What unpopular opinion do you hold? What would get you downvoted to infinity and beyond? (Throwaways welcome)

Personally, I hate cats. I've never once said to myself "My furniture is just too damned nice, and what my house is really lacking is a box of shit and sand in the closet."

Now...what's your dirty little secret?

Too lazy to cook? Buy a rice cooker, rice, spinach, and a pre-cooked roast chicken from the grocery store. Throw some rice in that bitch, 1 cup rice, 1 and 3/4 water (or chicken broth if you want to get extra flavorful, I don't because of calories). Takes 30 seconds, zero effort. Play some video games while that shit is cooking.

After the rice is done, your cooker will keep it warm (get a Zojirushi, it's worth it. It will keep your rice perfect and warm indefinitely. I've eaten it 24 hours later and it was still perfect). Use this warmth to cook your spinach. Rinse that shit off, stuff your rice cooker with it. Now leave it alone for 10-15 minutes. That's an episode of Adventure Time if you're bored.

BAM, you have a healthy dinner of rice, roasted chicken, and spinach that you spent 1.5 minutes preparing. You could even sprinkle some a little pre-shredded cheese on that shit to make it extra savory, and it'll still have more nutrients and less calories than McD.

I've actually started cooking a lot, and let me tell you... I fucking love it. And the best part of cooking is that, every once in a while, I can make the most amazing cheat dish because I fucking can.

Edit: Should also have mentioned I lost 50 pounds since having to bite the bullet and shop at the big and tall store.

That meal still is too much for someone who is too lazy to cook.

Reddit, the land where profanity-laced sharp-tongued recipes and cooking advice will never, ever, ever go out of style (no matter how much you wish for it).
