Today, my mother-in-law gifted us with a new microwave. I told her it was too much and we didn't really need it. Her response, "I just want my grandkids to have food that tastes good for once." I'm a chef. FML

Just tell her, "I know what you mean, my husband said he had to eat the dog's food behind your back when he was growing up so he didn't starve."

You should just have an "accident" involving her head in the microwave. FML's acting weird again, oh boy..

I was thinking that. How could microwaved food taste better than a chef's food?

#33, you are the biggest idiot of all time. You spelt "grammAr" wrong. Do you know what the word "irony" means?

You should have jokingly said something along the lines of "So stop feeding them when they visit you then."

Maybe you should have just said, "Thank you" instead of being rude and ungrateful.

Well what do you expect from a mother in law? But yeah, FYL.

My mother in law is absolutely wonderful, considerate, and kind. Any woman who has children that marry will end up being mothers in law. Women don't turn into horrible people just because their children get married.

Damn, maybe Hot Pockets would be a wise choice. Um, CostCo has them cheap, and so does Walmart. Get the Family Size. Those are great. “There is one thing more exasperating than a spouse who can cook and won't, and that's a spouse who can't cook and will.”

I agree: as an aspiring chef, nothing I make in the microwave is nearly as good as what I make by hand. /Microwave's handy in a pinch, though.
