its too bad we can't give readers 'dumb readers' tag or 'skim everything then show their poor understanding' tag lol

Sweet dreams are made of this...

You can self fund it! Only costs $250,000 an episode or so!

If i managed to make a cake, even using a mixture from the shelf, I would damn sure call myself a baker after such an accomplishment!!! :ROFLMAO: Also, making instant noodles is a science. I would call it science. :geek:
