My extended family and I argue about this all the time, lol. When I told my 30-second-button family members that I enter time AND power level they lost their minds!

25 years ago my elementary school teacher told us that people were so busy these days, that they will type :11 in the microwave instead of :10, and I have done it ever since.


My mind is blown.


NP. Mine too, because I’m just like…how long is it taking you mf-ers to find the 3 and the 0 on the keypad?

Why don’t people just input the desired time so they don’t have to stand there and babysit the microwave?

The microwave in our rental has a dial instead of numbered keypad. It takes a few extra steps. Hitting the 30 sec button a few times works better for me.
