Every time I try to cook something new, I always fail. Quesadilla? Burnt it. Omelet? Spilled it everywhere. Rice? Overflowed. I am truly the best chef.
Microwaves make for the best stories though. When I was little, I think around 4 years old, my dad decided to teach me why its bad to place metal in a microwave. See dad was a fan of showing and telling, as he felt to a small child just telling them not to do something would be ignored or they would do the opposite. To be fair, he's pretty right on that, and all the visual lessons he taught I remember now 30 years later. But he got ahold of a very old cheap microwave for a couple dollars. Plugged it in outside (we had some outlets outside the house for extension cords and stuff), placed a fork in it, turned it on and pulled us about halfway across the yard to watch. It was quite the light show. It sparked and made a bunch of terrible sounds and then the microwave tried to catch on fire and smoke before it just tripped the breaker. Which dad had actually counted on (the outside wiring was designed that way and there was no risk to us or the house, I assure you). But it was a hell of a good lesson and I made sure to always check I never had any metal, even aluminum foil, in a microwave even by accident. I told all my friends growing up to, and they remembered cause its quite a story. Parenting done right man. And this story brought to you by microwaves.
I had a dream last Monday night that I was trying to microwave a bowl of Ramen, but forgot the water. I also BURNT THE SH*T OUT OF IT! Luckily, it was just a dream.
You've done the same thing as Dolan? Don't feel bad. A lot of people f**k up Ramen and Easy-Mac that way. Or at least they have before. You know what I mean.
Eh, it's not really a "cooking" story but, while I was 6 I LOVED Rice Krispies. So one day, my dad decided to treat me and sprinkled white powder over my cereal. It tasted super good. My dad told me "Now this is very bad for you so don't do this too much." I don't know what that white powder was so I didn't try to do it again. But 2 weeks later, I wanted that sweet cereal again, but I didn't want to bother Dad. I searched through the kitchen and then I remembered that salt was white and powdery. I took the salt shaker and dumped salt ALL over the cereal. I started eating it but then I started to tear up. That's when my parent's came in I told them what happened. My mom and dad both started to laugh and got me some water. They explained to me that it was sugar that Dad used and gave me a (longer than necessary) explanation on the differences between salt and sugar. To this day, I still look back and think "Omg I was so stupid!"
And yet, I still passed all my math test. :P But in all seriousness, my family has a history of diabetes so we rarely used sugar. We did use a lot of salt though. Add that to the fact that I was(am) autistic so I didn't understand that just because they look the same, doesn't mean they are the same. Hm, maybe that's why I enjoyed math more than English. .....Eh, I was still pretty stupid.
A few years ago I was making cookies with my aunt on new years eve. Appaerantly she mistook wax paper for parchment paper, and five minutes after they went in we had a firey explosion and our oven was burnt as fuck.
When I was in 6th grade, my friend decided to make some spaghetti, but she didn't know how. So she just grabbed a pot and put pasta, thinking it will magically turn into spaghetti. But it burned, the thing was, she didn't know she had to add water.
Lisa Johnson First of all, #10 was Easy Mac, in a microwave, and he FORGOT to add water. This was pasta, in a pot, and she DIDN’T KNOW to add water. Two completely different scenarios. Also, this kind of thing happens far more often than you would expect. My sister’s best friend has a mom who just can’t cook, and her favorite example of this was when said mom was supposedly cooking pasta. The two girls were in another room when they smelled smoke and immediately ordered a pizza, knowing the pasta had been burned.
Good job some times I’m just a jerk sometimes I send my apologies I well try to stop doing stuff like that ((I do feel like an stupid head and you can comment to this saying stuff like you should and other stuff like you big jerk head stop writing mean stuff like that without reading the ho,e thing. And if you do write stuff like that I well understand I get stuff like that a lot I’m used to it it won’t hurt my feelings thx for spotting me out)) and again I am truly sorry
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm wtf did you just say dude
another egg story: When I was sitting in my room on a weekend, my mom had some already boiled eggs from earlier this morning, so my mom thought that you microwave them. . . our microwave BLEW UP. i felt my bed shake, and our neighbors thought something had happened and even rushed over, there was egg and smoke and ashes EVERWHERE. Great job mom, great job.
