It turns out we all hate having to deal with lunch – 13 funniest (and relatable) things people said about it
A little while ago we wrote about how someone tweeted how much they hate using the big light and everyone else agreed.
Now this person – @katierpacker – has shared their thoughts on how irritating they find lunch and it’s turned into something similar on Twitter.
fine I’ll say it, lunch is the most annoying meal of the day. there are no clear guidelines and the options are mostly boring

And it went wildly viral and prompted no end of replies.
We’ve read them all – well, quite a few of them – and these funny, relatable, and occasionally both.
1.
it’s not a meal to savour. it’s a box-ticking exercise. it’s food for energy and not enjoyment. a pale and bloodless experience.

the way this is a fact that can’t be denied. it’s never “i can’t wait for lunch” but always “what the hell is lunch supposed to be!?”

A two hour moderate to heavy lunch with two medium glasses of wine should be the bare minimum

The French addressed this issue by upgrading lunch to the status of an afternoon dinner, and downgrading breakfast to a cup of coffee and a Gitane.

That’s why the meals should go “Breakfast, Breakfast, Dinner”

I gave up on lunch a couple years ago. I buy microwave meals for one now and have one every lunch. Cheaper than most lunch meal deals and it’s a whole meal that is zero effort or thought. Gives me the other 55mins of my lunch hour to reflect on how much I hate my job

I hate lunch so much. I hate trying to come up with lunches for my family, I hate trying to find lunch for me. It’s the worst. Sandwiches are dumb. I have so much anti-lunch passion.

Ooh, a club sandwich, how exciting! It's like a regular sandwich but with an extra slice of bread and cut into triangles!
Shut up, lunch. The closest you get to good is brunch and that's just because breakfast rules.

Just in the interests of balance and all that …
How can lunch be the worst meal when it is so flexible? It’s OK to eat most breakfast options as well as dinner options at lunchtime.
It is also quite OK to put a pile of totally random foods together and call it a picnic, or ploughman’s or smorgasbord.— Jennifer Robson (@RespPhysioJen) August 1, 2022
entirely agree… i think breakfast is easily the most boring meal.
Everywhere that sells breakfast foods… there is an egg in every single dish. cant avoid it.

Except they’re wrong, obviously.
