Question for foodies + injokes + awesomness

[trinityofone]

The only cheap place to eat near my new job is McDonald's, and having eaten there today, I can now say with certainty that I NEVER WANT TO DO SO AGAIN. So I turn to you, wise flist: can you give me suggestions for cheap, easy lunches I can make and/or bring? The office has a small fridge and a microwave, and nothing else, and I lack both time and culinary skill. But there has to be something besides bad turkey sandwiches (minus the "bad," my dad's suggestion) or yogurt (my mom's). Help?

And now, for a random PSA/in joke:

(Go here if you want to read the whole sorry story. *g*)

Finally, some links of awesome (most of which you have probably seen, but hey, I want a record):

+By charlidos: Joe Flanigan's Hair Picspam.

+By _inbetween_: David Hewlett Picspam (Scanners II and Desire and Hell at the Sunset Motel, including some of her trademark fabulous animations).

+And the glorious, glorious promo ads featuring Rodney in an elevator and John giving a lesson at pool: go here, then click the links on the right.

ETA: Even better, isiscolo pointed out that you can download both promos here. Yays!

My love, it is vast. Oh yes.

do you like rice? because it's almost too easy to cook rice using a microwave (takes about 15-20 minutes depending on its power, though cooking it with vegetable broth instead of salt water makes it tastier imo), and you can add vegetables all you like for the last five minutes so they'll still be crunchy and, you know, contain at least a few vitamins. and then just spice the whole thing up with some ready-mix herbs. or add a little butter or something. :)
