in class writing, just add water

Seeing things that say 'just add water' annoys me. Whenever you try and have something that you supposedly just have to 'add water' to, it never turns out to be the only thing. Often times, I'll be hungry and lazy and don't feel like doing anything, so something that you just have to add water to is a good choice. Now, it might not be a gourmet meal, but it satisfies my hunger and my laziness can cope with just adding water. If only that were the case. The manufacturers always leave out the other parts. The stirring the water in. The cooking. And on and on. There's always a catch. I don't want to cook or stir, if I felt like putting in that much time and effort I would use it to go make food that is actually palatable! No, 'just add water' is total b.s.

  1. Do you think your interpretation of the phrase 'just add water' can be applied to the movie? What the idea of it being totally b.s. reflected in the movie? I'm just wondering if you can make a connection because I really like your interpretation of the phrase.
