Let's pool resources. We will have -123 if we help each other out!
n0junk
I will help by sending an up vote. That has to be worth something.
Sarcasticbombastic
Probably shouldn't keep buying new phones and avocado toast - baby boomers

This was me for harvey. And after..

Just borrow from friends and neighbors and if you die you won't have to pay them back.
k4m1ownz
Where u located? What's your PayPal? I'll donate $10
JNeil
Me too @op
HoboStabWound
Possibly offer to help someone during the storm? You can help pull security if they help with water and food?

Fuck me too

Can't decide which to but with my $54 monthly stipend for Irma: my 1st CBD or the cheapest good booze. Can't manage both!
PresidentProTempore
It's okay, the stores are empty anyway.
seleneusagi
So accurate :(
spamwtf
just buy more money
BetterCakeFarts
Credit card and if you die, you don't have to pay the bill.
OpenPalm
The new American Dream. I live it, but I hate to look at what I actually BOUGHT, often.
kenobijuan
But if you don't. It'll take awhile to pay off of all that hurricane booze and ravioli

Even if your card is maxed out or something, try giving your lender a call. At least with bigger card issuers they likely have policies 1/2
l677908
in place for these types of emergencies. Worth a shot, and if you're getting stone-walled threaten to go to social media. 2/2
digitalutopia
Ah, but that would require having sufficient good credit to get one.
OlMuskybackatitagain
I'm in SFL rn prepping for Irma. If you're in the Dade area, DM me and I'll drop some stuff off. Seriously.
DedWexMyth
That's a 10 pack of ramen. It might suck, but if shit gets bad you can eat it raw. Might have to steal alcohol though. (Don't steal alcohol)
Pooprocketpower
Just steal the alcohol.
DedWexMyth
Ok, steal the alcohol, but you better grab enough mixers to make hurricanes.
ereh5dam4lla3era2ew1
Or when you go but you're too late because everyone already bought everything
raider111111
Seriously people, it's really easy to just prepare for these sorts of things. I have months of food and water supplies. Just buy a little 1/
heretolaugh
He/she doesn't even have 2 bucks in his account... doubt there's enough extra money to be buying a month of food.
raider111111
He doesn't have 2 bucks NOW; It's about priorities. You can choose not to get that 6 pack or eat raman. A can of green beans costs 39 cents
raider111111
extra each time you go to the store; maybe a can of green beans, or a gallon of water. Don't wait until the store is upon you to prepare. 2/
digitalutopia
"little extra" lol!
Burghguy
Have you tried not being poor?
TheAsterite
Don't need to be poor to live paycheck to paycheck. we call them idiots.
muhvitus
You don't but it helps a lot!
Warune
Try turning it off and on again.
Harryurhandsrfreezing
BklynPunisher
No shit! Why don't poor people just stop being poor? You're a genius!
SvprHanc
This seems like the best/most helpful solution.

5/5 Would take advice again.

I tried that one time I really liked it but sadly it didn't fit in the budget
MisterTrashPanda
This. Follow this guy's advice and you'll be fine.
VoltageXL1
You shouldve thought of that before you became PEASANTS!
bucketofsarcasm
Nah, I haven't. Thanks, man, I'll try it out.

Have you tried spending less on candles?

