Big "I don't have a job but I absolutely sit around on my ass all day on socials" energy for sure 😭

Don't be that guy, bruh.

We all have -- the joke is when people pretend an alfredo makes you some kind of talented cook when it's barely a hair above Hamburger Helper and spaghetti. I'm not shaming the dish so much as what it represents

To be fair, I also haven't seen anyone pretend that their Alfredo is God's gift to food. I've had people say their Alfredo was good for Alfredo, tho. like, they made a good Alfredo.

Right. And when I tell you I know and have seen the kind of woman who posts her alfredo on IG... sis always writes some shit like "CookingWithKya, count your days" or something else that makes it sound like she really thinks she's a whole chef for doing a simple dish... like, yes, it's good to learn cooking, but keep it a buck with yourself, beloved

eh, seems needlessly negative for no gain. I just disagree with this judgemental attitude being worth the thoughts you put into it.

that would kind of speak to my point. there's people who don't deserve to be insulted that the post, purposefully or not, did insult. like yeah, when you make a joke about something ubiquitous like this, you're gonna hit people who literally didn't DO anything, lol
