Tell me if this scenario sounds familiar to you: you step into the kitchen ready to work your magic, you have all the confidence in the world and then BAM!…something goes awry and your day is ruined.

It really stinks, ya know?

But, if it’s not happening to you, it can be pretty hilarious!

And we’re about to show you why!

We’re here to present to you some major microwave fails that you hopefully will not see in your own kitchen anytime soon.

Let’s see what happened to those poor people…

1. We got a smart one here!

Come on, people!
