Cooking is a very general term and can encompass a multitude of meanings. Indeed, one could attribute the nuances of its meanings to different situations, many of them a bit cultural, others fluid in their comparisons to what constitutes cooking or not. As somebody who loves to cook, I tend to think of "cooking" as a combination of initial preparation of ingredients mixed together and heated in a certain, distinct way, to create food. Pre-digestion, if you will; making it easier and more palatable for us to swallow, by cutting it up, mixing it up, and heating it up. One must take care to identify the distinctions between cooking and simply reheating something, the latter of which typically requires no initial preparation of manipulation while in the process of being heated. Because of very little to no initial ingredient preparation, I consider cup ramen to fall more into the reheating category rather than cooking (despite the use of boiling water and dried flaky bits), but again, it may very well be to the nuances of association surrounding ramen as a convenience food, and how we frame the act of cooking in a cultural light.
The sun shall rise as the deadline to the new games draw near and all. In the interim, I hope you return bringing sunshine to the forum as well. Good to see you back!
Wonderful to see you back on the forum as well! Now, now, please be careful with Migi, I implore you ...
Just to clarify, vaccines should still be quite important on one's list!
This forum and all its beautiful people must be a figment of my imagination. ... No ... surely not? Is this all for naught? All the moderation, all the helping members, all the caring memories we had together ... I was inactive for such a long time. I ... hate it. I always hated it. How I couldn't do anything. I wanted to quit being a moderator for a long time. I wanted to quit this place. I ruined everything. My inactivity has cost everything. I hate what I've done and haven't done. I hate this forum. I hate everything. I hate myself. It should all just burn. Spoiler But wait. There might be many possible internet realities. This current myself is not the same way. It's not the true myself. I can be any way I wish to be. I see! And myself who is not an inactive KHV member can exist as well! Still, the internet and forum itself might not be bad, but I could still hate myself. But ... Don't the others hate my lack of activity? But ... I hate my lack of activity. I'm a lurker. Lurking, invisible, and inactive! I ... hate being inactive. But maybe, maybe, I could be more active. Maybe, my membership could have a greater value ... That's right! I'm no more or less than myself! I am me! I want to be myself! I want to continue being active on this forum! My life is worth staying here!
THE FIREWORKS OUTSIDE MADE ME DEAF IN MY RIGHT EAR, SO I DECIDED TO GET A NEW ONE AS MY LAST ACT OF 2014 I HOPE YOUR EARS STAY INTACT FOR THE COMING YEAR
The fireworks outside made me deaf in my right ear, so I decided to get a new one as my last act of 2014. I hope your ears stay intact for the coming year.
Thank you very much!
You should watch Ano Hana or Clannad. Truly a laugh riot. I was in tears.
Jayn, Things like these are always tough decisions to make, especially when there is an enormous amount of stressful situations happening in one's life. It is natural to feel like the plans you had set did not work out as you wanted them. It is natural to feel like things are crumbling apart. But you are a very strong person, and I can say this with certainty from all the years I have had the pleasure of knowing you. You possess an unbelievable tenacity that is one of the many wonderful qualities we admire and look up to you for, and even when time feels like it is flowing in circles, perhaps the most assurance I have out of many things is that you will be able to overcome these obstacles. I cannot think of any other person who, in my sincerity, was a source of such positive memories for the community. Someone who gained the admiration and respect of essentially everyone. Someone who is still a source of inspiration to hundreds of people. For that reason, I hate to think of it as a departure as you will always have a place here as you need. From the bottom of our hearts, we love you, and always will love you, as the mother and kawaii yandere-chan and sister and friend, one of the kindest friends, that any person -- let alone a KH-Vids member -- could have. Thank you, truly, for everything. The future will be challenging and uncertain. But no, we will not need to just accept you with open arms after you return having conquered these obstacles. We will always accept you regardless.
I am aiming for 1080p. It is dated, but I am not sure if I can afford 4K in my current state, as nice as it is.

Dia duit! (I actually know only basic Irish and understand that not everyone there speaks it but wanted to use it once in my life and justify using the afternoon to learn a bit please do not murder me) I assure you that this place possesses the highest quality of nerds. Hand-pressed, steam-bathed, 100% organic GMO-free geekitude upon your platter, fed delicate Beluga caviar over only the oldest of teak wood. I am What?, gastronomer extraordinare and would gladly be one of the many staff guides if you have any questions. Please do not hesitate to ask. But I am sorry, you will not meet cool people at all. Everyone here is very hot. I mean, the furnace is broken. Perhaps you could fix it in your stay? I hope you enjoy your time. It will be sweltering. I also hope you enjoy Persona Q if you have a chance to grab it because as a fellow Persona fan I am lamenting my lack of funds at the moment.
Signed. But perhaps another alternative to Funimation. Signed. I would be willing to donate to the Official Amaury Optical Laser Surgery fund.

Are you sure that is not just fainting due to blood loss from a truck hitting you? Lord, we need to get you to a hospital quickly, but a day has almost passed!
Resist the pain. Remove your earthly tethers.
OH MY LORD
That was an absolutely brilliant read, wonderful job! It almost seems counterintuitive that horror would be as popular as it is today but an analysis of the psychological bases behind the why makes sense.
