how BTFO will these people be in an actually real happening? merely having to stay home for two weeks is already debilitating and causing them to sudoku left and right
Of all the people I know the guys can cook waaaay better than the women. Modern Western women are useless.
Nicholas Nguyen
This. I've met women who pride themselves on not being able to cook like it's an admirable aspect of their personality to show off to people. When they're alone they just eat processed packaged crap and complain about getting fatter and being sick all the time. The cognitive dissonance in women is astounding.

More proof that women follow the flow and change their minds easily

Cameron Williams
They're missing out on a great pleasure. Once you know how to cook it can be incredibly enjoyable provided you have the time to put some effort into it. Taking 2 hours to cook something you can be proud of is far more enjoyable than binge watching whatever trash is on netflix and eating a salt dense, high sugar microwave meal of dubious origin
William Robinson
2 weeks in lockdown: women, millenial or boomer, will turn into judges and will snitch on anybody who walks on the streets
Leo Bell
You can cook simple tasty dinners in 30 mins no problem.
Jonathan Flores
Not having learned it at any point in your adult life is absolutely a sign of laziness.
Aiden Anderson
>spend at a bare minimum 2 hours a day on social media >can't devote 30 minutes to a bowl of pasta with some meat and tomatoes in it If you cant cook and think this doesn't apply to you, remember Yas Forums is social media
Benjamin James
I get erect when I picture these kinds of people wandering the woods trying to figure out how to not die.
>stuff.co.nz really nigga? is she the one unable to cope with lockdown or are you for getting mad enough to make a thread about some gay blog?
Blake Anderson
For sure. You can make it as easy or as hard as you want. There is really know excuse for having no ability.
Or over-dependence. If somebody has other people to cook for them all the time, be it parents, partners, or takeout cooks, why would they ever learn how to do it themselves? I hope the lockdowns teach people to never be entirely dependent on others and to learn how to do at least basic things by themselves.
stuff opinion pieces are fucking gay but many people really don't know how to cook and are getting fucked now
Juan Bennett
Most men I know can cook better than modern wamen.
Cooper Morgan
I can't be the only one that sees men posting food they cooked on their social media pages, while women post things they eat.
Easton Walker
if you can not feed yourself one of the most basic aspects of life it is time for evolution to take its course and let you die. None of this creationism shit where you are cared for by some divine intervention.
Matthew Johnson
Modern women just hate going through any trouble even if it meant better outcome (like tastier food) just for themselves.
Lincoln Perez
my parents tricked me. taught me to cook starting from 8 years old like it was a fun game. Fry an egg here, make some noodles there. By the time I could cook something resembling a meal (11 years old) they started kicking back and have me cook dinner half the time.
Jaxson Ross
Women will shame other women who post things they have cooked. they think it promotes oppressive gender roles
Thomas Davis
And who do have to thank for all this rebellion Sean-James-Satan?
Dominic Butler
would be the first to starve to death or die of agony when the internet goes down
Gavin Nelson
Smart parents, and yeah fried egg was my first cooked thing too. That's horrific, crabs in a bucket user.
Gabriel Morales
>We're not necessarily achieving anything, but the constant sense of exhaustion from over-activity makes us feel as though we are
Lmao what the fuck kind of mentality is this?????? Pick up a fuckin cook book and watch a few vids. Cooking on your own is not hard and is extremely rewarding to do. What an airhead.
Jaxson Gutierrez
Ya'll niggers dont have cooking classes in school?
Cooper Lopez
Put meat in greased pan, turn on burner, cook meat on both sides until it is done. Then eat it.
Put vegetables in a pot of water, turn on burner, boil vegetables until they are done. Then eat it.
Not so hard, was it, user?
Kayden Clark
Just look at her... she won't starve to death for months.
Kevin Sullivan
My wife preps most things on Sundays. It takes a few hours. During the week I cook the protein when needed. Too busy to cook is too lazy to cook.
Nathan Mitchell
I'm a millennial and I can cook enough basic stuff that I never want for tasty food. I like cooking. Then again I am a man.
So tiresome when millenials blame this shit on our generation instead of themselves. I learned how to cook on my own just fine, and my boomer parents never taught me shit. Fucking stupid lazy bitch.
Same, I did a napoleanas torte for my sisters birthday. Did up some cornish game hen with a touch of saffron too. Best thing my gf ever made was from a bag in the freezer. I cook though, so I can keep her from getting fat, and I do no cleaning. No dice.
Jackson Williams
YOU LIVE IN AN AGE WHERE INFINITE INFORMATION IS JUST A FEW CLICKS AWAY AND YOU'RE COMPLAINING THAT YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS COOK???
GO ON YOUTUBE AND WATCH SOME FUCKING COOKING SHOWS YOU DUMB RETARD.
