I don't know, my microwave flashes "Enjoy your meal" every time it's done heating something and I like that little touch.
What kind of microwave is that? Mine just swears at me. Consecutively.
Microwaves are the most aggressive robots.
"Hey! Hey! Your food has been ready for zero seconds! Hey!"
. . .
"Hey! F#$face! Your burrito has been ready for five seconds! Eat your g-d food meat bag!"
. . .
"Ten seconds?! REALLY?! Are you serious?! We're enemies forever now! Eat this crap for f's sake!"

#23Who uses Facebook?
About 60% of all people who have access to the internet worldwide, or nearly 1/4 of all human beings currently alive.
Do they not have google where you live?

I see you've met my dishwasher.
"Hey, the wash cycle is over" Yes, but everything is still as hot as lava.
"Hey, it's been 5 minutes." Still hot.
And then it beeps a "Hey!" every five minutes thereafter.

#25You know, I bet it was something to do with `memorializeUser` again (see https://www.columbia.edu/~ng2573/zuggybuggy_is_2scale4ios.pd... slide 46). In fact I would go so far as to say this is the kind of thing that should be encoded in the type system so it's a compile error to try to do this.
