I always thought it was ends meat, like she is having trouble affording the worst cuts of meat.

No no no, it’s “ents meat”.

As in they are so poor they have to mix sawdust with their meat to stretch it.

She seems to genuinely work hard to put her kids first but never put away money on a car.


K. That’s the problem with these types of people. You need to invest in a strategy that will get you and your children out of poverty. Buying a fricking Xbox for your kids when you can’t afford a car doesn’t make you a good parent.

I thought ends meet meant, “you can’t get the end of what’s left of your paycheck to meet the bills”.

I don’t know. I always just said, “I can’t, I’m broke. Wanna just rent a movie and get pizza?”

At least I was honest.

The PBS Kids app wasn’t working and the other two kids wouldn’t stop crying.

If that's a 3,000 car....

That car in mint shape may be worth $800.

It's a Geo Metro in the post Geo years.
Had a three cylinder Suzuki engine. ...

Hope it works for them though

The kid should’ve just told his mom to stop getting pregnant with losers. She’ll probably let her new boyfriend use it to rob a bank