When i was 7 i didnt know you had to boil eggs to make boiled eggs (idiot me) probably because the shell was still on it when i would eat them so i got some raw eggs out and ate them expecting them to be like boiled eggs, and surprisingly i didnt get sick
I... I am guilty of the hard boiled eggs in the microwave mistake too... What happened was I made some hard boiled eggs, dumped t he boiling water out, and refilled with cold water to cool the eggs. I had forgotten about them, leaving the eggs stone cold. So, I had the brilliant idea of peeling the shells off, and put the eggs in the micro for maybe 20 seconds. Well, what I learned was how to make home-made tactical nukes. The eggs were indeed hot, but did not explode, UNTIL I BIT INTO ONE! BOOM! As the egg exploded, the sudden release of super-heated steam fresh from the reactor, burnt up the entire inside of my mouth. Damn near had to go the the hospital!
Dana Dedenne My 7 year old self thought you could boil eggs by putting them in the microwave. So I did and when the timer went off and I took it out,it exploded in my face. I had to go get some perfume and spray the kitchen cause it was leaving a nasty smell. 🙃
So back when I was 16 years old, I had 3 besties, let's call them: Kevin, Jimmy und Marvin for simplicity. So Kevin was always braggin about his "awesome and famous secret pasta sauce" he could cook and what a good cook he was. One time Jimmy's parents went on vacation and we turned their kitchen into a testing site where we dared Kevin to make his super duper sauce. Long story short: He added crazy amounts of mustard and as it began to boil well, it didn't smelled well so we had to evacuate the apartment. Only Marvin tasted it and he was ill for days. and When Jimmy's parents returned 1week later the smell was still there. In conclusion: Jimmy got banned from his own kitchen and me Marvin and Kevin got banned from his apartment. ^-^
One time I tried making a cake, the kind that gives you the mix in a box. I stirred it up, but I didn't know how the oven worked. The box said to bake the cake for 20 minutes, so I entered 2-0-0-0 into the timer on the oven. Turns out it was cooking for 20 HOURS... luckily, my mom got the... ahem... cake out of the oven without making everyone burn to death.
Nem Wed the quotation marks mean that I'm making fun of you, essentially. I find the fact you call it 'markiplier's song' just amuses me. He does not own it, he didn't compose it, and it's generic royalty free music.
My worst cooking fail? Well my dumbass was sautéing some vegetables so I can make some Lo Mein for dinner and I set the vegetables on fire as I left them on the stove to go to the bathroom. Aren't I the smartest!
Story: I was feeling hungry on the weekend so I decided to make some sweet sugar cookies. I added all the ingredients and put it into the oven. When I took it out I let them cool and took a bite of one of them. I immediately spit it out it was terrible. I soon found that I put salt in the mix instead of sugar.
funny story that happened to me was when I was younger I wanted a microwave burrito but when I put the frozen burrito into the microwave I set the microwave to 23 minutes and walked away to play with some dinosaur bone slime when suddenly I looked up and the microwave was on fire I woke my older sister up and she tried to put the fire out in a panic our dad got home early and he saw the fire he got mad at me and I never tried to cook food without adult supervision
One time I was making popcorn and it said 3 minutes on high... 12 minutes on defrost was my tactic. It was like charcoal when I opened the bag! I tried it when it had fully cooled but it burned my mouth!!! It was radio activeness in its purest form!
my mom chose to put a pizza in the oven with the box. my dad said not to do it but she said it was fine the result was that the box turned black and smoke came out.
Ray Lau okay I'm teN AND WHY JUST WHY IN THE NAME OF MY SAVIOR TEM WOULD THEY DO THAT. I HAVE LOST ALL FAITH IN HUMANITY THAT YOUR MOM PUT A BOX IN THE OVEN?!
