You poor thing, why couldn't she have just died of cancer or something when you were a kid.

are you me

Luxury issues. Some kids only get junk food or are stuffed till they get fat.
Be glad someone was there cooking for you even if it was bland.

So does she actually have diagnosed BPD or is that your coping mechanism for being ungrateful?

>>12858390
Is her name Marie?

>>12858390
borderline personality or bipolar? I don't know psych acronyms.

Maybe your best thing is to think about becoming independent and quite successful in life. You'll probably be taking care of your Mom in her later years, in some financial and emotional sense. You want to be wealthy enough to buy her a live in caregiver so it doesn't all completely fall on your shoulders.

Also, seek your own mental health care. Codependency and other problems genetically and/or a product of living with someone crazy. Because why? Who the hell cares that you think your mother thinks she cooks better than you think. If she's white trash, you're likely critiquing crap mid tier and low tier chain food that isn't better than home.

>>12858390

my mom never salt anything and when she watched me do so she threw a fit how I'll die from heart attack

>>12859642
>No fried bolonege sandwiches for lunch
So rich yet so unfulfilled

>>12859778
because zoomers dont understand most of the time what its like to lose them

>>12859778
It's not criticism, it's being a brat that never got disciplined. Most normal households have embarassing things about parents. The "grill master" dad who burns everything to a crisp, or the casserole mom who combines macaroni and cheese with tough cuts of beef for no reason. But the fact is they tried. They didnt have the internet or food network and by the time they were parents their own parents had lived through shit times in terms of food to know anything but poverty recipes, so they got out the betty Crocker cookbook and tried. Maybe they failed, but atleast they fed your dumbass long enough for you to bitch about it on 4chan.

The reason boomers can't cook is they grew up eating canned veggies with miracle whip and spam, maybe shrimps suspended in aspic if they're feeling fancy

>>12859811
boomer detected

>>12858399
learn how to cook

>>12859811
Gonna be honest dude, they didn't really try. You can make this argument all you want, but they are forty years old. Just pay attention to the fucking meat cooking is not hard. It's not. It's seriously fucking not. If you are burning your fucking food 24/7 you are not putting in the time, the effort, the attention needed to TRY to cook the food. My dad used to not really try much in his cooking, we got him a smoker, and a few other little tools and the dude lit up. I haven't seen that man so excited to experiment with food in ages. It improved all aspects of the cooking he does, why? Because he's actually fucking trying now.
Mediocrity is not acceptable. If you're trying, you will improve, if you are not trying, you stagnate.

As a counter point, my mother and grandmother defer to me in most areas of cooking. There's a few things that my grandmother is a fucking master at - like pierogi - but other than that I'm considered to be the best cook in the family.

My mother is good, but she doesn't like cooking. I assume that comes from having to cook for a whole family for years and years and years. I bed I'd be tired of it too if it was such a big chore for such a long time.

>>12859811
>Most normal households have embarassing things about parents

only because amerishart boomers are so terrifically pallid

>>12859846
WAHHH MOMMY'S TENDIES ARE OVERCOOKED! MOMMY SUCKS!

My mother literally can't cook any variation of eggs correctly despite being a decent cook
I don't get it, she can cook other stuff but she cannot cook eggs
>Scrambled are cooked on too high heat, they leak water
>Hard Boiled are always grey
>Soft are always overcooked
>Fried eggs are always in oil because "thats how you cook them, butter is wrong and not traditional"
>Poached are rubbery
>Omlettes are burnt and raw on the inside
Whats with boomers and
>MUH SALMONELLA MUH HIGH HEAT KILL GERMS

>>12859858
>they are forty years old
even the youngest boomers are 55. the oldest are 73

>>12859835
this is also true. boomers were the first generation to grow up with "scientifically" produced food. think wonder bread and tang. for some reason, my parents made me eat canned peas instead of just buying the frozen peas that are 1000% better

>>12859867
>Whats with boomers and
>>MUH SALMONELLA MUH HIGH HEAT KILL GERMS
Just a guess but.... trash education?

