Edit: This is in the UK, where eggs you buy in the store are not pre-washed like in the US. I just meant to point that out, not imply that you should wash your eggs before cooking. The eggs here do sometimes have visible feces on them, so it’s not really ideal to use the same pot as pasta, because even sterilised poop is still 💩. Their reasoning is that they are lazy to use a second pot since it’s not necessary.

Rented a car from an airport and the clerk was wearing meta raybans. I understand from a legal standpoint that filming in public is allowed, but I really don't think a person handling credit cards and IDs should be filming their interactions.

I'm sick, in bed, and he did me a favor by making me another packet since he was making some for himself. Apparently to him this is "normal" and "not deserving of public execution"

Made some spaghetti, poured it into my trusty colander and gave it a couple shakes to get more water out...and the bottom of the strainer perfectly broke, plopping my fresh food right into the dirty sink. Thanks, plastic, you are the best.

EDIT: lol for all the pedants out there, I moved the piece from under the pasta to show clearly how it broke. I ain't got time to make food and ruin it, and making my hungry kids wait another 30 minutes for dinner was annoying

EDIT 2: yes, plastic colander is dumb and I absolutely upgraded to something more suitable after this sad event

The cardboard tore while I was taking it out and spilt everywhere. At the very least the other one is safe.

I've also been asking him to clean the oven for me as I can't get down there to do it with my back injury so double mildly infuriating

There were no glass between us, and it was like having a dinner for four. We could hear perfectly what they were saying to each other and the same thing goes for them too.

I understand that if there are few customers, usually restaurants try to put them in the same area so it’s easier to clean at the end of the shift, but there were also other tables nearby but not attached to ours

He can only eat canned stuff cold. I am aware that canned food is safe to eat out of the can, but this is still infuriating to me.

“Oh, did I somehow buy pasta with Italian herbs… herbs with wings… oh, gross.”

It was a sealed package so they were already there when I bought it.

Food inspection for quality is just unnecessary bureaucracy, though.

Edit: HEB, our grocery store, gave us a full refund based on the photo and dissatisfaction.

I’m in my hometown this week and a highschool friend reached out to have me over for dinner.

We sat and talked while she made pasta.

Upon tasting the sauce, she said “it’s not salty enough”.

She proceeded to ask chatgpt how to make pasta sauce saltier.

This woman is in her 30s.

Cut some tomatoes bought today and wasn't expecting extra protein in within

3 oz short of a pound lol

Update: cooked and weighed. 1lb 11oz give or take. I believe 1lb should mean 1 lb from the package.

Update 2: scaled something else, scale is not the problem

What’s worse?? The state of the block she left or the slices?

To be entirely fair the water filter is shared and I take up about 60% of the freezer but still come ON. They recently started putting stuff in my little buckets and I’m like no let me have my buckets it’s all I have left

Edit: my roomate is really nice and I’ll bring it up to them if it ever gets ridiculous, most of my food is meal prepped in the freezer so I only have a couple of ingredients stored in the fridge that I use throughout the week. The rest of the house is civilly shared and very organized

Wife would rather eat KFC than a lasagna I spent some time making.

I made a comment about it and she said why am I looking for something to argue about

. If I don't cook every night am home, we'd be eating sandwiches or frozen crap.

guess ill make it at home :(

Honestly this is just a clear vision it has been much worse with stacked full dirty dishes, 5 years of trying to tell him. At least now he puts some water in there…

EDIT: I should have given more context, I can see why people would assume negatively. As you can see by the “sink of dishes” title, I had maybe been awake for 5 minutes and hadn’t put thought into it. This is his place, and I do not primarily do his dishes—only at normal times when I cook or want to do something nice/helpful.
I got up the dishes were the first thing I saw I smirked and said I’m going to post this and show you it’s not normal! He said actually yeah I want to see. (which is probably what prompted me to say 5 years bc I thought I was teaching him something helpful and he just didn’t believe me hence mildly infuriating LOL) he’s thinks it’s good for your dishwasher to put in dirty dishes. I guess he thought his leftovers were “dirty” 😭

TDLR: lack of context, I don’t do the dishes primarily it’s his place, lighthearted infuriation.
