Today, my boyfriend and I were preparing for the arrival of Hurricane Sandy. I tasked him with going out to buy emergency groceries in case we lose power. He returned with dozens of microwave cup noodles. We're going to starve. FML

OP here! My boyfriend bought regular cup noodles, but our building uses electricity for hot water. We ended up buying one of those hot plates, which was a good investment! Although his comment was really uncalled for, speaking respectfully to #1, I think that everyone has their own issues to deal with. We use this site for each others entertainment and to tell others general issues we have as people. Similarly to how you MIGHT post about getting stuck at home from, what maybe many New Yorkers consider, a little amount of snow and saying FML, I am doing the same about about a, what you consider, little category 1 storm. I hope your mood turns around because taking it out on someone you don't know over the internet will only cause a lot of psychological damage to you and potentially someone who is not self-actualized or confident. The area we live in is currently in danger of a power outage, but I think we're ready for it! Thank you everyone for all their warm prayers and so much more! :)

A hurricane is a hurricane no matter where it is. People have died already. Plus living in a hurricane prone are isn't something to brag about. Shut up.

My first thought was Why does everyone assume you have a gas stove? As for survival food goes, I would have hoped that most people (clearly not the case here) would think to get things that don't require cooking such as peanut butter or canned foods. When the zombie apocalypse comes I'll be the guy raiding the canned vegetables while the rest of you are looting the meat department.

well, maybe you can put water from the flooded streets and use the torn up remains of your home to build a fire and boil it! :D FTW

To pandalover69; It's shit people like you that bash other states and make Texas look bad. So please shut the **** up. Everyone everywhere experiences differents kinds of weather all ranging from mild to extremely severe. Just because Texas tends to suck the moisture out of most hurricanes we get doesn't mean that they are any easier to endure or less real for that matter to others. Love, muffin_boo

Where have you read that carbs give you a slow release of energy...? That's wrong.

Complex carbs will give you lasting energy,not slow energy. Noodles will give you more complex carbs,so you will have more energy longer.

You guys in the states seriously need to sit down with the dude(s) in charge of naming your hurricanes and have a serious conversation with him. Or get him a girlfriend.

The hurricanes are AFAIK named after man-woman-man-woman... one by one.
