I heard if you go to the edge of our flat earth, take a massive dose of ivermectin, inect yourself with bleach and dose yourself with light 1 billion times stronger than the sun you will be cured of everything. Though that cure might be death as you fall off the edge and evaporate due to the strength of the light, but, hey your cured right. This is an off usage of the items described above.

During my tenure in college, had a professor that would write 10s or 100s of line of code to do things that could literally be done in one or two. Pointed this out to him a couple of times, not that I had been a dev for 15 years at this point. Everytime he squashed anything I said. Comes to end of semester project. Within 24 hours of him handing it out, myself and team handed in final solution, which absolutely worked and fulfilled all requirements. We all got a not completed at final grade. Found out later that only 3 people in the class got an A, and they were the only females in the class, everyone else got a not completed. Immediately after having a convo with the "professor" and the threat of convo with dean of students, suddenly everyone got a passing grade. What a piece of human garbage.

Not sure where you are near NYC, But I regularly buy 10lbs of chicken breast or boneless thighs for 1.99lb. for chopmeat I buy in bulk and most of the time for 1.99 lb at 10 lbs a pop. If I run out of the beef, can still get for 2.99lb. During shoprite sales I get enough canned veggies, pasta, tuna and tomato sauce/pureed for a year for under 200, then really all for the year is some meat, fresh veggies and fruit. Take the time and effort and you can save hundreds or a thousands a year or two on your shopping costs. Trader joes, king kullen and some others are the most expensive places you can shop, and when dealing with meat I will go to grocery store or the local butcher when they have a sale and stock up for months. I am single dad feeding 3, so every dollar counts in the end.
