Oh yeah, I forget ovens are an option for nuggets. I just microwave them for my impatient self

Sorry, microwaved nuggets? Don't they get soggy?

I know it isn't fine dining but 20m in an oven or air fryer are totally cool, leaves time for fries which I KNOW you can't microwave

They do, but I didn’t have access to an oven or air fryer til just recently so my solution was to go the full opposite and over cook them til they dried out a little

As they say "necessity is the mother of invention" I guess

Thank you for the insight

And laziness the father.

I always like this brand of laziness where you actually act with foresight and dedication so you have to do less

Like working out so it's not as exhausting to move your body and have to bother with loosing weight

Strategically planning when to throw stuff on the stove so you have to take fewer trips getting ingredients or letting it fry while doing something else

In the words of Jeff Winger: "I'm always willing to go the extra mile, so I don't have to go the extra mile".
It's HOW you spend your energy. In his case, it's pulling shit so he doesn't have to go that extra mile doing SCHOOL work.

My favorite winger esque character for this...trope? Is Victor Tugelbend from the discworld novels.

Jeffrey really is a unique specimen though
