40 Of The Funniest Microwave Fails

Mainly to kill any insect eggs that may be in there. You don't want a beanbag full of weevils, do you?

SHUT UP.

How can you not use your microwave for that long?

We have kettles (at least my family does) but we rarely use them.

I think my grandmother had a kettle. Yeah not everyone in the U.S. has one.

We have an electric kettle and a couple of stovetop ones, and we use the electric one regularly. We didn't know until we visited family in England and experienced how fast it was for ourselves, and that is when we actually started considering buying one. Also, yes I knew it boiled water, but I pretty much thought of it as just a tea kettle and didn't really think about other possibilities like ramen until I actually had the thing in my kitchen. Basically I don't think there is like an active grudge against them or anything, it's more because for most people buying one is not worth it when they could just use the microwave or a stovetop kettle they already have, and for the remainder they just don't know how nice it is to have. There's definitely also another group that doesn't know what they are at all lol. Seems like a matter of just not being widespread enough here.

Or why not to cook real food on the stove..it's quite simple to make tasty noodles with fresh vegetables, meat, eggs.

Electric water jug? As an American, I've never heard anyone say that. We call it a kettle.

We do. We are lazy. Since and fill a lot..wait 7 mins...oh the hassle!😂

It's not common, for sure. We're not a tea-drinking country by and large like the UK is, so most houses instead have coffee pots. That being said, I do have an electric kettle and use it practically every day (because I am one of the uncommon tea drinkers in the US). :D

Americans don't have kettles because we're not big on tea. People prefer coffee. You can't make coffee from a kettle so we don't really have a need for one. However, most people are now opting for a Keurig machine which doubles as a coffee maker and an electric tea kettle.

We have "proper water cookers"...this pic was from a school, during an extracurricular activity. No, they are not going to have full-on hot kettles in schools with kids younger than 12 years old. This is not an "American" thing, it is a "young kids dont need to be around and using hot stove tops" thing.

I have to try it! 😉

That's gonna take a lot of fingers. Excuse me while I call some friends and pick up a twelve pack

I need one big enough for me to fit in. Imagine floating a bit befor you are stuck to the ceiling

I thought it created a black hole you could use to destroy the Combine with.

Lmao!

Really???
