Once more, with feeling...

I'm not saying it's not more rewarding, better quality, etc.

But it's not easier than just buying a damn jar of pickles when you're at the store.

I make them and buy them, I garden my own cucumbers specifically to make them. I've made quick ones, slow ones, garlic ones, spicy ones...it's not hard...

...but I'm not going to pretend it's faster or easier than buying a jar from the fucking supermarket.

Because it's not.

Jeez dude

All of the other things require so much more effort and time for similar results.

Pickles take not much time and effort and are insanely better and less expensive than picking up a jar at the store.

I never claimed it’s faster or easier, I’m just saying it doesn’t take anywhere near as much time or effort to make infinitely better pickles than to make bread, shave using a safety razor, MAKING FURNITURE?! etc.

I don’t know why you’re so defensive, it’s just… I love good pickles, and they’re easy to make. It’s not in the same world as the other stuff ya listed.
