How Not to go Hungry on Your Birthday

Another important chapter extracted from the Pissed Poor Peasant's guide to the life. Today we'll learn how not to go hungry on our birthdays in Perth.


To many out there, birthday is a big deal. Apparently, it is a special day that they think they are entitled special privileges just because they are born on that particular day some years ago. I don't think that way. Hunger doesn't recognises birthdays. The same goes for illnesses, fucked up drivers and death. When they come, they come. Birthdays also no give face.


Fortunately this time, the world generally doesn't agree with me. In this case, businesses are willing to curry favour with you on the pretext they want to celebrate your birthdays with you, by giving you goodies in return for the goodwill of future business you may do with them. We will be focusing on food, because there is nothing more important than fulfilling the base of the needs pyramid when it comes to being a real Pissed Poor Peasant in Perth. The general strategy is to claim food from nice FnB joints that allows you to do it only your birthday. Then later claim from the others who are willing to let you claim on your birth week, birth month or a few days close to the actual date. +- 1 or 2. Sounds pathetic I know but when that's what you get when you put a kiasu Singaporean and a hungry peasant together.


To cut the shit short, here are some vendors that offers to curb your hunger pangs.
