    Then you have people from the opposite end of the spectrum. One time I received “protein cookies” from a friend and it was just baked chocolate whey protein powder 🤣. You’d expect something like that to work okay-ish, but it was a very, very sad cookie with way too much sweetener.

      I don’t know how to cook for shit (I once set pasta on fire) but I feel like even my dumbass could figure out how to make that work. Motherfucker needs to refine their recipe.

        🤣. Htf does pasta even catch fire? There’s usually moisture at all times.

        Well I will say that the cookies were safe to eat at least. I think they are in the process of making it work atm.

          I managed to boil the water down a tad bit too much cause they weren’t softening, some of them were stuck to the side of the pot and caught fire. From there it was a simple matter of energy burnoff.

              In our old office we had a stove in the break room. A coworker managed to forget she was boiling eggs and smoke out the building 3 times in 4 months.

              We finally bought her a gimmicky egg cooker that would turn itself off.

                  Yeah that’s generally the face folks make when I tell them that story. Highschool was a bitch to me since my wake period is generally from 8 PM to about 12 PM, so I was usually already winding down by the time school started.

                    Damn that’s rough having a circadian rhyme like that.

                    The closest I’d get to understanding that would be that I recently found out that I have sleep apnea severe enough to eventually kill me that was untreated most of my life. You wouldn’t expect it by looking at me because I look like a twink but there’s apparently a neurological version of the issue that skinny ppl can suffer from.
