FOLKS!!!

Just because the microwave has a POPCORN button on it doesn't mean that you're popcorn will turn out ok and not burn. In fact usually most microwaves popcorn buttons are not timed properly and the popcorn usually comes out burnt to a crisp.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!

When you microwave popcorn - stay there until it's done. I'm nauseous to my stomach from the stench of burnt popcorn riffling through the atmosphere.

That is all!!

2. They now have microwave pork rinds
A fellow at work actually caught a bag of these on fire. The stench was terrible. He likes to bring these into my office and munch on them.

3. Your list is merely a subset of mine.
Death penalty for anyone that makes popcorn at work. That smell, in its coils, travels for miles within the same office..

4. I don't mind the smell of popcorn
In fact, I rather enjoy it - gives work a certain festive carnival like atmosphere!

5. I've never liked microwave popcorn anyway
whatever happened to the good ol' air popper days? That took an extra 20 seconds too long?

6. ewww, it does smell awful...my former boss would give you 50cents
and tell you to take your burnt popcorn back down to the cafeteria and dispose of it there and get fresh and don't bring it back up here if you burn it.

her exact words were, as she slammed themoney down on your desk

"take that stinkin shit out of here and toss it in the garbage downstairs, buy yourself some more and pay attention while it pops!
