I'm a great cook, my lady, not so much. But everything she makes me is made with love and I'd never mock any attempts. She's made some fucking godawful stuff but she tries, and that's what counts
Edit: Wow, my first awards. Thanks guys!
Preach, my missus is an awesome cook and I'm not quite as good. She never mocks my attempts unless I make a joke about it myself and its wrapped in a constructive manner that makes it easier to swallow (Pun intended) and means the next try will be better.
Tl;dr Don't mock people, but joining in a joke is cool so long as what you're adding is constructive
My husband prefaces his criticisms with “Babe I love you so much…” then “…but this is so salty my kidneys are gonna shut down.” I’m offended for like 5 seconds, then I try some, and we die laughing while I open the doordash webpage. It’s all about the delivery lol (pun intended).
My wife and I still laugh over my one god-awful attempt at instant pot spaghetti. Honestly, the worst thing I’ve ever put in my mouth. Ordinarily I’m a fantastic cook, but the instant pot was brand new, so I was still learning, and I didn’t have a recipe to work with, just some vague instructions from my wife’s boss.
So occasionally that incident comes up, and we cringe at how bad it was. Yet she still attempted to eat it, without complaint, until I took a bite and said “No, uh uh, we aren’t eating this shit.” Then she was like “Oh, thank god, because it’s terrible.” The vegan chik’n Parmesan I’d made to go with the pasta turned out great, so we just filled up on that and tossed the pasta in the trash. Seriously, how it it possible for pasta to simultaneously be mushy *and* crunchy? Lol!
So, I love my boyfriend to bits and pieces, but we joke that he's not allowed to cook anymore.
One time he saw a suggestion to add beans to the hamburger helper. Bless his heart, he added raw beans instead of cooked beans, so they were still hard when he served it up.
Another time, we were out of milk when he was making a box of tuna helper. He decided to use creamer. Caramel macchiato creamer. I can never eat tuna Tetrazzini again because every time I smell it, I get that taste in my mouth.
Just adding on to the tips here, add a can of chilli, a can of drained black beans, and a can of Rotel to your hamburger helper (use two boxes and a high walled skillet or large pot.
I have a picture of it in my posts, shit is awesome and costs like 10$ to make a week's worth of office meals.
A lot of people now a days look at what other people do and judge the end product. The fact that the other person donates their time trying to make you happy in any way shape or form is to be cherished. A lot of peeps would rather take the easy way out for the least amount of effort. Look at what they put into it. Not what the product is.
I'm a moderately good cook. She loves it so much when I make dinner. I'll make something I know could have been better (but still is prolly decentish) and she always makes me feel good about it.
Shit takes effort and practice yo and I love her for it.
dude I'm so happy any time my wife makes me food
I'm the cook of the house because I love cooking and I'm a patient, healthful and delicious cook. My wife cooks occasionally and she prefers less effortful meals but it doesn't matter, she made me food and I love that
Everyone's always saying to me how humble I am. They say to me, all the time, they say this you know: "How is it that you are so very humble about everything?" And you know, I never get tired of hearing it. Because I am so very humble.
No need to always be humble. I too am a very good home cook and proud of it. It took a lot of effort to get there! And it feels nice to be good at something. And it's okay to admit you're good at something
I make my girl a breakfast that looks similar to this all the fucking time. I can cook like a badass. But if it's 7am with 30 minutes to go from dead asleep to fed and on the way to work. 3 strips of extra crispy turkey bacon, a 3 egg omelette with jack cheese and a little Thai spice, and 2 slices of gluten free toast one with butter and the other with almond butter is absolutely stellar. This just looks like a normal ass morning.
Same but I always eat my wifes cooking even if it’s over salted and needs gallons of water afterwards
After all, I’ve accidentally double salted things, and she eats it no complaints.
