To think that people living on welfare shouldn't be running off every five minutes for a new tattoo or piercing?

[allfurcoatandnoknickers1]

I'm probably going to get shot down for this, but I just had a little disagreement with a woman I know. She posted a photo on Facebook of a rather large tattoo on her forearm that she'd just had done. Last month she had skin divers put in her chest and hand. The month before she had another shit tattoo.
This individual is single and has two children. She hasn't worked a day in the last decade, but is living off the state. Am I being a bitch by thinking she should spend the money she receives on feeding the children and keeping a roof over their heads? I noted that she feeds her boys Pot Noodle for dinner but makes sure she's got her fags too. It just annoys me.

It's not a very good bun fight is it? Lacks originality.

[HotSince82]

Pot noodles are a rip off.

Tell her koka noodles are 25p in the home and bargain.

Its only for the kids after all. They dont need branded noodles FFS.

[Bluntness100]

I've not had a pot noodle in years. Ah the good old days,,,

Army skin divers people who don't wear wet suits?
I have a very strange image of this women's body covered in divers now.

I'm partial to a 'Bombay Bad Boy' now and again

[LakieLady]

I agree entirely, OP.

Poor people only get above their station if they're allowed to exercise choice. They should stop benefits and give them government-issue food parcels, full of wholesome stuff like beet-tops and turnips, and sanpro made from recycled newspaper. They could have old prison uniforms to wear and be forced to spend their time picking oakum.

I really want a beef and tomato pot noodle with a gallon of ketchup.
I'm not claiming benefits, so that's ok, right?

[PollytheDolly]

People on benefits should only use Izal toilet paper.

[SillySongsWithLarry]

I get more in welfare than my full time salary - DDs DLA, tax credits (with disability premium), DHs carers allowance and child benefits. And I have tattoos. People say 'you're working full time and have a disabled child to care for, I don't mean you when I'm judging benefit claimants'. Yes you do mean me. And ExH pays a very generous child support which is not included in the calculations. It's easy to be bitter and look down on people you know nothing about.

[DJBaggySmalls]

So this goat, is it like backyard hens for the lower orders? When do I get mine?

[LakieLady]

Izal's too good for them. Dock leaves will be fine for the likes of them

[originalbiglymavis]

Or their hands. Leaves if they are posh.

[allfurcoatandnoknickers1]

😂😂 The disagreement came about because she was moaning that she couldn't afford swimming lessons for her kids. I was just on my way to the pool with my daughter when this happened and she couldn't see the irony of flashing her new tattoo whilst moaning about being skint.
You are all totally correct, I'm a cunt. They should give people on benefits extra tattoo money. I'm sure the tax payer will be cool with this. Ffs.

[dontbesillyhenry]

Oh no Izal is branded- surely pound shop would have a cheaper more horrible version

[andnow]

[Bananalanacake]

What on earth are skin divers?

[heateallthebuns]

What's the thing about goats?

[PeterVincentVampireKiller]

What's a skin diver?

[ClopySow]

DISCUSTING.

[PollytheDolly]

Izal's too good for them. Dock leaves will be fine for the likes of them

True, true. But they should be made to recycle them. Thorough washing then boil for dock leaf soup. Surely better than a pot noodle?

[PortiaCastis]

It's entirely possible that the person in question has family that gift her money.

[FlaviaAlbia]

Happyandhungry must have had quite a job in 'finance' if they can state with authority that it's 60% of people on benefits who spend money on things they don't approve of
