Today, while I was in the shower, my 4 year-old son wondered what would happen if he put 6 eggs in the microwave. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my 5-year-old son put my car keys in the microwave thinking that they would 'warm up' my car. FML
Today, one of the kids I was babysitting tried to hard boil eggs using the microwave. You cannot hard boil eggs using the microwave. It makes a mess. This we have learned. FML
Today, after boiling eggs my whole life, I wanted to try a packaged hard-boiled egg for the first time. I'd never had a cold egg before, so I thought it would be a good idea to warm it up. Now, I'm cleaning out a billion pieces of egg shrapnel in the microwave. FML
Today, I was sitting on the couch watching TV when I felt something crack on my head. My 6 year-old son had just smashed an egg into my hair. When I asked why, he said, "Mom does it for TikTok." This is how I found out that my wife has been "pranking" him for likes, and thinks it's hilarious. FML
Today, I was waiting for the pan to heat up so I could make myself scrambled eggs. Just then, my mom runs up to me, cracks an egg open on my head, and runs away laughing. I only had one other egg. FML
Today, my eight-year-old microwaved our thermometer to see if the temperature would change. FML
Today, my 8-year-old son microwaved his pet hamster. FML
Today, my shower is being renovated so I washed my hair in the kitchen sink. I put my two year-old son on the counter next to me so I could keep him close. As I was rinsing out my hair, my son started playing with the light switches. He flicked the garbage disposal by accident. FML
Today, my 7-year-old son proudly announced that he had laid an egg during the night. I checked. He'd simply shat the bed. FML
Today, I found out you really can burn down a kitchen by boiling an egg. FML

Sounds like a great opportunity to teach him to clean a microwave.

Why six? Still it's a simple point of somehow it cooks from the inside out your name is no longer a question

They don't cook from the inside out- that is a common misconception. The water within the egg heats and expands, and as the holes in the shell (and membrane, once it solidifies) are not large enough to vent the steam quickly enough, the pressure reaches the point that the egg ruptures. Basic science. The fact that people honestly believe that microwaves cook things from the inside out is very alarming.

Anyone whose bitten into food with a warm outside and cold inside would know that. Trolling level microwave

Talk out the scientific process with him. As well as science safety! But don't crush his curiosity. Test me many children now a days lack it.
