    I think it's about a minute fast.

    Nothing. It's attached to the kitchen set thing and arranged so the bottom of it is also the stove fan/light.

    YES. I've made it a game.

    Starting on my left with one, your number comes up, you go.

    My parents actually have a microwave with just a dial and no digital numberz. You can't avoid the OMGIMDONE ding but in return, it's just a single ding. None of this five beep trout that I have to deal with.

    I hate those digital microwaves. What a waste of time and effort.

    The people who hate the microwave beeping are the people who are always late because they cannot stand the sound of an alarm clock.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    My alarm clock plays super nintendo RPG songs, so that's definitely not why I am late!

    People who need to be woken up via alarm to be on time are living their lives the wrong way...

    Also, microwave dinners need to contain more food.

    Those two statements are completely unrelated.

    People who can stand the sound of their alarm clock need to get a new alarm clock.

    I almost always involve the sound of my alarm clock into one of those weird dreams between sleeping and wakefulness. Which is why I set a kabillion alarms.

    My microwave is none seconds off time.

    There's a cutting board, some tomatoes and a bunch of random stuff on top of it.

    Yes. I hate that beep.

    -It's pretty accurate, so not more than a minute or so off.
    -No.
    -No, I am not crazy.

    IT ISN'T CRAZY, IT IS A PREFERENCE. The beep is long. It's annoying. It's useless, because I'm not like, microwaving some popcorn for two minutes then going to do yoga while it's cooking. I'm standing in my kitchen waiting for the freaking popcorn.

    foa once let down her protective aura because she was bored and wanted to see what happened. All those who witnessed her insane beauty without the shield lost all desire to keep living once they realized they would never see anything that beautiful again for as long as they lived, and promptly died.