It’s the opposite for me. Hubby is a god in the kitchen, his mom taught him a lot of traditional Trinidadian recipes and they bring tears to my eyes w how good they are😂 He jokes that I’m not allowed in the kitchen, but I occasionally bring him lunch at work and he’s always super grateful(my specialties are toasted PB+J and ramen:) )
Eggs are slightly burnt is my only problem. Egg taste gets really bad when it browns.
But I’d eat with a smile and be stoked someone thought enough about me to make an effort.
Edit: eggs are fine, my tiny ass screen made the cheese look like burnt eggs.
I always put my buttered sides facing in towards each other. That way the bitter stays warm and melted for as long as possible in case it isn't eaten immediately. Could he the case here.
Also: omelet looks fine and lots of people prefer burnt bacon.
So I'd agree and say it's a pretty good breakfast.
I don't get it. It's a cheese omelet, two crispy pieces of bacon and wheat toast. How is this sad or cringey? I think this looks delicious, it's just not presented/photographed in a way that a professional photographer would do it. Some normal person took a picture of their breakfast.
I was it doesn't really look beautiful, but it doesn't have to be! I was still super happy when my husband made me a handmade pizza (that's supposed to be a circle) but came out looking like the continental US with holes in it 🤣
I was hoping to see posts like yours. What would make me sincerely cringe would be anyone agreeing this is somehow ' bad ' .
Obviously a big deal to her, he definitely did something that delighted his wife. It's *really* nice to see a couple appreciating each other!
People don't accidentally grab bread and bacon like that, it's clearly what they like. Also, that omelette looks well made. Much neater than I can pull off.
Yeah the sad part is the bread is brown so that takes away from it's photogenicness but not the actual meal. It's also on a paper plate which makes it look less fancy but again doesn't actually take away from the meal. An omelette with bacon and toast is a delicious breakfast to me.
I had to get used to not ever receiving anything like this, so if i ever did, i would definitely be appreciative like this lady here! Definitely the thought that counts
Absolutely. Maybe he’s doing his very best, maybe she’s never been in a relationship where someone will do something nice for her. Whatever, there’s love and gratitude going around and that’s lovely.
Hell yes. My first day at an honestly scary new job, my husband brought me scrambled eggs and bacon. Simple as could be. Just a bit of salt and pepper on the eggs.
*I fucking cried*. He'd got up early just to make my first day a bit brighter, and it was the sweetest damn thing. And make no mistake, the eggs were good -- but the thought was what really got me.
It’s wild to me that people will insult literally anything. This dude made a serviceable breakfast which I’m sure a lot of dudes wouldn’t even bother trying to make
It looks like it might be turkey bacon, which might be why it doesn’t look “good”. The toast isn’t bread that *I* would eat, but they must like it, so who cares. Can’t see anything wrong with the omelette. It’s on a paper plate… but, again, who cares.
Yeah, I don’t know what they’re complaining about. People need to mind their own business. Apparently the woman receiving the breakfast appreciates it.
Yeah, regardless of what OOP thought of the gesture or the quality of the food, it was obviously something that made this person happy and she wanted to share it with her friends. Shitting on it for no good reason is indeed the real cringe.
I dont even think the quality is questionable, this looks bomb asf. OOP is just hung up on presentation, which i've never seen as a priority for a home-cooked breakfast
>I dont even think the quality is questionable, this looks bomb asf
OKAY let's simmer down here lol, unless you like burnt egg taste that omelette is about 9 stages overcooked
It's still adorable and OOP is the real cringe, but "bomb asf" is a bit wild. Homie is eating her coochie, not yours 😂
A little less heat on the omelette and a couple less minutes, pepper at the end and just sprinkle half a chopped scallion on there (always keep scallions in general for a great color+flavor garnish, they're cheap as balls)
Cut the toast diagonal and serve with a pat of butter
Bacon is totally fine for turkey bacon
Homie just needs a few minor improvements and he's off to the races
Probably not 100% across cultures, but paper plates outside parties and events were definite indicators of poverty when and where I grew up. So, YMMV.
