    Burning Microwaves

    Not sure quite how, but ive just managed to burn a hole through the inside of the door of my microwave.

    My flat now stinks of burning metal.

    1. Is it safe to eat the jacket potato ive just cooked? Or is it likely to be full of poisinous fumes?

    2. Do i need a new microwave?

    3. How the hell did that happen anyway?

    1). Not sure.

    2) Try microwaving an egg for ten minutes. If you didn't need a new microwave, you will now :D

    3) Search me :fart:

    Throw it out (or return it) - You dont want to be messing around with crap that throws off radiation, and might be leaking it out now its had a whole burned in it.

    Microwaves are evil things

    Binned it, went for a walk, got some food.

    Got back and the flat is smelling quite a bit better.


    @ Aaron - if the raidioactive waste doesnt turn me into a mutant, im sure the pizza ive just had from Ameens on the Bigg Market will :up:

    there could have been something metal in the potato? that shoots lightning bolts and burns whatever the bolt touches in the mircrowave.

    dont know if anyone has already suggested this..

    Did you stab the potato before microwaving it?

    Just asking because I've had one explode and blow the door on our microwave open.

    To be fair, it was an absolute BEAST of a spud.
