Well this is spawned off of the AOL CD topic because I liked so of the things people said to do with microwaves. We just bought a new microwave and I'm trying to figure out stuff to do with the old one...by the way, what happends with the smoking candle?
 
I've always wanted to tape the buttons that lets you turn it on down, and turn it on while the door was open

..probably a horribly BAD idea though
 
I heard that if you leave a potato in the microwave it will catch on fire. Not something I would do though...
 
yea ive always wonderd what would happend if u smash a hole in the door and turn it on. will it heat up the hole room or just cook u from inside out?
 
Great...now if you guys hear about some college student in California getting cooked from the inside out...well...you'll know that you shouldn't try it
 
you could.... aim the opening at like... a chicken a few feet away, start the microwave, and run away, closing your door(not locking it) and see if anything happens to the chicken when you get back? setting timer at like a minute...

however, i did hear that (at least with the door closed) you can put your face right up to the window and nothing will happen. lmao my astrophysics professor said he did it all the time...



edit: on second thought... probably shouldn't take any of my suggestions. this is how people win darwin awards lmao
 
Quick! someone put an old motherboard into one! I wonder what would happen anyways?? if you decide to do this, get a video camera!!!
 
just for fun....try doing that thing where you microwave a cup of water till it should boil...but it dosn't....... .....to do this you need to get some really pure filtered water.

Then when you take it out and drop something in it, it will basicly explode out of the cup. Because it just starts boiling all it once.

Just don't get burnt.


I'm going to try thinking of other things to do....
 
I used to put those small chip bags(The ones that only have one serving in them) in there for 15 seconds and they shrink and its all cool. If you smell them they smell like the chips. But if you wanna do something cool put a potato in there for like an hour.
 
holy shit... i did that in my dorm at the university of nebraska... hahahaha... the microwaved cd... omfg how could i forget... it was sooooo cool... we actually figured a certain timing that works best, ie how long to put it in there so it looks coolest when you take it out. damn... i forgot all about that omg...


edit: the grape one sounds awesome... down near the bottom, top of the e-mail section
 
Try putting a lightbulb or a CD in it (make sure the CD has the label facing down). Looks pretty cool.
 
The candle actually produces plasmoids: Balls of plasma that roll around inside the microwave.

The lightbulb sometimes does something similar.
 
so.. uh um.. how many microwaves have you guys gone through at home already??? :eek:
 
Three, and change your signature before I have to punch you. :)
 
Heh, if he punched you I'd have to say that he'd duffed you over...

*Badam Ching!*

what has she got to do with microwaves? you people always manage to turn every forum thread into a discussion about women.
 
lol, nah she would really badly have to get on my nerves, and it would have to be one bloody massive microwave.!
 
yogart in a microwave is quite funny (leave the top on).

ohhhhhh, cool, must do that..
 
Marshmallows in the microwave are really cool, they don't explode, they just grow to about 20x their normal size... so I suggest you just put a small one in... on a plate too, it does get a bit sticky when it comes out.
 
After frying all my tinfoil and candles, I tried putting cold food in my microwave.
After a few minutes, it was heated and entirely edible!
Who knew a microwave could do such things?
:D

Okay, I found the funniest thing related to this. It was a warning label on a microwave that reads:

"WARNING: Do Not Use to Dry Household Pets."

Einstein once said, "The one thing that is infinite is human stupidity." Now I know why :LOL:

Hmm... I wonder what happens if you put
1)Gasoline
2)Matches
3)Dynomite
4)Munro

1. Some fire, maybe destroying the microwave.
2. The matches starts burning.
3. Some kinda explosion, maybe wrecking a big part of your kitchen.
4. A nuclear explosion of astronomic proportions, destroying our solar system in an instant.
