It is that retards are annoying, and I count myself as one. I don't require others to conform to my requests, or to even let me into their circles.

But since there is so much info on cooking out there, it's kinda difficult to parse into a cohesive series of steps, through which on can gradually improve. I have slowly started un-manchilding the way I cook, but I understand why many guys are averse to doing anything that is more complicated than heating frozen pizza. The all or nothing mentality in any hobby or circle of interest is bound to make you shy away from even taking the first step.

Just as an example, for me it took a ridiculously long time to even understand how to regulate the heating of a pan. All "How to cook le ultimate steak for beginner videos" always just say how it's medium heat for a few minutes. What the fuck is medium heat for my contect. I have an electric coil oven at home, my folks have an induction oven top, and they behave quite differently at each regulated level.