This gif feels so under appreciated right now
attofreak
That whole show in under appreciated.
Harryurhandsrfreezing
Too much avocado toast, OP? The struggle is real.
UsernameNotTakenYet
It's so good tho
GeneralBullshit
this FUCKING AVOCADO TOAST, NOW I GOD DAMN HAVE TO TRY IT BECAUSE OF ALL THE MEMES, but rly tho, is it good?
DEFCONwhite
Imo warm/hot avocado is one of the worst things I have ever tasted. . I like it ice cold with salt only.
Harryurhandsrfreezing
Warm toast, fried egg, cold avocado, spring mix, balsamic... Homelessness.
hamsterofhappiness
This sounds a lot like US politics right now.... I'm gonna go cry into my avocado toast and student debt notices....
dalthejigsaw123
Lmao!!
5dashHashtagKill
1/2 Harvey victim here: Depending on what you have around the house, you might be able to rough it a few days. Make some creative meals ...
imjustheretobitchaboutpeople
I went 3 weeks without power after a hurricane, survived fine, but I had a BBQ. Basically just cooked all the meat and rice after a 1/2
imjustheretobitchaboutpeople
2/2 few days and fed the whole neighborhood. Had a lot of canned food and bottled water already though (I don't drink tap water).
5dashHashtagKill
2/2 and follow folks advice on water containers - any tubs or bottles you can fill & freeze will be able to pull double duty if power quits
digitalutopia
Totally misread part 1 there - thought you were trying to say that you were half Harvey victim. And I'm thinking how the fuck does that work
yay4me
There's no water anyway.
Obigelo
Can't you like drink the hurricane water
IMoveWithTheEleganceOfAnAfricanElephant
I can't imagine there's anything wrong with the tap water at this point in time. Can't you just...fill some containers?
kalkail
Triple layer garbage bags in a garbage can or cooler and fill with water. Remember to sanitize: 8 drops of bleach per gallon of water.
Gaelwyn
I've always asked the same thing. You know where you live, buy plastic containers in advance! In CA we just hide water around the house.
Gaelwyn
Because you don't get warning with earthquakes.
yay4me
If I had the containers! I've only got one bathtub.
Tilted9000
Actually that's about 100 gal. Of water your bathtub can hold if you can seal it the water should be ok.
cyno01
Fill the tub, seriously.
PresidentProTempore
Make sure you fill your bathtub so you have water to flush the toilet. We had no water for a week when ike came through.
PrimeSpark
In all seriousness, when the weather starts getting rough turn off the valve to your water heater and you can drain it for ~60+ gallons.
laughinginpublic
Cups? Bowls? I would fill anything that would hold water... anything is better than just a bathtub. Good luck!!
Bmxtucker
Ziplock bags, trash bags, tarp, old soda cans/bottles from just about any trash can? The human body is like 80% water or somthing. Drink up.
FuckingPrude
Not a joke, use ziplock bags and Tupperware. I personally freeze them so I have ice and then later water. Best of luck.
Dustybin314
But water expands when it freezes, so you are storing less water by freezing it.
FuckingPrude
Yes. But filling any empty space in your freezer with ice keeps your food much longer than a half ass filled one. It serves two purposes.

"Just stay at a nice hotel in Orlando, and while you are there, eat some cake" modern Marie Antoinette
digitalutopia
Fun fact - that's actually mis-attributed.
n8wishim
It still does serve the purpose. All historic lines from >100y ago might be false, you still gotta work with them.
digitalutopia
Oh, the line is perfectly legit - I just think it's also important to correct mistakes in attribution. It's from Jean-Jacques Rousseau's/1
digitalutopia
embellished 12-volume autobiography, to which he attributes the line to an unnamed princess. At the time the volume with the line was /2
digitalutopia
written, Marie Antoinette was all of about nine. /3
OlMuskybackatitagain
Boil some tap water. Put it in a container. Put in the fridge and freezer. Save for when the storm hits.
cyno01
Why boil?
horrorhoe
Some places don't have safe tap water. As someone from the Pacific Northwest it seems weird, but my gf's home down can't drink tap water.
JHawke
We're speaking about the western world right? Not africa.
ProjectSatan
yeah. there are tons of places all over america that dont have regular safe drinking water. like flint michigan still.. still...
Wombatish
Boiling doesn't help with a lot of the more common water system issues. More likely to have a problem with lead or chemical runoff than *c*
Wombatish
*c* coliform. Though coliform is slightly more likely to get worse enough (systemically) to matter.
Wombatish
Also, this presume city not well. Well is like the exact opposite. That said, well in flood is also real situational, from a-ok to fucked.
