Stop spying me when I’m cooking!
You can learn to feel the hardness of the noodles through the spoon you use to stir them with, that’s what I do. I can tell if noodles are done just by stirring them in the boiling water. Take a few out to eat to check them and you’re done. Ezpz, no instructions needed.
First panel should be throw it in the trash first, then realize you need the cooking instructions.
That better be from the pasta region of Italy, otherwise it’s just sparkling noodles.
Happened to me more than once…
I got tired of doing this so I just started to leave the box on the counter until after I’ve set a timer. And it gives you something else to do while your pasta or whatever cooks.
It needs to go from hand to trash. If it goes onto the counter it’s there for days.
I just make sure the instructions are facing up when they go in the bin. Just needs a quick glance without any extra steps to distract and make you forget. (I got rid of the bin lids as my trash/recycle is usually dry and doesn’t smell)
I like how the eyes goes outside the face in this comic
Agreed, that is my favourite feature of these
Obligatory comment for all of them.
Take a photo of the instructions.
When you forget to do that, look up the product online, the cooking instructions should be there.
Instead of putting it in the trash, why don’t you figure out what you can put in the box to reuse or recycle it?
I use pasta boxes to store old pasta boxes. No waste that way, and a great inheritance for my kids.
Unfortunately, it’s difficult to reuse or recycle pasta boxes when their composition includes 50% or higher of fictional materials.
This is the only correct brain worms take, why is it being down voted?
because the average person would accumulate hundreds of pasta boxes over the course of their life
Yes. Has stuff like that ever been a reason for ADHD brains to not engage in these thoughts?
You seen Hoarders, right?
I haven’t but I’m aware of it. What I wasn’t aware of is that here, in the comments under a comic making fun of the irrational bullshit adhd brains like to spend their time with, we take everything dead serious and do NOT make fun of the irrational bullshit our brains like to spend their time with. Such as when they start coming up with nonsense that a stupid box might yet be useful for while idling and waiting for the noodles to be done. I apologise for my oversight.
