People should really familiarise themselves with their microwaves instruction manual because using a microwave isn't just putting something in the microwave and punching in some random amount of time

You need to use power levels with certain foods to avoid over cooking or under cooking them

And if your microwave has a re-heat setting use that set up properly

Instructions? Power levels? Nah, just keep chucking stuff in there and mashing 30s until something happens.

Same. Reading manuals and messing with whatever finicky-ass UX they have for adjusting power or whatever other gimmick setting sounds… well… I’ll save that kind of thinking for the rest of my life, where the downside, if I don’t do it, will be more than just cold food.

Don't know how to use the microwave? Jail.

Knowing how to use microwave, believe it or not: jail. Right away jail.
