cooking

We can bet that every single person reading this asked the "Mom-can-we-go-out-to-eat?" question during childhood just to hear her say "no, we have food at home." And course, usually the food at home is far less tasty than anything you could've gotten at the drive-thru (especially when your parents aren't the best cooks...).

But in the end, we're secretly thankful that our parents provided us with home-cooked meals as kids, even if those meals tended to be un-sauced spaghetti noodles and a slice of unseasoned ham on the side.

Do you feel like you're having a bad day? Take a gander at these pics and you'll probably change your mind pretty quick. In fact, looking at pics of people having a bad time can really up your morale. Circumstances could always be a lot worse, right? We're inclined to think so.

We all know Gordon Ramsay for his fiery-tempered demeanor on TV, but according to his Twitter account he's also liable to roast average people and their cooking to an absolute crisp.

We're not totally sure if these people were trying to troll Ramsay, or if their cooking really is that horrid. Either way, they certainly succeeded in setting him off!

Kitchen Nightmares is already a wonderfully trashy show on its own, but it got so much better when we discovered the Twitter account Kitchen Nightmares Bot, which spits out parodies of episode titles. You know that anything with Gordon Ramsay in it is automatically going to be entertaining as hell, but add in bot-generated content and you've got yourself some internet gold.

Adulting is hard for anyone in their twenties who's just starting to figure out this roller coaster we call life. Hell, even if you're well past your twenties, adulting still makes no goddamn sense half the time. Let these semi-serious tips help you to not look like a complete fool when you have guests come over to your humble abode.
