Today, my daughter tried to make pasta by putting a pot on the stove, pouring the noodles in without adding water, and turning on the stove. Then she asked me, "How come these aren’t getting soft like when you make them?" She’s 19. FML

Today, I put leftovers in the microwave, pressed two minutes, and walked away. I came back to discover I'd started the kitchen timer instead. I'd spent two minutes waiting for food that had never even started warming up. FML

I'm guessing she's old enough to use a microwave, and old enough to know something that simple, hence the OP's complaint.

Did she remember to put water in the bowl?

It's a liable question...cooking on your own does have those questions then it depends how tender she wants her noodles...

In some microwaves you have to cook them differently. In mine I do it 1:45 but at my grandmas its 2:00 because mine cooks better than hers.

I have two different microwaves and the older one can do in 10 seconds what the newer will do in 1 minute... So I guess it would depend on the power of your microwave, even though they're marketed as "2-minute".

You should have said 1 minute. She'd never know what hit her.

you should get her tested for mental retardation. it's not diagnosed as much as it should be.
