Day 7 - I Don't Need No Medication....

My rant for today....microwaves.

Now, you'd think I would have nothing to say about them. However, REALLY??!?!?! What the hell!?!? When I place my food into the gullet of this thing and press a few buttons I EXPECT it to deliver my food hot and ready to eat. However, when does the thing EVER get it right??? With the exception of popcorn, the microwaves I have encountered only do a half-ass job of heating my food.

For example. Yesterday I placed a ham and cheese Hot Pocket inside. I pressed the allotted 60 seconds and waited. Once I retrieved my small delicious morsel I sat down to devour it. Only to find out, that one chunk was scalding hot and yet the section right next to it.....was still FROZEN. I mean....REALLY? How can the section RIGHT NEXT to it still be FROZEN! Needless to say, microwaves screwing up isn't in the directions so I had to place my food back into the microwave and wait some more before finally having a thawed product, and even then there were some spots that could have been considered somewhat chilly. WTF??

And cleaning. Don't get me started. Unless you have an older model that doesn't have one of those rotating trays, you are essentially.....fucked. Say you food explodes in the thing and so then you have to clean it out. Well you have to take out the tray, and try not to drop it, then you have to take a rag and wipe out the interior, well this proves to be a chore because sometimes food and such gets stuck to the CEILING of the thing. Yummy, I know. And after you go through ALL that, you still don't have your food. WTH???

Fin.
