Every microwave has a popcorn button, yet every microwave popcorn bag tells you not to use it.

I watched a video on this. old ass microwaves used to be a luxury product with high quality sensors and microwave emitters and shit, and the popcorn button actually worked. when microwaves became a cheap shit trash appliance the button stuck around even though it just burnt your food.

So you’re gonna be a little bitch and cry online because you’re a little who can’t decide if you should be the bag’s little bitch and do what it says or the microwave’s little bitch and do what it says?

over the oven vent/microwave in 3 of my houses. The button work spot on perfectly at all 3. It literally beeps when the popping slows to 2 seconds between pops.
Just stand there and see if your machine is quality like that. If poppoing stops and it doensn't stop too. Pull it out, duh.

I'd love to. Specifically, baby varieties. I love them tiny little shits.
But back to bags of popping kernels, it really is quite simple to pop them on the hob. Been doing it since before I aged into the double digits. If a literal child can do it easily, I see no reason why a grown ass man can't do the same. Unless, of course, he's mentally deficient.

some microwaves have a steam sensor when you press the popcorn button it cooks on high until it senses steam then starts a count down that most of the time ends before the popcorn burns.

some microwaves just run for 5 minutes when you press the popcorn button.

either way don't walk away while it's cooking, listen and when the popping is down to about once every 5 or 10 seconds turn it off.

If you try and wait till nothing is popping for 5 seconds then you’ve already way overcooked your popcorn.

Not all popcorn bags are the same size, not all microwaves have the same power, not all microwaves have an adjustable popcorn setting.
The bag assumes the worst case scenario that, the microwave is too powerful for the small amount of popcorn in the bag, and you cannot adjust the power.
Most microwaves these days should have more than one setting when you press the popcorn button that can cook any bag just fine, but it's not really worth it at that point, if you're pressing multiple buttons, just press 2 minutes and it will also cook fine.

I thought that was a picture of a Klondike bar on the left, and then I started thinking, is there a Klondike button on the microwave. A button that cooks a Klondike bar just right to where the vanilla ice cream was super creamy, and the chocolate was a bit soft but still some crunch. Pic unrelated.

Old ass microwaves emitters that emit microwaves and shit through it. Well, not this one. This one’s more like the size of a microwave and has an ass in it too. It’s called the ass microwave, and is the new invention of an Australian professor who’s determined to cure a long-standing problem: how to stop people from farting while they’re eating their takeout dinner in a microwave. Professor Shreg Unduncanuncuckable of Australnia’s REEMIT University explains that when you’re in the kitchen eating your dinner, a fart sounds, and your food smells like shit, and when you fart again, your food smells like more shit and you may not like it. Well, not him. He wants to figure out how to keep your food from farting in your face and how to prevent your food from farting at all. He says that for a long time people have been using ass microwave to stop cats from peeing in their apartments. But when he realized how he could use this device in a microwave, he decided to start making butt mics for people. They are also shaped like an ass, so people will be comfortable using them too. Yes, you just stick your food into your ass microwave and you don’t have to fart. But when you take the food out, it’ll be like you just cooked it yourself. So don’t worry about getting hungry again. You’re free to fart whenever you want because that is your right as a human being, to fart whenever you want.

And if you just fart, that’s not a fart, it’s called farting and you’ll get shit on your ass. Well actually I watched a better video on this. It was about a newer version of this same luxury product with even higher quality sensors that can detect how badly everyone in the office wiped. When microwaves became a cheap shit trash appliance the button stuck around even though it just burnt your food, but now it just burns your ass and your whole house smells like burnt ass for free but you end up paying the price when the toilet juggling fart bouncing cockroaches move into your house. Damn what a little bitch you are. microwave popcorn sucks anyway. just get a popcorn maker and a bulk bave emitters and shit, Source: your ass that you will eat more and more of and shit and fart from.
“We did a whole study on this. They got really upset that we gave the people an ass. They took the microwaves apart and saw it and went, ‘Oh, no, this will make us look bad.'” —The ass-mouthed man who makes better microwaves.

Fucker that model was from 1997, not the 60's. It's not 7000 USD today. Just a quick google search shows that the cheaper microwaves hovered around 100 USD which translates to around 180 now, and the most expensive ones translate to 360 USD now.

They use flat or curved pieces of metal to brown microwavable pastries and things. A spoon will just get super fucking hot the microwave, as will a flat piece of metal. Something with a lot of wrinkles, enjoy your energy arcing everywhere. I don't understand the science, just the hilarity. College students have used microwaves for all sorts of non-food stuff.
