is not always going to work.

How often does one have to try?

I used to try and gauge how good a recipe I found online is by reading through the comments that people leave below. However, about 10 years ago or so, I had to stop because it seemed like nearly every single one had multiple comments like this, though not quite as extreme. I think some people are like me, they must enjoy pretending to be faceboomers and leaving ridiculous comments on random sites. I still remember one that I read a while ago that gave me a giant chuckle. But most of them just give me heart burn. Then again so does eggs.

I love recipe comments like these. It is really just insight into how absolutely ludicrous and entitled people are. Why can't your recipe simply bend reality to my will, and modify itself into what I desire to give me the outcome of my dreams.

We didn't have any potatoes on hand for the potato salad so we used diced up and used our pet clown fish instead. It tasted funny.
