We’re so cooked, y’all. Or at least… that chicken is.QUESTION"What is the worst way to perfectly cook a chicken? For example, could you place it a perfect distance from a nuclear bomb to cook it to temperature? Would the pressure of the deep ocean or maybe an impressive hydraulic press cook it like a pressure cooker? Uh. Lasers?" from Justice on SpotifyDo you have an absurd question?
