Yeah I was really disappointed when I saw that. Went to a show on their "farewell tour" last year, and they were really hyping up the fact it would be the last opportunity to see them live. Tickets were already stupid expensive. Not only was that a complete lie, but now they're playing at this ridiculous monolith? I feel slightly betrayed.

That's the point he's trying to make

This is one of the best improvements you can make to instant ramen. At work I keep sesame oil, furikake, hard/soft boiled eggs, and bonito flakes. Makes every lunch super easy and super delicious. Especially if you have access to boiling water. I keep an electric kettle at my desk for this reason.

I don't think I agree. Who watches Hells Kitchen and thinks, "man, doing extremely complex and fast paced cooking in a stressful environment with a chef who's verbally assaulting me at every moment seems very appealing, I should change my occupation!" Aside from people with a superiority complex and a 'Can't lose' mentality.

I honestly think it's more likely to drive people away from jobs in the food industry, especially if they're not already interested in cooking. That being said the dramatization factor is definitely there, and I would hope that most people at this stage would recognize that "reality" tv and competitions like this don't actually represent reality at all, at least in most circumstances.

It's actually the most reliable PC we have in terms of actual hardware lol.