Only in america do I see people keep the weirdest things in the fridge:
>eggs
>drugs, like pills
>bandages
>canned food
>fucking cooking oil, I shit you not, saw it once
And my favourite one of all time was when I found... fucking RICE in the fridge.

>>12859865
pic related, it's you

>>12859868
Time passes eternally and I am no closer to my goals. I wish to exit this unrelenting hell.

>>12859811
It's funny how /ck/ is the biggest food snob until it comes to your parents, then in that case you should just shut up and eat whatever sludge they put in front of you because of faaaaaaaaaamily.
>>12859808
I know what it's like to lose my mom. Still doesn't negate the fact that her cooking was utter garbage and simply wouldn't listen any time I gave her constructive pointers about how to cook better. Hell, I even cooked with her and cooked for her a good amount of the time. There's a lot of things I remember and love her for, and food might be your thing but it's not mine.

>>12859874
wait are you not supposed to keep eggs in the frisge

>>12859898
eggs are fine in the fridge

>>12858399
this

>>12859898
American egges are usually washed and "sanitized" which means you take of the natural protective layers that eggs have by default. For that reason american eggs usually should be refrigerated.

In most countries in europe washing and especially disinfecting eggs is illegal.

>>12859896
>It's funny how /ck/ is the biggest food snob until it comes to your parents, then in that case you should just shut up and eat whatever sludge they put in front of you because of faaaaaaaaaamily.

Not him but my dad was and still is a horrible cook. I have him to thank for sparking my interest in cooking good food since no one else in the household could do it. Grow up, baby.

>>12859926
>not just eating your dad's cooking
grow up

>>12859898
Main reason is salmonella. But it's mostly a probability game, most of the time eggs are just fine outside, but you lower the already low probability of getting salmonella by a few percent.

That is assuming you use them raw or partially raw. If you intend to cook them through salmonella isn't your problem. Anything above 160F (70C) give you 100% salmonella free eggs.

>>12859934
I did, retard. What kind of little bitch throws a tantrum about it on an anonymous piss bottle forum? lmfao kill yourself you spoiled little shit.

>>12859938
Obviously you didn't, because you're still posting on 4chan like an entitled toddler instead of going out and earning money for your family

>>12859946
lmfao what are you even talking about you projecting retard? It's labor day weekend when people like me can take a break, shitpost, and laugh at neets like you for throwing a tantrum about mommy's burnt tendies.

>>12859935
>>12859905
>>12859898
It has been proven that one thing that actually does increase the probability of salmonella on your eggs is taking them in and out of the fridge(or keeping them on the door), which produces a layer of moisture on the eggs themselves(condensation) which promotes bacterial growth, as opposed to keeping them in a dry cool place in a cupboard or something.

>>12859874
okay after eggs you started making shit up. nobody stores any of that shit in the fridge besides eggs you obsessed cuck.

>>12859905
>In most countries in europe washing and especially disinfecting eggs is illegal.
OI M8 YOU GOT A LOICENSE TO RINSE THAT EGG IN THE SINK?

>>12858390
>Eat at a restaurant with mommy every week

Still happy I get to spend time with mommy though

>>12859652
>>12859804
Enjoy your gross fatty pork on sugar bread

>>12859935
If eggs are cooked over easy is that a salmonella risk?

>>12858390
Kinda makes me feel bad because my mom bipolar too and I just stone faced my way through all her meals.

If I give a complement to someone they practically have an orgasm because I only do it annually.

>>12858390
I dont know how that feels, my mother is an actual genius cook.

>>12859874
>let me tell you about your country and the people in it
our eggs are washed, if you don't keep them in the fridge the spoil quickly

>>12860265
This is correct. But many americans do put some really dumb shit in the fridge. I had a roommate who stored dry pasta in the freezer.

>>12858390
>>12858430
>>12859638
Am I you guys?

>>12859778
Because it reminds them of how they failed their own kids.

