Man Air Fries Hot Dog For Two Hours To The Horror Of Everyone

Picture it: New Year's Day, 2021. You're hungover. You've been inside for nine and a half months. What are you going to do with your day? You look at your kitchen. You have an air fryer and a pack of hot dogs. The answer is clear:

Twitter user @KLobstar launched a horrifying Twitter thread on January 1st documenting his process of air-frying a hot dog at 300º for two hours. Over the course of roughly two dozen tweets, @KLobstar watched the hot dog slowly shrivel into nothingness a while his family left him (momentarily) to escape the overwhelming hot dog smell. "Wife not happy," he repeats.

The thread really gets terrifying when @KLobstar begins his second hour of cooking a now-black, chode-shaped turd.

Finally, after two hours, the hot dog emerged, looking like the least appetizing thing mankind has ever produced. And in case you're wondering, yes, it did taste terrible.

@KLobstar reported his wife remained mad at him until the hot dog smell vanished over six hours later. And for good measure, he tried rehydrating the thing to see if it got better (it did not).

What was to be gained from all this? Some retweets, some likes, yes. A play at being Twitter's first main character of 2020, sure. Compared to other main characters of 2021 so far, Hot Dog Guy took his moment in the sun, ruined everyone's day with it, and vanished.

But was it worth the smell? The awful taste? The strain placed on a young family? Absolutely. Post on, @KLobstar. Post on.
