New Years Eve this year. My gf and I were in Popayan, Colombia. Our first New Years together.

Turns out Colombians don't really celebrate New Years publicly, its more of a family holiday. Fair enough we thought we would go out to a bar, play some pool and get a meal. Wrong!

2 Restaurants were open in total. An italian place run by a European. The queue to get in for a meal was about 2 hours. Very small place and everyone knew that it would be the only place open before us. We also had just eaten there the night before too....

The other restaurant. An imitation KFC that was much much worse. Though they served beer (the one plus).

We get there at 9:55 pm, 5 mins before closing. We didn't even know it was open and thought we would have to join the 2 hour queue but we stumbled onto it after roaming the empty streets for an hour.

Can we have spicy chicken please? No
Can we have fried chicken? No
Grilled? No
Anything? Yes a burger.

We then proceeded to have the worst burger of our lives. It felt like it had been cooked about 3 hours before hand, was cold, and hard. Worse then anything I've ever had and that mcdonalds could ever put out. At least we had our beer though...

As we were finishing our AMAZING meal a small girl came running past us and then proceeded to throw up on our feet. No one helped her of course.

We then went back to the room and passed out like 30 mins later. Missed our first new years together and had the saddest & worst meal of either of our lives. Least we had that...!

Oh boy

Popayan is the last place you want to be in new year, it's basically the vatican, I am not kidding. Your girlfriend should had known better :P

Next time go to Cartagena, or even Bogota, or anywhere really, party doesn't stop until dawn.
 
In my old student apartment I only had an electrical stove and no toaster,microwave, grill or oven, so I used to pan fry bread for breakfast. Not that sad I guess.
 
I lost power for 2 days and made a sandwich by snapping apart the two layers of dry Ramen and spreading peanut butter between them.

It was honestly better than I expected
 
Sliced white bread and a glass of water. Only did it because my dad would tell me that is what you get in prison. He would tell me this when I was a kid so I would get scared and never do anything to land my ass in prison when I grew up.

Tried it one night for dinner even though my mom insisted I eat a proper meal that she cooked. It was a sad meal and kind of like eating a wet sponge. I got hungry later that night and ate the food my mom cooked.

Of course I later found out that my dad was lying.
 
As a college student w/o a car, its pretty depressing to be stuck at university snacking on a $1 microwaveable turkey dinner, you know the kind with two slices of processed meat, while the rest of your family is at home, eating a homely Thanksgiving spread.
 
Once in college I was having a dreadful bout with anxiety and depression and such, to the point where I couldn't really bring myself to leave my dorm. So I kept myself locked in my room and did nothing but sleep and watch Game Grumps :'D The only thing to eat was a jar of peanut butter! I lived off it for two (or maybe three??) days until was empty and I was forced to finally leave my dorm!

I eventually got help and I'm much better now. But yikes, that sure was scary in retrospect!
 
Once, as a freshman in college, I wanted some cheese snacks but didn't have any/didn't have any money to buy some. So, I spread out some corn flakes on a plate, grated cheese on top of them and put the plate in the microwave until the cheese had melted. Wasn't half bad actually.
 
I am in tears.
Thank you, GAF. You've given me the best birthday present anyone could ask for.

My saddest meal was eaten at a test site I was working 16-hour shifts at. My lunch box decided to stay home that day, so I had no food around. Everyone else was gone, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and scavenge for something to eat.

Appetizer: Paper.
Main meal: 7 stale gummy bears.
Dessert: 2 Tums and more paper.

When my shift replacement arrived, I ran out the door like a madman.
 
At a babysitter's house with a bunch of other kids, we were playing in the backyard, and a few of the kids were on swimsuits with some water about. Someone poured water down the back of the sitter's daughter's swimsuit. I was like 10 feet away when it happened, but I was blamed for it. Despite my insistence that I couldn't have done it and it wasn't me, I became the scapegoat and was forced to sit in a dark room. When dinner time came, they ordered pizza for everyone. I was given a sloppily constructed peanut butter sandwich. It was just bad peanut butter slapped on some stale bread, no jelly at all. Just peanut butter bread in a lonely dark room.

Why would anyone do that to a child? I'm still sad about it.

You should go get some bad peanut butter and stale bread. And throw it at that babysitter's face.

It's just water, she's a damn demon or something.

Cereal with water instead of milk when I was broke in college.
