I got one of those fancy new microwaves that does 1 minute when you hit 1, 2 minutes when you hit 2, etc. I believe it has saved me about seven octillion eons of cumulative time I would have otherwise spent typing in numbers.
My parents have a microwave like that. It drives me nuts because it’s basically a better model of my old microwave. Controls look the same, but function completely differently.
I have one of those and it’s cost me who knows how much time and effort. The only times I ever really use are 15 seconds (for melting butter), 50 seconds (for water for baking bread; 1 minute is too hot), and 1:45 for coffee (again, 2 minutes is too hot). I can count the number of times I’ve actually used the “push 1 for 1 minute” feature on one hand, and instead I have to press an additional “timer” button for absolutely no reason Every. Single. Time. I want to microwave something.
Mine does that but only the 1-6 buttons. And like… if I’m being honest microwaving something for longer than 6 minutes is probably less than 1% of my total microwave usage, but it feels like the greatest injustice ever experienced by anybody when I have to press cook time then 8 0 0 to get my microwave to run for 8 minutes
It seems pretty clear to me that this is a parody of conservative memes. I suppose many of the downvotes are from people who take it literally or who aren’t sure.
I don’t know why, but it seems many in this community default to downvoting what they don’t understand instead of ignoring. This isn’t even just for political memes, same thing happened when I posted a bad apple joke.
