Maybe she already has plenty of food at home.

75- are living on just the basics? If not, you should, so you can be grateful just like how you said op should feel.

80- I'm incredibly grateful, because for a long time I only did have the basics, and I was lucky for even those. Reminding others to be thankful for what they doesn't mean I'm unaware of my own fortunate life. So, in conclusion, **** off.

*for what they have, rather.

Yeah, there is a large scale of what is considered "poverty," so OP may be at a different area on the spectrum than you might realize. My mother and I live under the poverty line. We have a house with electricity and some luxuries, but there are months where we can't afford to pay rent or hydro because we're living on one income. My point is, you can still be poor even if you have some luxuries, so YOU quit bitching and research what poor really means, and leave the guilt trips at home. Lawyered.

If you can't pay rent some months, I'm guessing you're not scrambling to fund money to go out for coffee, which means if this person were bitching to you, you might find yourself less tthan sympathetic to their plight. Practice reading comprehension an try understanding what I was saying instead of

Deciding I may have said something you didn't really understand, so you should be offended by my statement. Ignorance is easily offended, try to understand instead what someone is saying before you think you're in a position to attack their point of view.

Also, I didn't even have the luxury of a roof over my head, unless someone was able to scrounge for a motel room, and my baths were taken in the local fast food bathroom sink. I've done enough research, thanks, and I was nowhere near true poverty. That's saved for places in India and Africa.

Most likely Tim Horton's, she is from Canada.
