[QUOTE="DarkwingPsyduck, post: 686961, member: 20267"] Funny story; when I first moved in with this aunt and uncle, I didn't know the first thing about them. And they knew very little about me. So it was understandably pretty awkward at first. They were both working long hours, so I basically had the run of the place much of the time. I got hungry one night, and wanted to try to make chili in a can. But I couldn't figure out how to use a can opener. I am not kidding, I tried for half an hour without success. Eventually, I got kind of annoyed, and started beating the can against a rock in the back yard. STILL wouldn't open. I put it back in the pantry, and just gave up. It was still awkward, so I was never asking my aunt for anything at all. A few months go by, and she is rooting around in the pantry and finds that can of chili. I explained what had happened to it, and she found it pretty amusing. That day, she went out and bought an electric can opener, and a cookbook full of very simple meals to make. Still cannot prepare a single one. To me, if I can't put it in a microwave, it may as well be inedible. Even if it can be put in the microwave, it is often still inedible. I am THAT bad of a cook.