Andrew Perry
Ok so I opened up the article...
>I, like a lot of Millennial women, have always lived like I'm Anne Hathaway in The Devil Wears Prada. >We like to live our lives as a certain type of glamorously stressed young woman who's forever stepping out of Ubers clutching coffees and text-walking into meetings shaking out our blow-dry in a too-busy-to-deal-with-everyday-banality kinda way. basically she thought her life was a fucking movie. that's why she can't cook
>Someone who survives off coffee, nervous tension and Afterpay on her extensive collection of just-above-mid-range handbags. Someone who, if she does make time to eat, lives on Uber Eats, takeaway salads, and weekends brunching out. Someone who, if she does cook, gets those dinky meal kits that have transformed dinner-for-one from a sign of spinsterhood to that of successful career girl. This is "independence", apparently
>The aforementioned don't-you-know-I'm-far-too-busy-to-cook lifestyle isn't necessarily a sign of laziness. For many of us, it's actually a sign that we're winning in life. A lot of Millennial lifestyle is about pace. We're not necessarily achieving anything, but the constant sense of exhaustion from over-activity makes us feel as though we are. "winning at life" because you get too tired from working a regular 8 hours at the office and don't want to cook
>And so living off caffeine and sarcasm because you're too busy to cook is proof that you're performing well. "getting tired = good performance"
>And so all the reasons why I held so tight to my too-busy-to-chop-a-spud Millennial mentality seem to have disappeared faster than people's self control over toilet paper. Fuck anyone who feels self-important enough to speak on behalf of a whole generation.
Parker Sanchez
Part of the problem is people fundamentally misunderstand the purpose on food and eating. It isn't for pleasure, it is to fuel your body. I despise the attitude many people have that food has to taste great. Of course it is nice if it tastes great but that is a not a requirement. It's a childish view.
Some people look at a fresh spinach, apple, ginger smoothie and think "ew gross". It's not gross it's good for you and the more you eat things that are good for you, the more you will learn to like them precisely because they are nutritious and healthy.
When I cook for myself it is mainly easy stuff like baked chicken with mashed sweet potatio and vegetables. I often just fry up some ground beef with onion and serve it with a large side of sweet potato and veggie. Oatmeal and eggs for breakfst, homemade chicken salad with real homemade mayo for lunch.
It's pretty easy to cook in batches and eat real healthy food. It blows my mind that people will eat processed packaged food every single day for their meals.
It is also fun to make more involved dishes though. I made some really delicious cream of mushroom soup recently. Boiled vegetables and mushroom stems to make my own base stock too. It turned out really, really great. Cooking can be fun, but first and foremost it is what you do to properly nourish yourself.
Cooking is one of the easiest things one can do. You mau not know How to bake or do complex dishes, but frying, cooking Rice, vegetables....ALL easy
Carter Sanchez
To be fair if you make over 10k a month your time is properly better spent working them cooking. But you should also be intelligent enough to work out how to fucking cook.
Camden Diaz
excellent dissection
Nathan Bell
>Put meat in greased pan, turn on burner, cook meat on both sides until it is done. Then eat it. Imagine fucking that up.
20 bucks says the shit tier woman threw the pan away after crusting it with basically charcoal >2busy2scrub >bestlife also dont get a flame range if you cant pass grade 6 fcs
Jace Butler
hahahahahaha bitch how hard do you think cooking is hahahaha bitch just take some food and heat it up hahahaha
>"getting tired = good performance" This is a corporate American meme that wagies bought hook, line, and sinker. >Are you not exhausted, goy? Clearly you haven't been working hard enough. When you're too tired from slaving to function, then you can be proud. Lazy goy.
Yep, she's an idiot. Only low iq idiots use nonstick.
>Butt my eggs!
You can cook eggs without sticking in stainless steel. You can cook anything without sticking in cast iron or stainless. Go to a professional kitchen of a high end restaurant, they don't use nonstick because it is for casual retards like pic related who burn shit.
Hudson Ramirez
I'm 28. Go make some more instant ramen faggot. There is nothing more pathetic than a person who has to rely on others cooking for them and packaged processed ZOGchow for sustenance.
Brody Cook
My gf cant even get yeast dough right, its just sad.
Wyatt Perez
I think it's entirely possible those tortured bits of chicken are the first actual food Megyn Kelly has ever attempted to cook herself.
They make us immigrant burger flippers look like professional chefs.
Jack Lopez
How is this possible? Every recipe is on jewtube. You just have to have 75 iq and be able to copy a video. I have a literally retarded brother who was able to make a taser from a disposable camera. And he is literally deaf and mute and makes screeching noises all the time. A bit off topic, I'd say my mother is a saint for taking care of him but she has a real bitchy side.