>>12859811
You don't have to respect your parents for jack shit, least of all for pushing the responsibility for sating their personality disorders onto their own kids.

I put my fridge in a larger fridge so when I open it the food doesn’t get all warmed up.

>>12858390
Yeah, we're literally the same except my mom's cooking was ok, but she was an abusive alcoholic haha

>>12860482
What fucking personality disorder? I dont know if 4channel has an age restriction anymore or not but you should still get the fuck out if you're under 18. Whining about parents and their weirdo ticks is the most cringe shit of all time. Either get out of your fucking parents' house or finish high school and deal with it. Or go confront your mom about it instead of talk shit behind her back like a pussy. Whatever you do, fuck off of here unless you actually want to talk about cooking instead of your shitty problems.

>b-but they tried!

And it's shit. They need to be told that and accept that. Sounds like you're the one who needs to grow up, snowflake.

Had this at some point. The cure is to just stop caring.
Every time they try to argue, or claim that "their parents always did it", you just tell them it's not the cold war anymore and they don't have to make do with rations.
You don't just say it's bad, you say why it's bad. Then maybe once every few months or so (basically half as often as I see them) you put in minimal effort to make something 10x better than what they make, solely because you're not doing retarded shit like cooking without any lubricant or boiling steak.

>>12859898
its also prohibited to bleach and slean eggs in my country, we can have an egg sit on the counter for near a month and its still good to eat, you try that with a bleach white american egg and you get sick and it smells like death,
you can put our eggs in the fridge too but it doesnt do any good to waste space.
>>12859905
same here, i live in an asian country, its an egg heaven here they have like 1000 way to do eggs
another note
eggs burried in sand/ash/powder can last 8 months and be as good as the day itwas layed.
americans are so limited in experiance they will not learn this untill adult life
also BUTTER doenst need to be refrigerated also.

>>12858390
Sucks for you, my mom is pretty good cook, it's rare she cooks something which isn't good. She's taught me some things too.
It's important to be at least a decent cook as a parent, and it's generally important to be at least a decent cook as an adult person.

Sorry to hear about her BPD, that must have been difficult as a kid, and probably difficult still.

>>12858399
She took care of him for sure, and he should be grateful for that, but if his mom was a bad cook, what can he say? Not to her face, obviously.

>>12859778
Some boomers are really shitty parents and they hate being reminded about it, further their parents were really shitty and they don't want to face the notion that they were brought up in a fucked up way.
>"Well MY parents would beat me with a cane and *I* grew up fine!"
Stuff like that. It'd be funny if it wasn't so fucking tragic.

>t.

>>12859926
My mom was a good cook, but damn my dad's cooking could sometimes be REALLY terrible.

>>12859934
I mean I'd fucking challenge you to.

>>12859898
>>12859905
>>12860755
I live in a Nordic country and people keep any dairy in the fridge, including butter, and eggs as well.

>>12858390
>BPD
Ah, the mental illness that most psychiatrists wont even attempt to treat because their minds are so so irrecoverably warped that they unintentionally break the minds of those around them.

>>12860033
Heh. I mean eggs that will be sold to the public, you can do whatever you want with your own eggs.

>>12860253
Runny yolk cannot give you salmonella unless it was punctured by a shell piece that contained the bacteria of salmonella. If the yolk is whole and runny and the whites are fully cooked then you're totally fine, since it's only the whites that could have touched the shell which could contain salmonella.

>>12860755
Oh yeah, that's another one, butter in the fridge. I get it if you are doing pastries with it or something, that makes sense, but if you just want to butter a toast or something just keep it in room temp.

>>12860791
>You're making shit up.
They might, but I've seen some weird shit in american fridges too. Like honey for example. Makes no sense.

>>12859874
>fucking cooking oil, I shit you not, saw it once
I really should start doing this though, since I buy large containers and use it sparingly. I've never had olive oil turn on me, but this one's pushing 20 months old and I'm sure its supposed to bitter by then.

