Does your partner or housemate leave microwave explosion surprises for you?

Yesterday
Partner: oh the hot pocket seemed a little overcooked in the microwave, it should probably be around 3 mins instead of 4 like the box says. It exploded a bit.
Me: oh ok that happens sometimes

Today
*I go to make hot pocket*
Microwave is a freakin' bio hazard. I shudder to think that the hotpocket I ate yesterday was cooked in it because some of that rancid smelling pooled grease was probably from bacon and definitely NOT from a hotpocket.

You'd think "it exploded in the microwave" would warrant, oh I don't know, at least a wipe down?
THIS IS WHY I don't like even being around you anymore.
THIS IS WHY we didn't have a microwave for the past 8 years.

WHY OH WHY do I expect too much?!

You need only cook it for 2 minutes (1 minute 50 seconds even). Also try covering it with a paper towel. And try fantastic. It cuts the grease and absorbs odor that microwaves keep.

@Spoiledbrat lol Low Watts - but yeah, I've got XX chromosomes - I know how to papertowel 😆
Well it should never explode. You could rotate it half way. That might help. I always use a saucer and paper towel over the top. (I actually don't eat them but my son used to).@Starcrossed
