Cooking is an important part of daily life. At some point, everyone is going to have to cook something for themselves. It's hard and expensive to eat out every single day. Cooking is a skill that not everyone possesses, but arguably, it is one that most people can learn the basics of. There are so many articles and videos to learn from. So when this wife failed to do something insanely simple in the kitchen, she was called "pathetic" by her husband's mother. Not only did her husband not defend her, but he also agreed with his mother later on. This has caused serious turmoil between them, and now the husband is wondering if he is in the wrong for agreeing with his mother.

Is this a case of weaponized incompetence or is she really that bad at cooking? All of these questions and more are discussed in the comments of this post.
