Well, now. I have to say, I am shocked and appalled at what you have done. I'm sorry, but fuck this recipe. I really wanted some fried rice, only to come to find out that I don't have half the fucking bull-shit you say I have to have to MAKE IT. You all suck, and this freakin' recipe sounds horrible anyways. THE GAME. SUCK IT. FUCK YOU. (Ps. I made an account for the sole purpose of leaving you this comment. TROLL FTW)