>>12858390

feels good man. We used to eat casserole and hot dogs and Mac and cheese when I was a kid. 20 years later mom is a great cook

>>12859905
Its also because the hens are vaccinated against salmonella which also reduces the risk.

>>12861521
weird flex but ok

>>12858390
Only thing my Mom used to suck cooking where pizzas until one day for her birthday, she and a cousin of mine made some, at the end of the party every body had eaten my cousin pizza but almost nobody touched my mom's, she asked me what what's the deal with that and drop her the hard truth, her pizzas where dry and to thick, she stopped using baking powder and started using yeast.

>>12858399
hard to grow up when you had a bpd parent that never raised you, and one that never noticed.

imagine having a mom who doesn't really love you she just does enough so she doesn't get arrested, and lies to everyone she knows about how much she does do. Essentially abusing the trust everyone has for adults over kids to make it look like the kid is ungrateful while at the same time the kid is internalizing everything bad the mom says to them making them think it IS actually their fault that their parent is a lazy piece of shit that doesn't love them.

>Make easter lunch for family, aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousin
>One of the dishes is lamb
>Everyone serves themselves
>A few seconds after I sit down, my dad comes over

>>12862704
I hope you told him thats why you made it

>>12862806
I should. I came back to parents' house the other day and made them enchiladas for a sit down dinner since we haven't eaten together in a while. He took his plate to the family room so he could look up "funny cat videos" on his tv while he ate. Meanwhile, anything he cooks is manna from heaven

>>12861202
I'm so glad for you anon. Your dad worked hard to bring prosperity, and then your mom took the leap and grew as a person, and it brought joy and better health to the family.

>>12862518
You may not think about it that way, but food is one of the fundamental cornerstones of our existence, it's necessary for us to function, and it's also capable of bringing great pleasure and satisfaction to those who have the fortune to have decent and good food, or for those finding enjoyment in even just the simple things.

Growing up eating mostly simple fast food and readymade stuff, it's not awful, but a lot of it is samey and it may get boring after a while, and you can tell from your figure and maybe even bowel movements how good the stuff is for you.
Then one day you come home and not only is there a serious home cooked meal on the table, that your mom worked hard on, she's never made something like this before. It looks amazing, it's inviting you, you taste it and it's delicious, you soon come to the immediate understanding that this is what food will be from now on.
It might be hard to visualize, but it can be a near euphoric experience, and I mean this in the genuine emotional sense, not the meme definition.

>>12858399

>>12859811
Nope fuck off. I learned basic breakfast skills without looking it up online or anything. Ate a really good $6 breakfast sandwich in my city's most popular brunch place and can make 6 at a time for myself and roomies any morning of the week for under a dollar each. Proof that no one ever tried and just put up with bland, poorly cooked slop

This. Making and sharing food together is one of the most basic and effective ways to bring people together. This is something that comes from our ancestors from thousands or even hundreds of thousands years back that would hunt together, cook together, and eat together, strengthening the bonds of their tribe.

One of the best ways to make new friends is to invite them to a party and cook for them.

>>12858390
i always thought food was just shit unless it was made in a restaurant because of some magic bullshit growing up and then when i moved out on my own and learned to cook i found out that things can actually taste good if you dont overcook the ever living fuck out of them

honestly it was life changing and i never want to eat my mothers cooking again and insist i cook whenever i see her

>relatives keep asking me to fix computer issues constantly
>whenever I need help with something, they all stay extremely quiet

My policy is i'll give a freebie if it's not too much work, anything more that that and I expect to at least get paid.
Exceptions are just my mom and my dad and any relatives that actually talk to me outside of asking me to fix their shit.

I only have so many free hours of the day outside of work, not spending it fixing your shit without compensation.

>>12863935

I now what you mean but I agree with >>12863949. I always help family for free but for friends and friends of friends or friends of family I expect something in return. I won't name any price, but you should bring me at least a nice beer or something. If I get nothing I'm not doing any-fucking-thing for you ever. Even the simplest compensation like some nice cheese or some cookies they made or whatever would be fine.

