/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I was basically kept alive by gracious restaurant owners and 7/11 staff as a poorshit grad student. I hope they're all doing okay.
>be poorshit, heavily depressed, borderline alcoholic nonfunctional grad student
>bubbly woman opens falafel place down the street, we quickly become friendly with each other
>restaurant owner eventually hires young woman from Iraq to work evenings
>Iraqi woman can barely speak English, is clearly deeply homesick and depressed like me
>come in near closing from time to time, we can barely communicate with each other but I sit quietly and keep her company while we both watch Arabic music videos on TV
Worst two years of my life by far, but I had a lot of meaningful experiences just by being a regular at local food joints.

>just sounds like you want an excuse not to try.
OP sounds like a proudly ignorant little bitch who refuses to attempt anything with the faintest learning curve and then gets upset and blames factors beyond his control when his inability to put effort into anything and lack of curiosity keeps him trapped in his bland, bleak, empty, miserable state of existence.
>waaaaaah the recipe asked for THREE different kinds of mushrooms! how can i possibly be expected to handle that sort of complexity???
>what's a russet potato? what's a yellow onion? fuck it, i give up :'''(
>learning basic cooking skills is hipster shit, look at this based wholesome xD church cookbook i got, all you have to do is dump canned shit into a casserole dish!
OP is the embodiment of mediocrity. He may as well just give up now, heat up some Tyson tendies, and blame his abject failure to become a successful, well-rounded human being on the jews.

Dinotendies has spent years destroying his home for /ck/'s entertainment and deserves a bit of recognition in return. Modest attention-seeking isn't a problem if someone's churning out unique content.
