Please post your most pathetic, bachelor-pad-eques recipes here. Try to come up with an over-the-top elegant name for your concoction. Bonus points if it's a food you LOVE to eat but which you would never reasonably expect anyone else to touch.

Vermicelli With Raw Alfredo Sauce
Cook some angel hair pasta -- you can handle that much, can't you? Try to pay attention to it so that it doesn't clump together or get entirely soggy, but if something more interesting than cooking comes your way (like, say, fooling around wtih your bass) then don't worry about it, life is forgiving.
When the pasta is ready (or possibly a few minutes after that) drain it and add several pats of butter. Add a few shakes of "Italian Seasonings" and stir. Then add sprinkle cheese -- you know, Kraft parmesan cheese. Maybe there will be some romano in it; everybody loves romano. If you have crushed spicy pepper stuff, sprinkle some of that on too.
Eat. Once you can't taste the sprinkle cheese any more, sprinkle on another heap of it. Read a magazine while you eat it so you're less aware of what you're putting into your mouth -- hey, there's the new Atlantic Monthly!
Yum.

Take one large can of baked beans. Open can, ensuring lid is fully removed. Serve with spoon. For best results use a teaspoon as a larger spoon may not be suitable for scraping bottom of can.

Unwrap hunk of mozzarella cheese. Open jar of tomato sauce. Find the appropriate angle for ripping cheese so that the cheese-striation allows for strips of cheese. Because you wouldn't possibly want to dirty utensils. Dip cheese in tomato sauce (out of jar, naturally). Eat.
Mozzarella and mayo sandwich
Peer in fridge. Extract Mozzarella cheese and bread. Tear off some mozzarella and arrange on bread. Puzzle over other possible ingredients. Despair at lack of pickles, then notice mayonnaise. Lament the need of silverware, retrieve clean knife. Spread mayo on bread, put sandwich together. Eat.
Energy Bar with peanut butter
Unwrap energy bar. Taste. Make distorted annoyed face. Get peanut butter out of fridge. Sigh and find a clean knife. Spread thick layer of peanut butter on energy bar. Taste. Spread more peanut butter on, creating a very thick, even layer. Eat.
It scares me that I can relate to the Baked Beans post.

Boil water. No sweat so far, right? While the water's boiling, instead of staring at it like a dumbass, dice (aka "cut into little pieces") some green onions and mushrooms. When the water has come to a boil, add the veggies, the ramen noodles, and accompanying spice pack (preferably "spicy chicken, bitch!"). Listen to one Ramones song from beginning to end, then remove the pot of goodies from the heat. Eat the noodles & veggies with chopsticks, slurp (eventually chug) the broth. Booyah, you be eatin' noodleses Tampopo style, biyotch.

Grab a big ol' wad of ground beef. Squish into a vaguely burger like shape. If you drop it on the ground, don't worry, we call that "cajun style". Throw it in a hotter-than-fuck skillet. Flip it over after awhile, I dunno when man, just figure it out for yourself. Squish down on it with a spatula every once in awhile; when the juices coming out are clear and not pink, your burger be done. Slap that mofo on two pieces of bread (NO BUNS) with a slice of cheese (or cheese-food-product) and slother mayonnaise all over it. Shove into your face. Enjoy!

Combine 1 cup of rice with one can of Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup and one Campbell's Soup can of water. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer until rice is fully cooked. (If crispiness is desired, bake in oven at 350 for 10 minutes after rice is cooked.)
I invented this dish when I was 13.
