Only when it comes to participating in the first place, not for the result in the competition.

Well, it was a biathlon … not a moral contest.

- Comment on What's going on with Olympic skiers and penises? 3 days ago:
The ski-jumping suits are heavily regulated and have to be very tight, because even a small bit of extra fabric will provide extra lift and will increase the distance of a jump.
One ski-jumper was accuses of cheating on his penis-messurement (apparently they really do that) so he could get some extra fabric added to his suit.
- Comment on I got banned from Fuck AI community, anything I can do? 3 days ago:
It was meant to be provoking to motivate people to try to argue.
Yeah, you choose the wrong place for that. It should be quite opposite from the name of that community that it’s for ranting and memeing about AI apologism has no place there.
Ban is a bit of over kill though, maybe nicely ask the mods.

I would say I do enjoy food, but I probably don’t have the broadest palate there is. I very much prefer cooked food over frozen or other read-to-eat stuff … hence the regular ordering of food.
It is only when I’m actually cooking that I’ll eat the same food for several days. Usually I just cook something easy like a bunch of pasta and my dad’s custom sauce. Takes like 40 minutes and I’ll have food for 3 days, that kind of justifies it. But more fancy meals only very rarely make it over my effort/taste ratio.

Well, you should practice the basic skill of reading, because I didn’t. I can cook and I never said not being able to cook is in any way desirable, just that I don’t enjoy it and thus try to avoid.
If you’re trying to be clever edge lord, at least try to get a basic understanding of what the other person is saying. And maybe don’t try to make a poop joke 3 times in a row.

Yeah, the it’s not getting funnier on your 3rd try. But I appreciate the attempt.

Yeah, tell that to the people that keep telling me how cool of a stress relief cooking is after I already said I don’t enjoy it. Seems they need the awareness more than I do.

I have no work addiction. It’s just that I don’t hate my work professional work. So I’d rather work my job than work in the kitchen. I don’t think that’s that strange.

I’m sure it is if you enjoy it in the first place.

My point was about knowing what you’re putting into your body, knowing how it was sourced and prepped. Dining out is at least three layers of abstraction from that knowledge.
I see what you mean. I’m in Europe where restaurants and food are generally better regulated. Switzerland specifically has very strict laws for labelling the origin of meat, for example. A lot of the non-chain restaurant will source their ingredients locally. I don’t think the quality is much different than buying the expensive ingredients from the super market.
I guess the best option (health-wise) is only buying fresh produce from the farmers market and such, but that requires a whole other level of effort in the shopping department (and I don’t enjoy shopping either).

I sincerely asked, and I assume you are similarly sincere in asking.
Right, but I don’t really know how to explain why you don’t like something. It doesn’t doesn’t appeal to me. It’s not fun. I don’t care about playing with knives (I hated woodworking in school, btw).
understanding the underlying physics and chemistry at every step
Yeah, that aspect is somewhat interesting, I would definitely consider reading a book about it. Trying to learn by own practical experience in this day and age seems like a bit late to the party, though.
In the end, cooking is just an ends to a means of eating.
Also, garbage in, garbage out on every level. This is stuff you’re putting in your body.
So tired of hearing this dumb fuck argument. Ordering food =/= fastfood. The amount of people that seem to think their little bit of homecooking can compete with professional chef’s is laughable.

A bit of a broad question. But I can assure that almost any activity makes me happier than cooking. It’s one of my least favourite chores.
- Comment on "Between raising two young boys and putting in long hours at a marketing job, Kevin Caldwell can almost never find the time to make dinner. So he and his husband spend about $700 a week to order in" 1 week ago:
That’s fair enough. I have better things to spend my time on than cooking. To each their own.
- Comment on "Between raising two young boys and putting in long hours at a marketing job, Kevin Caldwell can almost never find the time to make dinner. So he and his husband spend about $700 a week to order in" 1 week ago:
cooking is a basic survival skill.
So was hunting and gathering for food … but than we had a civilisation with division of labour an all.
- Comment on "Between raising two young boys and putting in long hours at a marketing job, Kevin Caldwell can almost never find the time to make dinner. So he and his husband spend about $700 a week to order in" 1 week ago:
You don’t have to spend one hour cooking. You can’t cook in 20 minutes.
I’d rather not cook at all. And what ever money I’m saving I could get more by just working the same time.
So don’t eat ultra processed food then. Order proper food from a proper restaurant.

I have the time, I just choose not to spent it on a cooking. There are much better things to relieve stress.

How does it not? It’s just a boring activity. What’s so great about cutting stuff into pieces, stirring and watching stuff get warm?
- Comment on "Between raising two young boys and putting in long hours at a marketing job, Kevin Caldwell can almost never find the time to make dinner. So he and his husband spend about $700 a week to order in" 1 week ago:
I’d rather work an hour than spend an hour cooking.
Also if you’re spending $700 it’s probably not just fast food, put proper restaurant take-out.

I totally feel that guy. Cooking sucks. If you have the money, that time can be spent on something better instead.
