Many people are like that lol. Three of my friends can't cook at all. They don't even understand that you need to heat the oil first before dropping stuff in.
You don´t need to. Depends on the food. When I make fishsticks, I put in the oild, put in fishsticks, turn on the stove. Makes no difference. Of course, you wouldn´t do it with a steak, omg.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