>takeaway salad bitch please you cant crane that neck enough to lose the double chin >i can't cook probably the only thing keeping her off of a TLC special
When will people stop saying cognitive dissonance when they mean doublethink
Adam Foster
I'm a better cook than any girlfriend or wife I've had. Most of their moms couldn't cook, or they refused to teach their daughters because they wanted them to have careers.
And now if a woman wants to learn to cook, she learns from TV and thinks it has to be a big deal. So she spends all day making some fancy dinner and trashes the kitchen, but she can't whip up bacon and eggs for breakfast.
Christopher Campbell
is that gutter oil?
Alexander Cruz

Joseph Richardson

Luis Collins
have you tried eating shit?
Liam Gutierrez
This. I was actually saying this to my wife earlier, and she agreed. Both of us are great at cooking, and we hardly ever go out to eat. I'm 27 and she's 26. All this shit I keep seeing about 'young people aren't able to cook because excuses!' is pure, unadulterated fucking S-tier cringe and I don't even pity these fools. I simply hope they have a small flash of regret before they perish face down in a bowl of ramen. Fucking faggots.
>make a taser from a disposable camera I remember doing that as a kid, you just expose the flash button, charge it up and touch someone with it. Hadn't thought about that in a long time. It's incredible, isn't it?
Landon Clark
I had a bitch saying she can't even cook rice. You start questioning if these women aren't actually retarded.
Justin Collins
they TRULY have forgotten how to be women, haven't they? >so busy trying to one-up men
William Barnes
Very true. I see nonstick as a sign of incompetence. Also it can make you sick if you forget to only use plastic stuff on it, as the coating is very brittle and highly toxic. Fucking retards, I swear. As if you'd even upload that picture! Do they think it's funny to be a fucking adult who can't feed themselves? It's just embarrassing.
Austin Gomez
How is this even possible? Is she joking?
Logan Thomas
most of these women who can't cook are unmarried careerist types
Carter Watson
Good on the little buddies, puts a smile on my face.
David Gray
>imagine not having a Med gf
Isaac Sullivan
>hehehe, I'm such a retard I can't even feed myself >hehehe I followed the instructions, I swear! Fuuuuuuuuuuck off, this bitch needs to stick to sucking cock.
spot on, ever heard of gluttony people, how about hedonism
Owen Wilson
How hard is it to "cook"? Literally type in whatever food you are making and you get instructions.
Colton Wilson
This is deffo true, but even still I don't think having a career is an excuse to not know how to feed yourself. I hate the argument of >huurrr I don't have time Like fuck you don't. If you don't have time to fucking eat then what time do you have? It's totally possible and easy to make a decent, simple meal in 30 mins. I hate these idiots, user. This thread has made me irrationally angry.
Blake Powell
>too busy to cook
You can multi-task, plenty of delicious meal like slow cooked chicken, you just listen to the radio while you marinate, leave it at quarter heat while you finish the daily paper, and DONE!
They’re too distracted by instagram or facebook. Meanwhile Med women can do both and the food is breddy gud tbqh.
Justin Flores
>I was trying to teach my gf to cook and it would always end up like this. She'd get some elaborate lavish recipe off the internet and it would be like $50 for the ingredients for stew, because she'd have to use red and white wine and some other expensive shit. I knew if I criticized her that'd be the end of it. So I'd just keep my mouth shut and appreciate that she was getting better at cooking. I think she went home to brag to her dad about the stew and he about had a heart attack laughing and told her stew is from shit you have on hand you don't go spend sixty bucks to make one
Landon White
>I had a bitch saying she can't even cook rice.
At all, or just without an electric rice cooker?
>Dear God, how do you fuck this shit up.
Too busy browsing Facebook to check to notice the burning smell.
Ryan Powell
Modern leftists are exactly like the Boomers they despise. Just poorer.
Bentley Ramirez
I have no idea desu friend, I got this from here. I've tried making them myself in the past but I can never seem to get it right. My only guess would be that footage where not much happens is easier to compress because of the different way visual data is stored in frame types. This webm is mostly a still shot, so that might have something to do with it. Not 'still', but it'd be easy to interpolate compared to some confetti, for instance.
How retarded are you to be unable to cook? A meal is just some kind of grain, meat and vegetables. This is what I used to "cook" for myself when I was a student:
Carbs: >rice made in rice cooker >pasta (takes bread rolls with butter
Vegetables: >broccoli (boiled in water with salt) >raw cucumber >raw baby carrots >raw bell peppers
Meats: >salmon brushed with oil and baked in a toaster oven >fried eggs / scrambled eggs >steak
Pretty much everything there takes less than 10 minutes of actual cooking.
