Having done exactly 0 research, I going to assume it's one of those "DO NOT PRESS OKAY UNLESS YOU ARE EXPERIENCED AND KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING" and someone went "pffft I know what I'm doing. click now what does this option do..."

Jokes on you, my knife cost me $40 in steel, wood, brass, and sanding belts because I make my OWN knives for my cooking.

You know, I think I might just have two hobbies and one saved me money on the other....

In my experience most adults can boil pasta.

... And boil it.... And boil it..... And DEAR GOD TAKE IT OFF THE STOVE AND DRAIN IT BEFORE IT BECOMES MUSH!

"throwing together a quick meal" should have it's own word.

"cooking" to me implies you're working on something worth the time it takes, something you want to put effort into.

But when I just got home, nothing is easy to make and I have to throw something quick together, it doesn't feel like really cooking to me. Like im half assing it, it should have a half-assed name.

The difference between "cooking" and "hobby cooking" :

It kind of reads like the thought process of someone who just woke up, too.

I'm thinking of River Tam, from Firefly.

Whether she can or can't do that is still debatable, but she did tell Jayne she could. And she can read minds, so it's not entirely out of the question...

Brain fart! You are correct, I was thinking Celebrimbor forged the One Ring with Sauron.

Guess that just mean it's time to reread. Oh noooooooooo

It was forged by a being that was super old and didn't have any death on the horizon like mortals have, and had cruelty, malice, and a will to dominate all life poured into it ~~by another nearly-immortal being~~. It sat for two and a half thousand years doing diddly squat, passing out of all knowledge.

My point is, it's patient.

What's 500 years when compared with eternity?

My life has been directly, negatively impacted by Christian extremism far more than Islamic extremism.

So far I have yet to enter a clinic that has been damaged by a Muslim's molotov because someone is doing a thing that they think their special book says not to do.

All religion is incompatible with civilized society as long as there are those who would twist it into a cudgel to beat down the nonbelievers.

If you think that Islam is somehow worse than others, not only are you misinformed of current issues the world over, you are also misinformed about history in general.

It's the "Burning other magic rocks" party.
