whats the point of fat girls (ramen) if they aren't even hipster

Indeed sir.

But I'll say it if some dick is carrying on like they're rich on $17 an hour lol..... even in America that is NOT a high paying wage.

$17 per hour in the US is considered high paying by some lowlife standards.

a large number of the people here are low lives who have only had those kinds of jobs for whatever reason
