Today, I'm so broke after paying my bills, that I resorted to eating plain garlic butter from the pizzeria down the street for lunch. The worst part: to get the butter, I stormed in and angrily complained, saying they forgot to give it to me. I never even ordered a pizza. FML

Today, by being clumsy when putting my bread slices on a plate, I invented a sensational new type of sandwich: The Nutella-Salmon-Garlic Double-Decker. FML

Today, I cut my nice and tasty home-made sandwich in half to give to a homeless man. He tasted it, pulled an unimpressed face, and then stuck it in his pocket. FML

Today, I returned home to my parents' house, drunk. Hungry, I grabbed a slice of bread and some butter and took two mouthfuls. Five hours later, my mother woke me up and dragged me to the kitchen. In the middle of the table was a buttered, half-eaten sponge. FML

Since you didn't specify weither or not you had a toaster, I'm just going to assume your toaster charges you everytime you want to deposit bread for crispyness.

Ok, this has gone on far enough! Europe and America need to lift the sanctions put against Russia right now! People are starving!

Been there. My go-to broke sammich was iceberg lettuce and ketchup on one slice of bread, folded over. Not too much ketchup, though - that stuff's expensive.

Other condiments also work well. I've also been there and had mustard or ketchup sandwiches.

Today, my sister is furious with me and said i will never see my nieces again. Last weekend, while I babysat for her, I taught them the meaning of veganism and animal rights, even showing them a few videos about the meat and dairy industry, and how the animals are kept and treated. Now she won’t speak to me. FML
