I didn’t downvote it, but I’m not sure I understand the comment. The only plausible reason why being bad at sharing + someone else cooking = unhappiness seems to be that Alicorn herself enjoys cooking, and so wouldn’t want to share cooking space and food storage with someone else who cooks. But this is a very odd statement, because generally people enjoy spending time with others who share their interests. Also, I had to spend a couple minutes coming up with that explanation, the first draft of this comment just said I had no plausible explanation.
I hate sharing a kitchen; the more I have to do it, the less I know where all my stuff is and the less I can expect to find it available for my use whenever I like. (A lot of my skills turn off when there is another human in the room with me, so working around another person isn’t usually an option). I guess my comment wasn’t right for a public setting; I was mostly addressing Qiaochu, who knows about my kitchen thing and is planning to move in with me and Mike later this year.
Could some of the downvoters please explain what they found wrong with this comment?
