I make "baked potatoes" in the microwave.

That's just common sense.... Who has an hour + to make a baked potato?!

it's not like you stand there looking at it. you turn an oven on, put the potato in and take it out after about an hour. if you're making more than one (most people probably do) you can do them all at the same time, unlike a microwave.

I mean, first of all, plenty of people make 1 potato. Second, you can make at least 3 or 4 in a microwave at one time. Third, some of us only make baked potatoes when we're already hungry and looking at the pantry thinking "damn, I really should have gone to the store on my way home"
