look obviously i can make a sandwich or make pasta but i regularly fuck up basic things like TOAST and BOILED EGGS and even my beloved CHEESE ON CRACKERS that i do regularly. stuff above that, you're justr asking for total disaster, plus i am going to hate every minute.

i'm ok at cooking but i don't enjoy it really, only if there are other people involved. cooking alone is a p miserable process.

stick to what you can do or enjoy doing, why stress yourself out with the rest?
Because that's a really bopring approach. How does anyone ever learn anything or the world improve?
Cooking alone is, tbf, pretty rubbish.

cooking along can be kind of sucky, but if you have the right music on and the right drink you can feel like clive owen or some shit

When Em was away for a fortnight recently I cooked about 1/3 as much as usual.
yeah cooking w/ other folks is fun. actually cooking FOR other folks (even if they don't pitch in) is fun. cooking by yourself for yourself can be fun, but it is distinctly less fun than the other options.

yes, when the missus isn't home I usually just make a BLT or something, which is not really cooking (total cost = $4. in case you were wondering)

i mean...that is why i don't cook! because it's not remotely fun!

I mean, all you have to do is slice some cheese and put it on a cracker, there's no actual cooking involved

you should make your own crackers!

Yeah I don't get it frogbs are you charging the entire cost of each ingredient to each meal? Cuz that's some fucked up accounting.
― the prurient pinterest (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 16:22 (twelve years ago) link
trying to cut a piece of cheese can be hard. you end up with slices that are way too thin and some that are very thick. and some that are thick at the top, but are only half size. in the end, not a single piece will be satisfying.

haha okay that is not "messing up cheese and crackers", that is "an unavoidable side-effect of constantly eating cheese and crackers"

with the boiled egg incident, the egg actually boiled fine, but when i was trying to peel it, it wouldn't peel, and i somehow ripped the egg in half and the whole thing fell in the bin
it was my last egg :(

I have been playing piano for 25 years now. In my experience, it costs less for me to hear someone else play it, and they'll probably play it better. But it's more satisfying to do it at home where, hopefully, no one is listening.
