I learned this morning that if you microwave frozen pancakes for 2 minutes you'll have to throw the plastic plate out

What's the pancakes to do with this? Don't microwave plastic, just don't. :/

Please don’t microwave plastic

[-] PeachMan@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

I know it's repetitive, but DON'T MICROWAVE PLASTIC.

If your frozen food comes in plastic containers, please remove it before microwaving. We've always known that microwaving plastic is bad, but there are some very concerning recent studies and we're learning more about how bad it really is.

Plastic plates? Like toy plates for children? You're not supposed to actually uses these.

Also don't microwave boiled eggs. Learned the lesson the hard way. May be cut them in half and then microwave to avoid the eggsplotion 😀

Why would you boil them before microwaving them?

A small slice of pizza takes 15 seconds, not 15 minutes.

Even PP is not safe. And squishy platic bottles too

why the downvoting? am i off topic or would y'all like me to not post here again?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 7 points 10 months ago

Comments say they didn't get the joke.

But it's also not the kind of post this community is meant for. It was pretty funny tho.

This might be a bit better for somewhere like TIFU@lemmy.world because it's an anecdote. Also, I think TIFU communities are kinda dead right now so they could use your post there. If it makes you feel better, I gave you an updoot.

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
