    Yeah, it was already mentioned by @speed51133 , but yeah, metal utensils on non-stick drives me crazy.  Even if it's not on my pans!

    I was at my folks place last weekend and watched my mom scrape something on a pan, with a knife, while cooking.  I always say something, but it never makes a difference.

    If it’s her pan, why bother?  Just enjoy her company.  If it’s your pan?  Well, just make sure she doesn’t use your pans.  If she likes to cook at your house, buy an identical pan of hers so she will be more comfortable using it. That and she won’t be using your pans.

    People who think that everything cooked on the stove is ALWAYS to be cooked on high. Grilled cheese?  Nope - dark brown bread with firm, still cold cheese in the middle. Bacon? Burnt. Eggs - dry and overdone. Sauté garlic in butter? Crispy brown burnt garlic in a brown liquid. 
    ugh....

    A little off topic but people that post reviews on websites like allrecipes and change the entire recipe and proclaim they "improved it" without trying the original recipe first. Here is a great example by JILLYBEAN14, this "chef" made 9 modifications to the original recipe to "improve" it.

    I agree, you should always try it according to the recipe the first time.
