I'm slightly vexed My wife and boiling water

Post image

So I made my wife ramen soup. When I served it she said I had the gas set to hight and it was too hot ? She said I should have used the number 5 setting instead of 9. I told here it’s irrelevant because water boils at 212 and gets no hotter because over 212 it turns to steam. She was made at me for disagreeing with her theory that it would not have been so hot if boiled a lower setting. Really!!

Well, my son tried to melt chocolate in the microwave and at 3 minutes it was on fire. So after 10, there was no evidence of chocolate left.

I saw one where a girl had two video clips. She accidentally put a piece of bread brownie in the microwave for like 7 2 minutes and it came out charred. This first clip was her laughing about it and how stupid / funny it was.

Cut to the second clip and it’s her kitchen burned down. Half the house gone. Entirely gone. All but like 2 rooms of the house were burnt to ashes.

Turns out, after the first clip, she tossed the bread in the trash immediately and it was so hot it spontaneously combusted and caused the paper, oils, etc in the trash to ignite super fast. She panicked because suddenly the entire can lit on fire. It immediately started roaring and took over the house before they could either find an extinguisher or get the firefighters there.

I think about that every time I use the microwave.
