Perfect Cup of Ramen

`inennui:iconinennui: reports, December 25, 2004
Before we begin I guess it is pertinent to say...... well. Why the hell did anyone let this guy become an admin anyway? Look at his professional demeanor, his stringent abuse of posting news! Tight pants!

Well troops. It's
exactly that.
And my mean cup of ramen.

Mean Cup of Ramen (chicken flavor preferable, will not work with lime shrimp)

1. Bring two cups water to boil
2. Open package, if your frail protein starved arms are too weak; use your teeth
3. Dump everything in the water



4. If a silver package is floating in the boiling mass of pain... you lose! Go to jail without collecting 200$
5. Fish out package
6. Open package, and dump dehydrated piss powder
7. Grind coarse sea salts on noodles directly.
8. Penetrate one half sliced red peppers into mix after one minute
9. "(It was) like a large exotic mushroom in the fork of a tree, a little pleasure dome if ever I've seen one, where Alph the sacred river ran down to a tideless sea. No, not tideless. Her tides were convulsive, an ebb and flow that could take you very far, far back, before hurling you out, wildly and triumphantly, on a ribbed and windswept beach without end." Source Material
9. Agitate five shakes of crushed red peppers into mix.
10. Eat when done cooking
11. Swallow periodically

You see, without this valuable knowledge I'd never be an admin. It's about timing, communication, and a good sense of direction. Anyway...

Happy Birthday!