Some people are just really stupid and don't read the instructions. I think that's what happened with Dolan. He must've forgotten to read the instructions, which is why he didn't think to add water.
Two horrible cooking mistakes I made: 1: When I was little, and home by myself for the first time, I got hungry and decided to make a hot dog. However, instead of coking it for 80 seconds, i put it in for 8 minutes. I only realized my mistake when a nasty smell came down to the basement, and the house was full of smoke, and the microwave door was trying to burst open. 2: I tried to reheat an Arby's roast beef sandwich in the microwave, and forgot to take the tin foil off. It burst into flame, and I freaked out.
My mom let a boiling chicken boil over at my old house while we watched Sing. We had an electric stove but with removable coils. It made a small explosion and we had to replace all four coils
my cousin destroyed a bowl by putting ramen noodles in the microwave in a plastic/glass bowl i cant remember which one explodes but yeah he destroyed our microwave lel
Hellbent: GhostToast put a bowl of Ramen in the microwave, but didn't include water and *BURNT THE SHIT OUT OF IT* Me: *DIES on floor laughing my ass off XD*
Wolfie Sampson I'VE LITERALLY BEEN SEARCHING THE VAST DESERTS OF THE COMMENTS TO FIND FELLOW MARK FANS it's 2:45 in the morning and I haven't had any coffee please send help
On time I decided to make cookies but I was like.. 4, so I took cookie dough in balls and microwaving them for five minutes over and over. Nothing happened so I did it until the whole inside of the microwave caught fire. My older brother came out and immediately panicked. He ran up, didn't even unplug the microwave and just pulled it until it fame free, breaking the outlet, he threw it outside and called the fir department, good thing because we hadn't cut the grass in like, two months in the back yard, all the dead grass caught fir. They put it out quickly. To this day I hate making cookies, even with others helping me.
+Leelimelem0n REBOOTED dude, I love your video, when you're unboxing fnaf figures! I'm a girl and my friends get confused of why i skateboard, play videogames, and just don't care what I say and do, and all play soccer. but anyways, I'm actually Allie, and I had to use my parents accounts... I guess that's what happens when you set up an account late at night, and don't remember it...
I cooked an abomination that was actually delicious. I used Doritos, parmashawn cheese, bacon bits, and the cheese that came with the noodles. (I'm sorry for the spelling)
Well my idiot self tried to make some pizza and I was so tired so I put it in the dish washer instead of the oven, I turned it on and then went into the living room, a parentally I herd something ooze.... the pizza cheese and the soap was oozing out of the washer and hit the damn thing and that made it worse but it gets even better, when I hit it the washer was in bad condition so pieces came flying out, am I an idiot or what?
One time like a dumbass I threw a breakfast burrito that still had foil on it And it burst into flames luckily I was right there and stopped the microwave The fire stopped emidiatly and it was a good breakfast
When I was 4 years old , I put a frozen juice box in the microwave hoping it would thaw. Just then the juice box burst into flames and my little brother and I just watched in awe for a few seconds. When I opened the microwave the fire stopped immediately but the juice box was still frozen ;-;
there was this one time when I cooked spicy noodles, but I forgot to add water. after about 2 minutes of cooking in the microwave, I could smell something burning and I could smell the spices. I couldn't stop coughing for like an hour, and the smell of burnt noodles lingered around the house for a few hours.
When I was seven, I tried to make homemade jelly beans. But I took those words literally. I put some pinto beans in strawberry jelly, and mix it up to have jelly beans. I somehow knew that I didn't get the results I wanted, and I threw them in the trash.
Well... sometimes they do. One just needs to become a microwave wizard. For example... Grab a coffee mug. Put a bit of oil in it and coat the walls of the cup with it. Scramble a couple of eggs and whatever you like in your eggs in it. Make sure the cup isn't too full. Microwave for about 2 minutes. It might turn into a tower of cooked egg while going, but when it stops, it will go back down. Enjoy. One or two minutes at a time seems to be the way to go with a microwave. If more time is needed, it can be started back up.
