Anyway the reason I paid so much for my microwave was when I stayed at a friends house for a week (looked after his dogs while he was OS) I fell in love with his microwave. It has more features than a space shuttle but I really liked the sensor cooking. Hit start and the oven it self will work the rest out. And it did so perfectly every time. Also while it is an microwave oven it is also a convection oven. It will also roast. A whole chicken perfectly cooked with crispy skin and all under 15min. I thought it was well worth the money and have no regrets paying for it. My old microwave I took to work where some idiot tried to microwave a doughnut wrapped in aluminum foil in it. No prizes for guessing what happened next.

I guess some of us are just lucky that way. I buy the middle grade model and let the wife do the rest while I sit and watch a good game or a race. I can even get a good massage, and more if I push the right buttons.


SUPERMAXX YOUR LIFE.

My microwave is 1,000 watts. You need at least 1,000 watts to pop a bag of popcorn properly. If it is less than that you get unpopped kernels in the bag. If you try to microwave it longer to ensure all of the kernels are popped you end up burning the kernels that are popped. Isn't colonel an odd word? It is pronounced the same as kernel, but spelled completely differently. One time I was behind a couple at KFC. The man ordered a "colonial" chicken sandwich. He was so dumb he pronounced colonel "colonial". As if chicken sandwiches helped colonize people to later form the states. That's not even the dumbest part. After the man completely botched the pronunciation, his wife said, "I'll have the colonial chicken sandwich too". It was the cheapest item on the menu. I don't know what that has to do with anything, it's just a fact. I have a friend that is convinced KFC grows headless hybrid chickens in test tubes. He absolutely will not eat KFC chicken. He doesn't believe in the moon landing either. I have another friend that I went to the KFC buffet with. I noticed he wasn't eating any chicken. I said WTF? He said, "I don't eat chicken with bones in it". I said, "what do you think there is a farm somewhere with boneless chickens that look liked deflated basketballs?". He didn't know what to say. Some people just don't understand how the world works.

"(One) day when I was chillin' in Kentucky Fried Chicken
Just mindin' my business, eatin' food and finger lickin'
This dude walked in lookin' strange and kind of funny
Went up to the front with a menu and his money
He didn't walk straight, kind of side to side
He asked this old lady, "Yo, yo, um...is this Kentucky Fried?"
The lady said "Yeah", smiled and he smiled back
He gave a quarter and his order, small fries, Big Mac!
You be illin' "

The new ones have a big red 2 on them.

Edit: actually it looks like a small red 2:
