The incredible (incredibly dangerous) backwards microwave oven

I’m so sorry to have another appliance story for you, but I’ve done it again.  Suddenly last night, without warning, the microwave oven started to act as if it was opposite day.  You know how a microwave is supposed to automatically shut off whenever you open the door?  Well, our microwave (a high-powered thing that can make oblivion of a cheese slice in 7 seconds flat) now starts to run on high power whenever the door is opened.  And it will only operate with the door open.  As soon as the door is closed, nada, silence, darkness.  Open door and whoosh, dangerous microwaves give me new diseases.  Of course I didn’t allow this to go on for more than a second, and only because I was in a state of shocked confusion, but c’mon… I’m down to a leaky washing machine, a dryer, and the oven.  Then I’m out of appliances to damage.  The freaky thing about the microwave is that when the door is opened and it’s actively “baking”, it’s not even programmed to be cooking.  All the times have been cleared, I’ve left it unplugged, etc.  Is this the class action suit to finally solve my financial issues (I said, tongue in cheek)?  Get me to a tort lawyer, stat! 

On a note of complete unamusement, I’ve had to put all blog comments on moderation.  I’m sorry, but the spammers are just too active and I don’t want their stupid comments live for even sixty seconds.  I get email notification of comments three times an hour, so I promise your intelligent and beloved comment will show up quickly, but the spammer’s comments will just hit the delete bin, where they belong.  Sorry for any inconvenience.