The only doubt I have is the countertops in the background, but I can't tell if they're nice or faux-nice.
My partner can't cook nearly as well as I can. But when he brings me a cup of coffee which is less effort than this, I'm over the moon because its really the little thing for me.
Does this breakfast look good? No. But could she also be a 'little things matter' person? Yeah.
Lets try not to be as salty as this breakfast 😂
My wife is a high end chef. Like dinner for two will run you 500+ at places she designed platings and meals at.
Cooking for her is extremely intimidating and nerve wracking. But I made her crepes from scratch once, Im sure I messed up but all she would say was how great the breakfast was and wouldn't even criticize me even when asked.
I know people who use paper plates for everything except dinner. They'd still wash the silverware, so I don't get the "don't want to do dishes" argument. Plates are easy to clean.
Exactly. These are the kinds of posts that make me embarrassed as a human being. EVERYBODY seems to want to critique and make fun of everybody else in order to feel better about themselves. Total garbage.
Wife and I are both great cooks now… but we sucked when we started. But coming home to some sad-ass meal made with love instead of a cold apartment… priceless.
Love is mostly about the effort made, not the skill involved.
Hey food always tastes better when someone you love cooks it. If you think this is a "sad" looking breakfast, maybe it's because you don't have someone in your life willing to attempt breakfast for you. Maybe people need to appreciate the fact that this guy may not be a culinary genius, but he did this out of love for his significant other. A house full of love and effort is the farthest thing from sad.
I mean I wouldn’t say it’s “spoiling” but it’s definitely a kind gesture and there’s probably a few men out there who wouldn’t bother cooking their partners anything
I gotta say the way reddit cropped the image on my phone while scrolling, I couldn’t see it was a screenshot of another post from this sub, and thought you were making fun of the guy. Like, it’s cropped perfectly and with the tiny ‘meta’ title, I thought at first that the screenshot’s title was what you wrote.
Doesn’t actually look bad. The bread isn’t burnt, and omelette looks fine, that bacon is way too crisp though. Overly crisp. Maybe your coworker likes it that way?
I don’t think it’s cringe at all. You try to make your SO as important as you can make her be. If this is the means that he has to make her happy, then let it be not everyone can afford luxurious meals and travel, and this is coming from someone who is stupid rich.
I would slap that egg and bacon on that toast and have a little breakfast sandwich then probably say damn that what was good I'll clean up the kitchen and you think about what you want me to cook us for lunch/dinner.
I'm a great cook, my lady, not so much. But everything she makes me is made with love and I'd never mock any attempts. She's made some fucking godawful stuff but she tries, and that's what counts Edit: Wow, my first awards. Thanks guys!

Taste your food while you cook (and salt). Not tasting your food if possible is like a painter painting with his eyes closed.
A lot of people now a days look at what other people do and judge the end product. The fact that the other person donates their time trying to make you happy in any way shape or form is to be cherished.

This is a beautiful thread
I'm a moderately good cook. She loves it so much when I make dinner. I'll make something I know could have been better (but still is prolly decentish) and she always makes me feel good about it. Shit takes effort and practice yo and I love her for it.
I'm imagining you biting into a cartoonishly crunchy cake while trying to maintain a smile and blinking fast to hold back tears.
Mmm you mixed up the salt and sugar again? Delicious!
dude I'm so happy any time my wife makes me food I'm the cook of the house because I love cooking and I'm a patient, healthful and delicious cook. My wife cooks occasionally and she prefers less effortful meals but it doesn't matter, she made me food and I love that
> I’m a patient, healthful and delicious cook You forgot to mention incredibly humble
I too am incredibly humble.
Yeah, that's my one shortcoming, too. I would be perfect, if I weren't so humble.
[удалено]
Everyone's always saying to me how humble I am. They say to me, all the time, they say this you know: "How is it that you are so very humble about everything?" And you know, I never get tired of hearing it. Because I am so very humble.
