Tyrez This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff Boulder, United States

I like what you've done with the place

Today, my stepbrother's attempt at making a snack resulted in the microwave catching on fire and the everlasting smell of burnt pizza rolls. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

How your step brother managed to do this intrigues me…

Get some fans and let it air out OP! At least your house didn't burn down!

You should smell burned popcorn - my son's gf did that I my microwave once. Heat a cup of water with some vinegar or lemon juice - it might take the smell out. That's if the microwave is still safe and able to be used.

OP, put a cup of vinegar diluted with a little bit of water in the microwave and set it for 5 minutes. The steam created by the vinegar solution will get rid of the smell. If the microwave is broken, I have no idea how to get rid of the smell in the air except to tell you to open up the windows

Leave windows open, use some fans, etc... hope the smells leaves soon. FYL.

Some people shouldn't be allowed in any kitchen anywhere

My microwave can't even heat up soup on the first try, how did he light yours on fire? Did he wrap them in aluminum foil first?

Poor guy must be so embarrassed.

He is probably just as upset at the loss of his pizza rolls. And he has to deal with the smell

All I can imagine is the scene from the Simpsons where Homer made cereal and it caught fire.

My husband did that the. day with hot pockets. Not the fire part, but the burning part. Open up all the windows in the house to air it out. If the microwave still works use distilled vinegar with a little bit of water and heat it up. The vinegar should deodorize the burnt pizza smell in it.

Welp reminds me of the time when I was ten that instead of putting a tortilla in the microwave for 20 seconds I put it in for 20 minutes....
