None I studied for the SAT everyday. That was more important atm. I memorized how to cook chili.

Start taking the advice you were given before you ask for more.
ok then
You definitely researched very little on stoicism, which is the point.
There’s only so much studying that can be done for the SAT that’s actually productive. The summer before my senior year, I ended up studying around 2 hours a day a few days a week. I don’t think any more studying would have yielded commensurate returns. Partly because I aced the test, but also because there’s a limit to how much you’re likely to actually improve your scores on a general level. So, assuming you put in similar hours, that left you with A LOT of time leftover. What else did you do to improve yourself? Because honestly, improving your SAT score, by, say, 100-200 points hardly qualifies as self improvement to most people.
As for memorizing a chili recipe… congrats I guess. That should have taken all of one afternoon to do. And memorizing recipes is useless anyway, because google. Learning various cooking techniques, general flavor combinations, how to use heat, sugar, fat, bitterness, etc to manipulate taste, is what cooking is ACTUALLY about. Learning the concepts behind cooking is, I think, what people here would have liked to have seen out of you. Not memorizing one recipe that you could just google anyway.
Side note: beans do not belong in chili. That’s just wrong. Just ask all of Texas.
And your commentary on stoicism is hilariously uninformed. Yes, we can all still see it. Nice try with the edit though.

I STILL wanna know about this sect of Christianity that is opposed to stoicism but in favor of pre-marital sex.
I edited the thingy cause I didn’t know what I was talking about.
Improving sat score means good college which means higher chance to get a good job which would make me more attractive by being able to take care of myself as an adult at the time. I also practiced driving and just relaxed. Yep got my license btw.
This caught my attention. As someone who has eaten and made chili a few times, but obviously knows nothing about Texas cuisine having never been there, what would be the correct way to make chili? Do beans really not belong in there?
I’m genuinely curious, this is the first time I’ve read that.
My chili is good and people should eat their chili anyway they want.
It’s a point of contention among chili in the US. BBQ is similar. Some regions are pork, while Texas is primarily beef. Sauce is huge in some places, and HOW you make the sauce (specifically the base) is big, while some areas are dry rub.
Texas is notorious for no bean chili and beef BBQ.
Which means they are doing it right.

correct. It’s not hyperbole, it’s literally no beans in Texas chili recipes, just meat. I was going to bring up the regional bbq thing too, but pwnisher beat me to it.
it’s not. I saw the beans in it. By definition, that’s not ok. I’m surprised it doesn’t have chicken or turkey or some other nonsense in it.
for sure. they can put jalapenos on their all-meat chili. Cheese on their all meat chili. diced white onions on their all meat chili. People should be able to eat their bean-less chili any way they want, I’m glad we agree completely on that point.

LOL the meat is all turkey.
lol, looks like i’ve been doing it wrong then. i’ll have to make up for that one of these days
as a side fun fact: here in italy bbq is pretty much always done with more than one type of meat. we always do beef, pork, and chicken together when doing bbq’s
Did italians invent sub sandwiches?
then you didn’t even learn to make chili after all. The ONE THING we thought you learned. And you didn’t even do that right.
Sigh.
Lol, even I know that chili is made with beef
Same here. My mom doesn’t let me cook beef in the house because it’s unhealthy.
well, your mom doesn’t know much about nutrition then, if she believes that.