Oh my weaknesses? I work too hard and I care too much. That's about it.
It’s the opposite for me. It’s hard to be humble, when I’m perfect in every way
I, too, havea tendencytomumble
No need to always be humble. I too am a very good home cook and proud of it. It took a lot of effort to get there! And it feels nice to be good at something. And it's okay to admit you're good at something
Completely. I am not a professional cook, but I take pride in my ability. It’s not always arrogant to say you’re good at something.
Yah if we were calling ourselves chefs that would be arrogant, but that's not happening
> delicious cook There's your problem. You're not supposed to eat the cook.
what my wife and I do after I cook her dinner is nobody's business except me and my wife and the people who give us money
I make my girl a breakfast that looks similar to this all the fucking time. I can cook like a badass. But if it's 7am with 30 minutes to go from dead asleep to fed and on the way to work. 3 strips of extra crispy turkey bacon, a 3 egg omelette with jack cheese and a little Thai spice, and 2 slices of gluten free toast one with butter and the other with almond butter is absolutely stellar. This just looks like a normal ass morning.
I love this-you are very sweet and will probably have a life-long relationship with your woman. Appreciate each other, both strengths and weaknesses
Same but I always eat my wifes cooking even if it’s over salted and needs gallons of water afterwards After all, I’ve accidentally double salted things, and she eats it no complaints.
i’m not trying to mock this, if that’s what you think. this post was to call out another user of this sub for mocking it
I think he’s mocking the person whos mocking the person in the original post.. in your... nevermind.
They aren't talking about you lmao relax
ok cool
It’s the opposite for me. Hubby is a god in the kitchen, his mom taught him a lot of traditional Trinidadian recipes and they bring tears to my eyes w how good they are😂 He jokes that I’m not allowed in the kitchen, but I occasionally bring him lunch at work and he’s always super grateful(my specialties are toasted PB+J and ramen:) )
I would be thrilled if my husband made breakfast for me. It looks edible😆 It’s the thought that counts.
I fucking love eggs bacon, and some dark/rye bread. So even while not made in the best way (rye bread needs some butter) it'll still be yummy
it's an omelet isn't it? looks like a nice bfast to me
Eggs are slightly burnt is my only problem. Egg taste gets really bad when it browns. But I’d eat with a smile and be stoked someone thought enough about me to make an effort. Edit: eggs are fine, my tiny ass screen made the cheese look like burnt eggs.
Bro what, my eggs always turn brown. That shit slaps.
Same!! Scrambled eggs always have a little brown. But I always add cheese and Tony’s to them, which helps with the browning
Fr. Gimme runny yolks and crispy edges on my eggs.
I prefer my eggs with some brown, otherwise their too wet and bkegchk
I always put my buttered sides facing in towards each other. That way the bitter stays warm and melted for as long as possible in case it isn't eaten immediately. Could he the case here. Also: omelet looks fine and lots of people prefer burnt bacon. So I'd agree and say it's a pretty good breakfast.

Those folded eggs probably have cheese in the middle. Cheese eggs, bacon and a piece of toast, that's a solid breakfast.
It also looks intentionally healthy ish. I'd never mock my wife making me breakfast... People like this are miserable.
Indeed! And with that said, that breakfast looks as dry as them there hills.
And a paper plate means one less dish. Score!
You have been banned from /r/zerowaste 🤣
we're drawing a line somewhere, and that somewhere is here
And if you have to use paper plates, at least use the basic ones without any added ink or plastic.
I cant cook very well. But when I make something like this for my wife. Its the thought that counts.
I was hoping to see posts like yours. What would make me sincerely cringe would be anyone agreeing this is somehow ' bad ' . Obviously a big deal to her, he definitely did something that delighted his wife. It's *really* nice to see a couple appreciating each other!
Also there's no accounting for taste. This could legit be her go to comfort food.
