Today, I was sick with the flu so my boyfriend announced that he would make me some chicken soup. It was touching until I stumbled to the kitchen and found out that his "chicken soup" was actually leftover KFC bones boiled in water. FML

Today, I was sick and laid up in bed, and my boyfriend decided to bring me some soup. Just as he reached the bed, he tripped over his own feet and spilled the soup all over me. FML

Today, I made chicken noodle soup for the girl I've been seeing to help her get over her cold. From scratch. Everything fresh save for the canned chicken stock. It took an hour in preparation and half an hour to take the bus to her place. Her first words? The celery's not cooked enough. FML

Classic brain fart

Today, I lovingly simmered a chicken carcass, vegetables and spices to make soup. Two hours it took. After all that, I mindlessly strained out the chicken bones and let the soup pour straight down the sink. FML

Today, I was in bed sick from pneumonia. I asked my boyfriend to nuke a can of soup for me. He said "in a sec, let me finish this game" and continued to play on his Xbox for an hour. Starving, I crawled out to make soup. When I sat down to eat, he paused the game and asked "you didn't make me any?" FML

Honey…

Today, I had a horrible stomach flu and was well into my second hour of dry heaving when I heard my husband knock on the bathroom door. I was touched that he was worried about me, until I heard, "Honey, what did you make for dinner?" FML

Today, my boyfriend made me breakfast because I had a cold. Because my nose was so stuffed, I couldn't tell that our milk had gone bad. I had two cups. And now I'm stuck on the toilet. FML

Today, I was miserable with a cold. So I ordered soup and noodles from a new Chinese restaurant. Now I am miserable with a cold and food poisoning. FML

Survival mode

Today, my boyfriend scolded me for asking whether he’d like his favorite soup for lunch when he was, "in absolutely no shape to survive ingesting food." Two hours later he's greedily digging into an almost expired pack of cheap and nasty supermarket waffles from out of his bag. FML

Kitchen daydream

By Rordon Gamsey - 02/08/2022 16:00

Today, I was "that idiot" who spent ages making a soup stock from meat and vegetables, but then while separating it forgot to put a pan under the strainer, so I poured the finished stock down the sink, leaving me with only the boiled meat and veg sat sadly in the strainer. Takeaway chinese for tea, then. FML

Today, I was eating chicken noodle soup for my lunch. It was perfect until the last bite when it went down the wrong pipe. Choking, I coughed up what I'd already eaten. In front of my coworkers, and all over myself. FML

Oh, yeah. FYL because you have a boyfriend that actually cares. Stop being a whiny bitch and appreciate that he's at least trying to help you feel better.

At least he was trying. He was taking care of you when you were sick, and that's pretty damn nice. Shut up and eat. When I was sick, my bf, who doesn't know how to cook, spent the whole day with me. He asked his mother how to make some simple things, and tried to do it. He did it with absolutely no help, and it was his first time, so it didn't taste really good, but I was touched. He made an effort. He showed me he cares. THAT'S what I appreciate.

I think there's a slight difference between going to your mother and asking for some ideas than cooking things that have already been in your mouth. I'd be disgusted, even if it's a nice gesture, there are some boundaries.

Who are we to tell those weren't leftovers of chicken SHE ate?

These kids are unbelievable. None of them probably cook so they have no idea what is involved in food preparation. I bet they wouldn't eat chicken again if they had to cook a whole chicken from the store. Reaching up the bird's butt and pulling out the neck and other goodies while pink fluid went everywhere would be too much for this crowd.

I actually cook for my entire family, including chicken noodle soup from scratch, with whole chickens from the store. And I'm vegetarian. It's pretty gross. It's still gross, I don't care what you guys put in your mouths besides food, there's a point between thoughtful and lazy. And KFC I hardly count as edible anyway, let alone twice cooked.

awww. Well, it's the thought that counts. That's about what I'd expect from my boyfriend if he were to make chicken soup.

OMG just because it says left over doesn't mean someone took a bite out of it and put it down it could mean maybe it was left over in the fridge uneaten seriously
