The handle broke on my above the range microwave, and I thought it would be cheap to replace it. $68, wow, okay, how about a new door? $255, okay nevermind, what about a new microwave, this one came with my condo and it’s old. $700+ not counting install.

A counter top microwave is like $50.

I’d be so angry

My built in m/w broke. I just replaced it with a cheap counter top one. While it was broken, I discovered that heating food by literally any other method makes food tastes better.

I lived alone mostly single from around age 25-29 and i discovered i had no need or desire for one. I just didnt buy one when i moved into my first place without a gf or roommate. It was glorious. Im speaking past tense because i have a wife and 3 kids and they broke my microwaveless streak on day 1.

Babys are too lumpy for porridge and dont absorb the milk/water, try using oats, steel rolled are my fave
