MAN SETS FIRE TO HOME BY MICROWAVING SOCKS, UNDIES

LONDON (AP) — Note to self: A microwave is for leftovers, not your boxers.
British firefighters say they saved an apartment from destruction after its domestically challenged resident tried to dry his wet socks and underwear in a microwave oven.
The Dorset Fire and Rescue Service says firefighters rescued the man from his home and extinguished the kitchen blaze Monday.

If he was gonna use it to cook food in after that, he probably deserves what he got.

all joking aside i can sympathize with this guy because the dryers don’t work over there. even if you leave them on for most of the day your clothes still come out damp. it’s enough to drive someone crazy.

Gotta admit I’ve been there. Caught it in time, though. Clothes were melted but no fire.

Never done that before. When I was younger, I tried to “heat up” left-overs that were in plastic containers in the oven. Didn’t work out well….