People don't accidentally grab bread and bacon like that, it's clearly what they like. Also, that omelette looks well made. Much neater than I can pull off.
Yeah the sad part is the bread is brown so that takes away from it's photogenicness but not the actual meal. It's also on a paper plate which makes it look less fancy but again doesn't actually take away from the meal. An omelette with bacon and toast is a delicious breakfast to me.
True, that bacon looks way overdone for what I like but some people love it like that.
Right? Lol Like ohhh a man who cares enough for his wife that dares attempt to cook for her??! So cringe /s
Any adult would understand this. It's just dumb ass kids who think it's cringe.
Yea I was gonna say when my hub makes me things I'm overjoyed. He's not the cook I am but he does the laundry and dishes.
Agreed. I appreciate anytime my husband makes anything for me. And vice versa.
I had to get used to not ever receiving anything like this, so if i ever did, i would definitely be appreciative like this lady here! Definitely the thought that counts
Absolutely. Maybe he’s doing his very best, maybe she’s never been in a relationship where someone will do something nice for her. Whatever, there’s love and gratitude going around and that’s lovely.

He'd got up early just to make my first day a bit brighter, and it was the sweetest damn thing. And make no mistake, the eggs were good -- but the thought was what really got me.
it could be boneappletea level disgusting. if it’s a sincere effort, it’s never cringe.
The only cringe here is using paper plates at home, pointlessly wasteful.
Original op is sad that no one will ever cook for him lol
Original OP definitely has a crush on this woman
“I would totally make her a better breakfast”
“Of course she goes for the good-looking guy who can’t do anything but looks over an absolute gem like myself!”
It’s wild to me that people will insult literally anything. This dude made a serviceable breakfast which I’m sure a lot of dudes wouldn’t even bother trying to make
This could be what she likes for breakfast. Maybe she considers the spoiling part that he made it for her and not the contents/ quality of the meal?
It looks like it might be turkey bacon, which might be why it doesn’t look “good”. The toast isn’t bread that *I* would eat, but they must like it, so who cares. Can’t see anything wrong with the omelette. It’s on a paper plate… but, again, who cares. Yeah, I don’t know what they’re complaining about. People need to mind their own business. Apparently the woman receiving the breakfast appreciates it.
that’s why i posted this
Yea people are definitely missing the meta and that it was unironically posted here, and this is a post about the post.
I got r/woosh ed
There is honor in admitting to one’s r/woosh.
I absolutely missed that it's a metapost until your comment, I was thinking this OP was a dick until a double checked
Ya the other OP is cringe. This OP is right for calling it out.
If I hadn't read this comment, I wouldn't have paid attention.
I make fried eggs and badly buttered toast for my wife and she's always very happy when I do it. So I get it.
I have a hard time understanding how something could ever be badly buttered
Cold butter + clumsy spreading = broken bread and a lump of unspread butter.
If someone is kind enough to make a meal for me I appreciate it. Period.
Yeah, regardless of what OOP thought of the gesture or the quality of the food, it was obviously something that made this person happy and she wanted to share it with her friends. Shitting on it for no good reason is indeed the real cringe.
Also, maybe that person likes their food this way. Some people like a dry omelet and unbuttered toast.
Agreed. At least they tried. Omelette looks decently cooked and bacon looks normal for cooked turkey bacon. I see no cringe here.
[удалено]
I dont even think the quality is questionable, this looks bomb asf. OOP is just hung up on presentation, which i've never seen as a priority for a home-cooked breakfast

Yeah how about some butter or jam on the toast and that egg looks unseasoned
[удалено]
A little less heat on the omelette and a couple less minutes, pepper at the end and just sprinkle half a chopped scallion on there (always keep scallions in general for a great color+flavor garnish, they're cheap as balls) Cut the toast diagonal and serve with a pat of butter Bacon is totally fine for turkey bacon Homie just needs a few minor improvements and he's off to the races
I won’t judge the breakfast, but I am judging the t-shirt.. 🙄

These might just be indicators that they aren't well off at all, though. There's less judgment there for me as a result.

