"It amazes me how someone with such a love for this game, Can't cook a fucking burger. Seriously, All you need to do is cut the onions and get that sorted, Put the lettuce on the buns AND COOK THE FUCKING MEAT JONESY!"

It was funny listening to Jamie get so into this game. He must have thoguht he was some Gordon Ramsey imposter as he raced around the kitche trying to do all three jobs by himself. Well sort of, I mean he's doing Alex's job for him. I'm just hiding here on my side doing what I'm told. It isn't really all that hard to do when you have a job, And can follow orders.

"What else do you expect me to do, I'm doing what you tell me." Alex mentioned quickly.

"It's not that fact that you are doing what I tell you, It's the fact that you are doing it FUCKING WRONG!" Jamie exclaimed, Almost as if this was some easy job to do.

"Why not have a go at Chris, he hasn't been doing anything at all so far."

"I'm keeping my mouth shut and cutting onions and lettuce and tomatos... And what ever that is." I replied.

"See Alex, He's doing his fucking job. Get over there and cook the meat, The thing you need for a burger."

Jamie was already getting tired... I don't know how, I mean we have been at this for what? Twenty minutes?

"And what if we don't cook the meat?" Alex stated, Rather smug may I add.

"You know what a burger is without the meat? NOT A FUCKING BURGER THAT'S FOR SURE SO START COOKING!"

Ok Jamie is getting angry now, And if you couldn't tell before... Who are you? Wait why am I talking to myself in the third person, In my head?

(Shit my characters have become self aware already)

That was weird.

"Look Alex just cut some lettuce and let me handle the me..."

"DON'T TAKE OVER HIS JOB HE NEEDS TO GROW UP AND FUCKING DO AS HE IS TOLD! YOU HAVE A FAMILY HOW DO YOU FUCKING COOK BURGERS FOR YOUR FAMILY DO YOU HAVE MEAT OR NOT!"

I couldn't help but laugh at Jamies outburst. We have played a lot of games on this channel and I don't recall him ever getting so worked up about something so trivial.

"Chris I can tell you are thinking something to yourself you smug bastard." Jamie said out of nowhere. I mean what the fuck did I do?

"I'm doing my job, I'm watching Alex fail, And I'm watching you take over like some Gordon Ramsey wannabe in a video game about cooking. Jamie you probably have the least amount of experience in a kitchen."

I turned to look at him and could see his face going red, His brow starting to sweat and jesus christ are you actually so nervous and tense you shat yourself? Wait no... That's me.

"I'm trying to do what the game is telling me to do, That involves chopping, Cooking, Serving and telling you dick heads what to fucking do."

Oh yeah no he's getting really frustrated now. I can tell and we are so close to the end. I watched as our characters on the screen seemed to sync up, With Alex running around chopping more produce, Jamie mannning the burgers. I was just sitting off to the side taking the plates to the conveyor belt. Letting it run towards the goal and earning us those gold stars at the end of the level.

"See this is a good team, This is how it works when everyone does their job and plays well." Jamie said, Seeming calm and organised. Almost serene.

"Chris watch this." Alex whispered to me.

I watched his character go over and grab Jamie's Meat. (Damn I can't reword that.) And start moving them over to his side. I couldn't help but chuckle and breathe in heavily, Waiting for Jamie to...

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING JONESY!"

At that point we both started laughing. Alex because he was being a dick, And I genuinely found it funny that he would get so into a video game that he actually thought he had power here.

As the timer ticked over, The end level screen popped up and showed us getting a two star for it. I was quite happy and I bet Alex was going to use that to his advantage but Jamie? Oh boy.

"Thank god that is over. I swear there were some moments you guys really pissed me off."

"No shit Jamie, I swear even the people in the other rooms heard you screaming at us about those damn Burgers." I replied with earnest, Making sure he knew how much of a dick he was acting in game.

"Seriously Jamie calm down and enjoy it for what it is, And it is actually pretty fun. I enjoyed it." Alex stated happily. A grin on his face maybe pointing towards the other end of the spectrum but sure. Whatever you say.

"Fuck you both that was frustrating." Jamie exasperated. He was so angry and worked up that I don't know if we should continue... Oh who am I kidding of course we are doing more. Gotta get all them views and Jamie's Outbursts are helping.

"Jamie why don't you read some comments and uh, Relax?" Alex questioned.

"I hate you both." Jamie stated defeatingly, Knowing he was outmatched here.

It was interesting to me, Seeing what it would be like in a kitchen with these two. Even if it was just in game, I know one thing for sure. I don't ever want to be in the same kitchen as these two.
