To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I was watching "Worst Chef" as a parody of "Top Chef," and in that regard, I thought it was hysterical. Also, I found it oddly reassuring about my own mediocrity in the kitchen.

which is why most people will watch it, I think.

I just started watching it so I'm about 10 minutes in. I'm having trouble judging how sincerely bad these people are - I mean, who was really doing their best on the first challenge v. who knows they were making a (hot) mess? I think this show might work better if the whole thing was sprung on them more like WNTW rather than something they stood in line and auditioned for.

I'd like to note that this makes me feel somwhat iffy about myself.

Perhaps. But on the whole, this is kinder. I think a good many of them are sincere in wanting to cook better, which may be the show's only saving grace. Also, I'm OK with chef Ann, but the other guy bugs. A lot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

back in New York.
Thank you Jesus. That LA shit was not working. And I think that it resulted in a much weaker season than previously (RaMon was robbed!)