>>12863937
Ask for money for "parts". Swap them out for their still functioning ones. Help yourself to the "broken" ones. Build yourself entire new machines over time.

It doesn't have to be monetary like if you make/buy me some good food or if it's a favor for a favor then I'm happy to fix your shit, I just hate how a lot of more distant relatives will only approach me if they need something. If it's something small and they never really bothered me, I don't mind but I'm not driving all the way to your house which is like 2 hours to a relative's place to spend a few hours trying to fix your sound system for your TV, you know?

Genuine question. Are you ignoring the possibility that some people were just born into a family with shitty parents? Like actually sincerely bad people? You don't HAVE to love your family if they are actual pieces of shit and actively try to ruin you or hold you back or bring you down. Fortunately this seems to be a minority now for most people but it is nowhere near completely gone or impossible. Why don't YOU grow up and realize not everyone was born into a fortunate situation with loving parents. Life isn't a fucking pixar movie.

Anyone who has ever had children is a monster.

Hard to believe an anon with a mom who has cooked for him all his life and continues to do so suffers from shit parents, even if she’s a bad cook.

serious note : growing up, my drug addict of a mother couldn't cook for shit. I mean mustard and biscuits level shit. normally with a side of plain parboiled white rice with butter. So to cope, I basically drowned everything I ate in hot sauce and red pepper flakes. It was the only thing that gave food a sensation. Later even resturant food was so damned plain. Only a short few days ago did I realise, my taste buds aren't bad, yet I required an extreme to feel normal. So only last night I bit right into a fresh jalapeno, and ate the whole thing. I sat down and cried because although there was a burn, the burn didn't matter. All I felt was crushing saddness.
After reading about it, I found the truth - I've depressed since childhood due to my abusive mother, and have felt numb to the world for so long, than extreme pain is a break from foggy walking death.

You mean just being a bitch?
Also, do you not keep salt and pepper in your fucking house? You're supposed to season after the shit's cooked, anyways.

>>12858390
I lived with a BPD person myself

best option in those cases is to instead of accepting what she cooks, help her cook instead

ask her to teach you, while you study alot of cooking recipes

eventually ask to start cooking for her

she just buys stuff for you to cook with

she loves you more, you get cheesy "I made these cause you taught me" lines

and if you're lucky, you fuck her at the end of the day

>>12858390

>still don't give a shit about people criticizing their parents
Some deserve it. If you tell someone that they have to care about their parents enough like with the bible then eventually they will think that it's a life or death matter.
In reality your parents are just people who decided to have kids.
Some are going to love their kids and some just see them as an accessory to their life.

>>12864138
I literally said it was his parents fault you fucking mong. How is that me saying "he should revere her"? His parents deserve 0 respect.

>>12858570
Wtf

>>12859778

They weren't allowed to criticize their parents, they would just get the belt. Meanwhile there was a lot about their parents to criticize, especially in their eyes. Mainly being unemotional workaholic robots that were secretly filled with sexual and/or violent fantasies that they often ended up acting out. Men of their parents generation were pressure cookers of rapey violence and the women were willingly unthinking histrionic cloud-minders barely covering up the fact they're a raging whore.

On the other hand boomers need to fucking understand that holding onto 80% of all wealth while berating us into the center of the earth for not having a good job was a shitty fucking thing to do and they'll never really live it down because it was such an absolute banana peel shitpost.

>>12863405
>dad and I do not get along, absolutely hate eachother
How do dads accomplish this? You were just a damn child. How in the world is your dad such a failure of a person that you develop
a mutual hatred of eachother when you're at such a young age? Was he a fucking kid just like you?

