Thoughts, Barely, by Xmastime

You can’t fucking win when it comes to microwave popcorn. Wait to pull it out one nanosecond too late and everything gets burned to a crisp. Pull out too early, you’re left with a million uncooked kernels at the bottom of the bowl. Then you wonder for a second about trying to re-cook those kernels, but decide that maybe not having a job and sneezing into old socks instead of buying paper towels is white trash enough, thank you very much. - XMASTIME
If the popcorn turns into a heap of ashes because you've left it in the microwave for a nanosecond too long, how come the very first kernel that pops isn't incinerated after sitting in there for another minute while the rest pops?

Life.  It's really happening, isn't it?.
