There are some areas in life where I'm like that, in that I prefer to just be given a quick checksheet or be walked through something (cooking)...and other situations where I'd prefer to read up on things myself (coding). Amusing, since cooking is essentially coding with food instead of electrons...but there you go. I know coding. Cooking - ebbeh. If it doesn't have simple-stovetop or microwave directions, I'm not interested.