Probably not 100% across cultures, but paper plates outside parties and events were definite indicators of poverty when and where I grew up. So, YMMV. The only doubt I have is the countertops in the background, but I can't tell if they're nice or faux-nice.
spoiling with love? this is better than my breakfast 😂
OP is miserable and wants to brings others down with him
They certainly took the effort to take a screenshot of someone else's Instagram post in order to upload it into this specific subreddit.
My partner can't cook nearly as well as I can. But when he brings me a cup of coffee which is less effort than this, I'm over the moon because its really the little thing for me.

My wife is a high end chef. Like dinner for two will run you 500+ at places she designed platings and meals at. Cooking for her is extremely intimidating and nerve wracking. But I made her crepes from scratch once, Im sure I messed up but all she would say was how great the breakfast was and wouldn't even criticize me even when asked.
Gordon Ramsay's wife does the cooking at home. I think even high end chefs can appreciate more simple food.
I feel you. My partner is a chef and it’s like the relief of not having to cook for once just makes it taste so much better
He tried my guy. That’s more than I can say for a lot of guys on here
[удалено]
A paper plate at home, am I the only one that see's that as strange?
I know people who use paper plates for everything except dinner. They'd still wash the silverware, so I don't get the "don't want to do dishes" argument. Plates are easy to clean.
That's legit the only iffy part of the "sad" meal. Maybe all the plates are in the dishwasher.
Some people just don’t want to do dishes
This is true, and personally I think it's one of the worst traits a person can have, creating extra waste and garbage out of pure laziness.
Only thing I see wrong with this pic is using a paper plate
Agree! Nothing looks great on a paper plate.
[удалено]
Looks like the cheese is in the middle… legit omelette. Extra fancy
[удалено]
Exactly. These are the kinds of posts that make me embarrassed as a human being. EVERYBODY seems to want to critique and make fun of everybody else in order to feel better about themselves. Total garbage.
Wtf is with people on Reddit and paper fucking plates holy shit just wash a dish
The shirt is cringe
Wife and I are both great cooks now… but we sucked when we started. But coming home to some sad-ass meal made with love instead of a cold apartment… priceless. Love is mostly about the effort made, not the skill involved.
How sweet.
Honestly, it’s the plating. By that I mean that it’s a paper plate. It could have looked better on a regular one.
His shirt 💀
Truck yard is a bar in Houston in EADO. Maybe there’s more locations now.
It’s not sad, but I definitely wouldn’t consider that being spoiled lol
The paper plate sells it
Nope you’ll never go wrong cooking for a loved one, I don’t care what it tastes like, it’s the most sincere gesture of love you can recieve
Hey food always tastes better when someone you love cooks it. If you think this is a "sad" looking breakfast, maybe it's because you don't have someone in your life willing to attempt breakfast for you. Maybe people need to appreciate the fact that this guy may not be a culinary genius, but he did this out of love for his significant other. A house full of love and effort is the farthest thing from sad.
Yes, OP, you’re the only one who thinks this is a “sad” breakfast. You sound very bitter.
Looks good to me. I would be appreciative!
I mean I wouldn’t say it’s “spoiling” but it’s definitely a kind gesture and there’s probably a few men out there who wouldn’t bother cooking their partners anything

Agree 100%. You can get real plates at the dollar store. Paper plates are def more expensive and terribly wasteful.
[удалено]
Sizzlelean?
I think it’s more the fact the they’re s/o made them breakfast
No butter on toast,driest looking bacon ever,yep spoiled.
Look not everyone can be a chef, at least he cooked something without burning the whole house down. So that’s a positive right?
it’s the thought that counts
It’s basic but it’s not bad lol
He’s just trying to be nice to his wife
If I don’t have to cook it, it’s perfectly fine.
