the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, she musta been aiming for another organ
I was dating a girl several years my junior, a 2nd year uni student.
that week, i'd cooked her a nice but simple italian meal, she decided to respond in kind.

I turned up at her house just as she was starting to cook.
so she's popped boiling water in a pan. salted it. added pasta. so far so good.
she's chopping an onion. nothing strange here.

ooookaaaaayyy. she's added the onion to the boiling water with the pasta. alarm bells are ringing.

she's now peeling a couple cloves of garlic. where is this going? please god not in the boiling water...

okay she's draining the pasta/translucent slimy boiled onion mess.
now she's heading to the fridge.. what fresh hell is this?

she's emptying a tub of cold, i mean chilled, co-op salsa dip, you know like you would dunk your doritos in, on top of the past and boiled onion.

christ.

but what about the garlic? i'm sure she peeled some garlic..

wait...
she's now GRATING the raw garlic into the lukewarm mess.
Aaaaand.. serve.



still makes me boggle. how did she survive uni? i didn't hang round much longer to find out.
footnote: to quell the inevitable questions of why i didn't say anything- equal parts not wanting to offend, and being tired of dragging my overfilled nutsack about like a fucking spacehopper.

Girl I knew at Uni
used to chop an apple into a bowl (a bowl!) of ketchup, a stick it in the microwave.

To be fair, though, very few students can cook. I was considered a culinary genius in my househare because I could make lasagne.

In one of those pan-Asian restaurants where you pick your ingredients and they stir-fry them for you
I witnessed a guy who'd decided he was going to have only salad this time round, and the manager had to dash urgently to his table and inform him that that pink, squidgy vegetable he has picked was in fact raw chicken.

She survived because you don't need common sense to do well in academic circles.

she was 'studying' sociology
i believe the degree certificates are actually available for free in the gents toilets, on little rolls if you know where to look.