>>12858390

Not them, but it was pretty fucking easy. I can remember when I was in the 2nd or 3rd grade, the school called my mom because in a daily journal the teacher made the class do for some writing skills development or whatever, I wrote down that I wished my dad was eaten by a wolf and died.
>Was he a fucking kid just like you?
No, but his behavior is exactly like one. I wasn't even his first kid either, so can't even use inexperience as an excuse.
i've hated him for decades, and it feels really unhealthy to think like this, but its been so ingrained into me i can't see myself changing, ever

>>12866179
Its a cyclical thing. The more I learn about his family the more it makes sense. His father was an illiterate drunk slav (inb4 >as if there are other kinds of slav) who somehow managed to sire and pay for 7 children, and who was worse than he was in terms of anger and self-control. Not saying this lets him of the hook, but at least I know why he is the way he is. The "thing he couldn't take back" finally got to him, and he's really trying his damndest to become a better person now. A few decades late, but at least it's something.

I think the biggest problem is that we are way, way, too much like one-another, and that's a really bad thing when you're like us. Ironically, it's the thing that brought us closer together when we finally realized how similar we were.

>>12859874
I keep pills in the fridge because I have a 3 month prescription and have no central a/c so if it's in my hot humid room it noticeably loses potency.

>>12866268
You've hated him for decades, huh? My older brother seems to have forgiven him, and has reestablished contact after years, even though I was hit harder by his abuse, and he also was the first to ghost my dad in the first place. At least he has his feelings in the right order. I still text message my dad like a dog with stockholm syndrome even though I'm permanently fucked up by things he did and didn't do to me and my brother growing up. My brother came downstairs one day recently, and told me, "I'm just sick of hating, it just gets exhausting after some time" he asked me how I felt and I told him that I don't have the wisdom he had to give up on the hate. I wondered afterwards how he was able to change his perspective, how he was able to give up on the hate. I clearly remember telling myself when I was younger that I would never forget the things he did to me, and the older, stronger me would make him pay. I still vividly remember all the times he lashed out and hit me, or his intensely controlling side, the kind that puts even the main villain in a shonen to shame. It truly was a horrible time. I still remain in contact with him, and I've never told him the furious expanse of emotions that have broiled and fermented for my entire life; I don't even think I'll be able to word it properly in my confession, let alone the impossible chance that he will feel even feel a shred of guilt and atonement.So here I sit, in a lifelong interstice between wanting to hate and destroy my father, and being too cowardly to do so. I curse my bones.

You're on a fucking food and cooking board. People here know how to cook, do it all the time, and know it's not that fucking hard. If you burn a burger to a crisp 10 times in a row, and never learn from your mistakes, then I don't give a shit who you are or how much you're providing for me, you're being a fucking moron.
My parents loved cooking and put real effort into the food. Once in a while something went not quite right. That was totally fine! But being purposely terrible and convincing yourself that you are good is just fucking ridiculous.

>>12866317
At this point, its a waiting game for me. I've already made it clear multiple times about how I feel about him to his face and to my mom years ago, but no significant changes have ever come out of it, so I'm passing the time acting neutral until one of us dies. If I know I'll never have to interact with him again, maybe the hate will go away. However, the fact that I see red whenever I even think about him makes me doubt that.
>I don't have the wisdom he had to give up on the hate
It's not wisdom. When you've lived with it for so long, it becomes a part of you. Yes, its mentally exhausting, but in a twisted way the hatred gives me the energy to keep going.

>>12866317
Either your father changed or your brother changed. My father was bad when I was growing up but he's actually a decent guy now. I'm permanently stunted by things he did as well, but again, at least in my case, I try not to judge people by what they did in bad situations themselves

>>12871422

>>12871992
Probably because his "mom" was named Charles.

It's an american white people thing. That's how your supposed to respect your family by eating their shitty food because god knows thats the only way they show love to their family.
They have shitty family values of kicking out their kids at 18 and then in the future the little fucks dont take care of their aging parents and they die in a nursing home while they squabble over inheritance.

Worked in a nursing home during high school in a highly asian and some indian town but it was all filled with Great Aunt Beths and Granny Margarets that had many kids who were very well off but would never visit/call even on some holidays. And when they did come they just usually asked how long she has left. Meanwhile grandfathers/mothers lived in asian and indian family households.

