Gordon Ramsay doesn’t care about your gender, race, or creed. All he cares about is that you can cook.

The contestant, Christine, is blind, and he lets her know exactly what he thinks of her dish.

gordon ramsay is not allowed to make me cry from not-laughter or not-insults

SPICY, WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS.

DID IT RAIN ON YOUR FACE

this is a perfect example of treating someone with a disability LIKE A PERSON

look y’all gone have enough of making me cry with no warning cuz of stuff on my dash

I remember watching an episode of Kitchen Nightmares where this Black woman ran a Jamaican restaurant. It came out that this woman had a lot on her plate that she felt she had to deal with all by herself. There was a lot riding on the success of the restaurant, and she didn’t have a support system. What surprised me was how he did not force her into this Strong Black Woman role. He made it clear that she needed people around her who could truly help her with the burdens she had instead of adding to them. It was obvious from that episode was that what she needed was someone who could show her the real potential of her restaurant and how to maintain that.

But I also love how he has no fucks to give for silver spoon motherfuckers who just opened a restaurant because they thought it would be cool and fun then proceed to act like nobody needs to know anything about food or business to have a successful restaurant.

Besides this now, my favorite Gordon Ramsey has heart moments was on Hell’s Kitchen, where the Lady who cooked at Waffle House, although she was eliminated, he was so impressed with her, he decided to help pay for formal cooking lessons for her. Because he was like, “You’re in here out cooking all these so called chefs, all you need is more training.”

I love it, they were trying to shit on this black woman because LOL ONLY WAFFLE HOUSE

Gordon Ramsey be knowing

The best best thing I like about Gordon Ramsey is that he’s CHANGED his stance on people over the years. When he first started his TV show he openly stated he thought women were not and could not be chefs. But he never let that bias stand in the way of fairly judging the food itself. First season of Hell’s Kitchen I remember a scene where he said he was surprised it was two women who made it to the finals, and that by far the women’s team was continuly out performing the men’s. After that season I think he ate his words of believing women couldn’t be chefs because for the next 5 season’s women beat out the competition and won.

I love the fact he’s telling her to listen to the knife and how it’s supposed to sound. He’s giving her critique based on her better senses and it makes me teary )’8

I went to Disney World yesterday for the first time since I was eight. Immediately I went to buy a Peter Pan cap. Pan has been my favorite Disney movie since I was two. After I found my cap and went on a few rides I went around looking for Peter. Once I found him I waited in line to get my picture, which probably looked odd seeing as I am sixteen years old and 5”8, standing in line next to a bunch of six year olds. Once I got up there, he saw my cap and said “Defending the park from Hook while I’m off duty?” I replied “yes, I hope I’m doing a good job!”
That was around the time he noticed the scars on my wrists. He kinda gave me a look in my eyes and said “you okay?” I told him, “well Peter, you’d know better than anyone how tough it is to grow up.” And he looked at me and whispered, “Neither of us are grown up yet. We might have gotten older over the years, but we haven’t forgotten what it’s like.”
Then he told me, “since we’re both from Neverland, and you’re my partner in crime, stand back to back with me, and cross your arms. We’ve got to do the signature pose!”
I know the guy who dresses up as Peter Pan for Disney doesn’t realize this, but all that he did for me in the five minutes I met him made me feel happier than I’ve felt in months. I felt like a child again, and feeling like a child is pretty great sometimes.
I’m not ready to grow up yet.

oh no im crying

i know this doesnt match my blog but whatever im choking up
