LIS: Hey, I'm hungry. Can you make up more of that rice pilaf you made last night?
IAN: I don't want to deal with food, why don't you make it?
LIS: I don't know how.
IAN: It's from a box.
LIS: You do it, I don't know how.
IAN: You boil water and then put the contents of the box in it.
LIS: I'm feeling dizzy.
IAN: Which step are you having problems with?
LIS: But there was butter or something in it, too.
IAN: *sigh*
LIS comes into the room where IAN is, sits on her chair, and goes into a vertical variation of the fetal position.
IAN: Um. Fine. You know, they had to come up with new words stronger than "pathetic" for you. . .
LIS: Want me to get you a thesaurus?

Yes, I walked all the way into the kitchen, got a box of rice pilaf, put water in a pot, boiled the water, put the contents of the box, and, yes, a pat of butter, into the water, and turned the timer on.

You have to understand: Lis is perfectly capable of doing this sort of thing for herself. She just wants me to feel useful.

That's why they put corks in wine.
