id like to be with someone...but most of the time i think: well that paycheck will stay in my pockets:thumbsup:

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.

...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:

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.

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.

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?

LOL hangover hockey..

My last year of college I think I only changed my bedsheets two or three times.

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:

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.

1 word: Bertolli

 

 

 

(Frozen pasta dinners that come in all different pasta types and flavors, and it t tastes like resteraunt food. 10 minutes on a skillet and your good to go!)

Microwave meals are the way to go.

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

Now I realize just how lucky I am to still be living with my parents. I just don't have to worry about anything.

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.

Although if the girl is reduced to saying "I'm not your Mom!!!" it might be a reflection on the guy and not the girl.

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 .

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 .

Take a look at your post and think about this: most guys dream about girls. Any captain obvious pics for this one?

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.

Chunky Stew/soup. I once ate 3 weeks straight on these alone.