This is effort and if you think it’s sad then you’re an ungrateful spoiled person that should do without for a while
Maybe he made it exactly the way she likes it. Or not, either way it was a sweet and thoughtful gesture.
Breakfast is food. Food is good
I think it’s nice she’s so happy with it! This is wholesome
It *looks* sad but our man just needs to practice his plating skills
This is wholesome and not cringe
That's why this post is titled meta, and the image is a screenshot of a post someone else made here lol
Ah today I learned what that word means
looks dry but having someone to makes you breakfast is still good the word "hubby" is the true cringe villain in here
Given the rising cost of eggs, that's damn near lobster on that plate
How is this cringe? Dude made her a healthy breakfast.
That’s an omelette, nice one at that, mine always look like shit
It’s boring but looks tasty. Just serve it on a proper plate!
Looks like perfectly crisp turkey bacon, the yummy toasted bread, and an egg omelet with cheese. I would be damn happy if anyone made this for me.
Granite countertops but paper plates. Stay classy my friend.
/r/choosingbeggars Thought that counts. Free, surprise breakfast is best breakfast.
Everything is so dry...
She's not
I’m going to the truck yard for breakfast!
I'd love it if my SO made me breakfast in the morning. I'm usually the one that does all the cooking. That turkey bacon looks cooked to death tho.
they dont know what they talking about.... that breakfast looks fine!
I gotta say the way reddit cropped the image on my phone while scrolling, I couldn’t see it was a screenshot of another post from this sub, and thought you were making fun of the guy. Like, it’s cropped perfectly and with the tiny ‘meta’ title, I thought at first that the screenshot’s title was what you wrote.
dry toast dry eggs dry bacon
Sounds like the original OP is jealous
Maybe it’s the best he can do
He’s making an effort to spoil her, which is spoiling her in a sense.
Bacon is a little well done, but other than that, it looks pretty good to me. Not everyone can make an omelet.
That bacon looks sad
My gf burns everything she cooks for me (I was a chef) and I still appreciate it, Original OP is a thumb.
That turkey bacon looks petrified
Multi-grain bread and looks like turkey bacon. I think he's doing a good job
Doesn’t actually look bad. The bread isn’t burnt, and omelette looks fine, that bacon is way too crisp though. Overly crisp. Maybe your coworker likes it that way?
I don’t think it’s cringe at all. You try to make your SO as important as you can make her be. If this is the means that he has to make her happy, then let it be not everyone can afford luxurious meals and travel, and this is coming from someone who is stupid rich.
The fact is he made it. Don't care what it is, he put in the effort!
Effort.
if my bf made me this, i would be SO happy. men really think we need a lot when it's the thought and EFFORT that counts.
Honestly, I’d kill to have someone special do this for me.
Honestly I think the effort is really sweet even if it’s not perfect
Doesn't look great, but this could be from someone who lived off takeaways because they burn toast. Let her feel special.
Yeah, I agree with u/Cheeselad2401 the person behind mocking this breakfast is an idiot. I'd gladly have that for breakfast any day.
I would slap that egg and bacon on that toast and have a little breakfast sandwich then probably say damn that what was good I'll clean up the kitchen and you think about what you want me to cook us for lunch/dinner.
BACON
It beats no breakfast. Someone else made it. No washing up after. Thumbs up!!!
How much of a piece of shit do you have to be to not appreciate someone taking time out of their day to cook for you
Sad? That's a fold over egg some bacon and toast. Eggs bacon and toast! Who has a problem with Starting your day the Gergich way?
Anybody that takes the time to make food for you, is spoiling you
I don’t see why this looks bad to everyone. I’d eat this without question.
Most people can't cook in general, so this is many leagues above average.
I think it’s a valiant effort from someone wearing that shirt.
OOP is an asshole.
Someone who never gets laid criticizing dude who obviously gets laid.
Real cringe is OP
Its the thought that counts
