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.

Please tell me that you were drunk out of your mind, lol.

Close I was running on 4 hours of sleep and had been awake for about 2 days.

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.

Fuck hope ya can correct your issues. Mine sucks but isn't generally life threatening.

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.