So yeah tell Rand to add some fucking seasoning to his food if he wants to ever see his grandkids

>>12860222

>>12872083
Differen't guy, Scandinavia, but my dad could occasionally be a real shitty cook. He's decent, even good at a few dishes, but when it was bad, it was BAD.
One I recall in particular was burnt fish sticks with microwaved potatoes. Not previously cooked potatoes reheated, he just fucking popped them raw in the microwave.
>What's the matter anon, why aren't you eating? Are you anorexic?!
The man doesn't quite understand people, and rarely accepts the idea that he's wrong and someone else is right.

Mom's a great cook though, and I'm still learning a lot from her.

>Mom passed away suddenly last year
>I never learned any of her personal recipes for stuff she used to make

I’ve tried making the stuff she used to make from memories of watching her do it but nothing tastes the same

>>12872251
That's sad. See if you can find some recipes from around when she would cook for you, chances are she got at least some of them from magazines or books from around that time.

>>12859865
I'm surprised that no one died after eating your "food".

>>12872064
>They have shitty family values of kicking out their kids at 18

Honestly, I can't tell if this is a myth or not. I heard it happen but I know a lot of white families in my area and that's generally the last thing they'd want to do to their kids. If they're a complete bum I guess they'd kick them but usually the kids are in school or working a job.

>>12872108
>>12872458
It varies where I go, some places they do, some they don't, some they seem to put them adjacent to the dairy section, where there's all this refridgeration, so it's kinda slightly cooler by the egg shelf but not by much.

Something my mom taught me is that eggs generally tend to last a lot longer than the expiration date stamped on the carton.

>>12871393

>>12858390
She's just trying to make conversation

>>12858390
I hope she kicks you out you ungrateful piece of shit

So what I'm getting from all of this is that you are supposed to insult and berate literal children for not getting a job and not doing anything right and being a selfish little snowflakes in general and at best beat them with a stick so that they don't grow up shitty.
BUT
You are not allowed to criticize your boomer "grill master" dad for shitty cooking who is a grown ass old man, because that is ungrateful and his feelings might get hurt and besides he is providing those burnt burgers to you with his love.

Beating kids to the ground is okay, but things get very uncomfortable and scary when you need to tell your parents that they suck at life.
Things like this sound like a result of being scared of violence.

>was he a fucking kid just like you?
As I'm closing in to 30 I have realized that the biggest disservice my parents ever did to me was to have me at their early 20s when they barely had any life skills themselves. They only worked, left me for my own devices, decided to give me a "free" uprbringing (because they were unable to teach me anything) and those fuckers are probably going to be alive untill I'm an old man myself. Literally, I'll be in my 60s and there will still be some asshole complaining and treating me like a little kid.

I feel sorry for you man. My folks were genuinely good cooks. I think my dad was better at cooking though. He had that authentic spanish cuisine down to a science. And I'm not talking mexican crap where it's just meat and beans and cheese. He knew recipes for some of the most obscure spanish fruits and vegetables, and even cooked during his tenure as a driver for shipping companies. I'm extremely grateful that they taught me so much.

>>12870067
>implying people with BPD can love
oh no no no

>>12866179
Not him but my dad was the 14th child born in his family and his own dad died when he was 15. His own upbringing was at once spoiled and extremely shitty, and he was manipulated by his older brothers into being a sort of indentured servant (live rent free on their property in exchange for working for them).

As an adult he's just a shitty, self-centered, short-tempered dumb piece of crap to anyone that isn't his direct superior (he now works at a hardware store). He's still his brother's bitch boy when they're around tho.

My grandma (82) once said to me that she can tell that my father still has a lot of growing up to do. He is 53, but feels more like a big brother to me than anything else. He is the one throwing temper tantrums now every once in a while after I grew out of it and he completely shuts down when he recieves any sort of critique. My mom is also blind to this and once started crying when I said "well how do you explain that whenever someone in this family has a fight with someone it's either with my dad or my big brother". We are a family of six and the 3 younges, mom and other relatives get along just fine. Yet, whenever someone has a fight with it's always with my dad or my big brother.
