    It might as well cost $1000 if you are barely scraping by.

    All this tells me is you’ve never been inside the home of a poor person, let alone a poor person who is also suffering from addiction. If they have a home at all.

        This just tells me you’ve never been inside the house of a poor person. If you think they have a tv at all.

          The joke is literally about an out of touch rich person not knowing what things cost and scoffing at an expense. “It’s one banana, Michael. What could it cost? $10?”

          They’re not disconnected - at least not based on that comment. Maybe they’re a piece of shit who knows? But this comment is specifically NOT what you’re saying.

          I get why you were upset but it is not what you think it is. Put the pitchfork down and take a beat. This is a misunderstanding, you missed a joke and that’s fine. But now it has been explained to you.
