For those that continually use services like Uber Eats, Grubhub, DoorDash, etc., how does justify using the cost?

With fees and tip added, it's almost double the cost, the food arrives cold and wait time is longer than you picking it up yourself.

    Very relatable. One thing that I find helps me is 'unintentionally' starting with a tiny goal. For example, I might decide to fry some smoked tofu. Adequate on its own, so the deception is compelling, but while I'm here I should probably cut an onion, some peppers ... hey, broccoli would be good, and suddenly I'm into it and I've completely forgotten about the overwhelming inertia from three minutes ago.

    It sort of reminds me of trying to see faint objects in the sky by looking away from them.
