Re: im not crazy I SWEAR

MY mY mY ladies...lets learn those timers and moisture content of the food.
Its rather simple if you heat up a cup of water today...tomorrow it will be the same

Example..bread is rather fast..there is not a lot of moisture there

Cup o noodles will take a while due to its water content.

Hint...we are basically heating the moisture of the food.

On low moisture foods...we dont need alot of time as the microwave is very powerful for the moisture content within.

Hint...this is not linear however as heat has to travel to the mass of the food..the mass is absorbing the heat while the water is being heated.

Water boils at 212 F...so in effect a more powerful microwave isnt much faster in certain conditions once the water begins to boil more energy is merely a waste.
While the more powerful oven will bring the moisture to a boil faster..that is the only gain...once reached the only usable energy is that which is used to keep that maintained while the heat transfers to the remaining mass.

Thus why the damn things are so easy to use with sandwiches etc.

Re: im not crazy I SWEAR

I'm very weird about the way I eat food. I'm picky about temp, texture, all that. I'm the slowest eater I know. I can't mix foods together. I typically eat the veggie, then the side, before eating the main part of the food. I *always* have to have something to drink with my food. I don't know how people eat without a drink. >.< lol

I eat my skittles in rainbow color order.

I hate typos in text messages, emails, forum posts, anything. I will always correct them and hate when I send a text without catching a typo. I always feel like I look like a moron.

When I get dressed in the morning, I always do it in the same order or it feels weird. Panties, bra, pants, shirt. I also have to put both socks on before I can put on my shoes.

When I'm home by myself, I won't open any windows, no matter how lovely the weather is. My door is always double locked, and I check it constantly to make sure it didn't somehow come unlocked.

There's probably a lot more. I'm big into counting pretty much...everything. Assigning a letter it's numerical value in the alphabet and trying to make a word as close to either zero or an even number as possible by adding and subtracting numbers. :( I've got a bit of OCD. Can't sleep at night because of it sometimes! lol

I don't wanna get toothpaste on my shirt! You think you wash it off and you have a stain again like an hour later.... easier to do it topless.

I have to have the windows/tabs in my internet browser open in a specific order. If they aren't, I must fix them. I even open them in the same order each time I open the browser again.

Re: im not crazy I SWEAR

thought of another one today when I was getting out of my car to get coffee at the 711...I always take my phone everytime I get out of my car (even if it's for 30 seconds), because if my car gets stolen, I need to have a way to call the cops....lol

I do the same thing. I always have my cell on me as long as I'm not on duty. Part of that is b/c of the potential for crime and part of it is bring worried about missing a SWAT callout (miss 2 in a row and you're off the team).

Re: im not crazy I SWEAR

I am so concerned about looking like an idiot in public I often won't even do what I need to if it's not going well. For instance, if I'm at the microwave and I can't get my food hot enough and there's someone waiting for it behind me, I'll just walk off with cold food to avoid looking like I'm taking too long.

Happens all the time. Annoying!

I do this too! I just say, ahh screw it...it's easier if I don't do it or if I do it _____ way. Glad I'm not the only one :)

Wow! All of this time and I never knew you were involved in that kind of work. Kudos to you, that must be demanding position.

Thanks. ;) I've been a 911 dispatcher for over 11 years now. I got involved w/ the SWAT team about 4 or 5 years ago.

Re: im not crazy I SWEAR

I always brush my teeth topless

Me too! But besides the no-stain thing, I think it's also just cuz of when I do it... in the morning, I do it when I get out of the shower, so I'm already naked... at night, I do it after I take my clothes off for bed, so I'm already mostly naked then too.

Re: im not crazy I SWEAR

if i get one foot wet I MUST get the other foot wet too, like if i test the bath temp with one i can't leave the other dry, it just feels wrong.

I'm like that with my hands. If I have something that needs to be washed off on one hand, I have to wash them both. I can't just wash and dry that one hand. I have to wash them both or I will kill something or somebody.:24:

Re: im not crazy I SWEAR

I can't function if the window blinds are jacked up. Like, say, one of the blinds doesn't fall in place the right way (tends to get caught on the little stick you use to open and close them). I *have* to go fix them before I can do any work. LOL
