I love the fact that the term Spam for unwanted emails comes from the Monty Python skit.

This image is so old I thought the joke was how good the prices were.
seriously, 35 bucks gets you half a bigmac these days
It isn’t that out of touch with contemporary prices. Maybe 10 years at most, as a lot of the cost increase has been the past 5 years. Doesn’t mean the image isn’t older, just commenting on the price here.
A current restaurant serving Lobster Thermidor costs about 55$. While any place serving this dish is likely a high quality restaurant, it’s not until one obtains a michelin star that it becomes a 3 digit affair.
I’m sitting at work right now hungry. About half an hour ago I looked in my backup food supply and find only two things - instant mashed potatoes and Spam.
I think this is a sign. I mean, the picture is a sign.
Problem is I like my Spam like blackened on the outside which may piss off my partner.
I like my spam not in my stomach
Spam croquettes!
You can cook one blackened and the other brown, so you can have a “Spam, mashed potatoes and Spam” for lunch.
Scorched spam is good spam. Goes well with fried pineapple rings
(That should annoy enough people)
I want this menu as a poster for my wall
It would go nicely with my clock:
Gotta send a 24h timelaps of the clock
Dunno about a timelapse but here’s the current state:
That’s a very nice clock. Only legs move, not arms?
Of course. It’s Ministry of Silly Walks, not Silly Flailing Arms About.
My thoughts exactly. We’re already two, so there’s a market. Someone exploit our demand!
While not the same, I bet lobster tacos are pretty tasty.
But I don’t want any spam
Well that just makes ordering simple for you because you only have two options.
Let’s denote the prices of the components as follows:
Egg: ( E )
Bacon: ( B )
Sausage: ( S )
Spam: ( P )
We are given the following equations based on the prices of the combinations:
( E + B = 1.10 )
( E + S + B = 1.49 )
( E + P = 1.50 )
( E + P + B = 2.10 )
( E + P + S + B = 2.49 )
First, subtract Equation 1 from Equation 2:
[ (E + S + B) - (E + B) = 1.49 - 1.10 ]
[ S = 0.39 ]
Next, subtract Equation 1 from Equation 4:
[ (E + P + B) - (E + B) = 2.10 - 1.10 ]
[ P = 1.00 ]
Next, subtract Equation 3 from Equation 5:
[ (E + P + S + B) - (E + P) = 2.49 - 1.50 ]
[ S + B = 0.99 ]
We already know from a previous calculation that ( S = 0.39 ), so substitute ( S ) in:
[ 0.39 + B = 0.99 ]
[ B = 0.60 ]
Now we know ( B ) and can find ( E ) from Equation 1:
[ E + 0.60 = 1.10 ]
[ E = 0.50 ]
We have found the prices:
Egg (( E )) = 0.50
Bacon (( B )) = 0.60
Sausage (( S )) = 0.39
Spam (( P )) = 1.00
They got the joke wrong though
That last one sounds pretty good.
