Want to Feel Poor? Check Out This Years' Oscars Nominees' Gift Bags

“Alms for the poor, alms for the poor.” Oh, hello. I didn't see you there. I'm just begging on a street corner because gas prices have obliterated my savings and rent here has gone up 40% since last year. While not everyone is experiencing the intense strain of inflation, and lack of proper compensation, most of my peers are in similar boats. As we suffer through this financial hell, there seem to be reminders everywhere of what we don't have, and the mind-boggling privilege that some people do have. While many people were gawking over the Will Smith slapping Chris Rock debacle during this year's Oscars awards ceremony, there was actually something much more sinister occurring. We're talking about the Oscar nominees' gift bag. 

Twitter user @filmaroni shared the disturbing truth about the swag bag yesterday, and people are feeling, well, pretty poor about it. 

It's honestly wild to us that somebody could present this list of gifts as parody. But it's very, very real. Here's the source. We have something to say about nearly every item, but some of the most astounding prizes include the title of Lord or Lady, and that $1,200 session with life coach Kayote Joseph. Why in the world does anyone think that these stars need a life-coaching session? Do they lie awake at night thinking about which of their infinite options they should go with? Does having so much money stress them out? Can you feel my rage? Good. This rage, it seems, is shared with the rest of the plebians on Twitter. And boy, are they expressing it. 

One user pointed out that because these gifts are taxed, they're rarely accepted. Allegedly. 

Additionally, it seems the plot of land isn't what it seems.

These revelations aside, there's still plenty to riff on and pout about. 

Well, it's the little things…
