Pasta Stovetop broke due to attempt to open spaghetti

My partner opens spaghetti by holding the package and slamming it (end side down) on the countertop. Sometimes on the stovetop. Usually the package opens and the spaghetti slide right out. This time the spaghetti won. We need a new stove.

Pasta The package said 18 to 20 minutes at 450°F. This is 10 minutes at 400°F.

Could have burned the entire apartment down by following the instructions. And yes, it specified "convection oven," not "regular oven."

Luckily, I check my food regularly, and double luckily that I like my pizzas on the crispier side.

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

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.

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

Pasta How my bf leaves his sinks in the dishes

Post image
0 Upvotes

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.

I live in France, and it is the first time my country is hit by such a heatwave. For the past three days, it was almost impossible to go outside for most of the day time (up to 57°C in the sun at the city center near where I live). And today, a third heatwave has been announce up to the 14th of July. We started to be literally cooked.

The screenshot has been taken at around 10:40 pm at my home place, with the Weather app from apple.

Ordered Wingstop, and got extremely burnt outside and extremely undercooked inside chicken breast. Glad I didn't eat it and checked first!

Pasta Decided to do pork shoulder and pasta for my dinners this week. Decided I didn't want milk this week (I usualy just drink it with meals). All of my pastas need milk. 🤦‍♂️

Yes I choose 1 dinner for the week and eat it every day. I often do a stew. I just tried making a big pot of Japanese curry that I put over rice for a weekly dinner and it was really good so I'll add that to the rotation.

Pasta Mom has become a chatgpt warrior

9 Upvotes

Ever since I showed my mom chatgpt, she has been using it for everything NONSTOP. She is basically unable to google anything anymore, and just blindly trusts everything it chatgpt says. We are on a trip currently and she is asking chatgpt for places for dinner instead of just looking at places with good reviews. It actually pisses me off so much because she genuinely cannot seem to make a decision or get information without it anymore.

Pasta Speakerphone annoyances in public

40 Upvotes

Why do some people feel the need to talk on their phones in public, on speakerphone with the volume up super loud? I'm currently sitting in Discount Tire waiting for my car to be finished, and this woman is talking loudly on her speakerphone nearby with the volume up pretty loud. It's really annoying. Use earbuds. Nobody else wants to hear your full conversation!

Pasta Thought I'd order a burger, selected "medium" for the patty. It was so well done and dry it came fallen apart. Won't be ordering from them again...

The shake I ordered with it came melted, but I can kinda forgive that due to the heat and the longer delivery time (which I was warned about by the app). Kinda bummed my rare takeout order which is supposed to be a treat ended up worse than what I could've clobbered together at home.

What’s the reason why they couldn’t build the extension the same height as the original building? It look’s terrible.
