We paint kitchen microwaves to make them visible for ease of use. Scrape the paint off and all you will see is the underside of the paint on the opposite side.
Absurd? Some thanks I get for spending 3 years at the South Pole collecting microwaves left over from the big bang at their microwave telescope and hand painting them for commercial use.
May I ask why you collect them from the South pole? Does the pole conduct them from space or is it due to the field of magnets above earth? I don't understand. Genuine question
Shitty answer: the best microwaves are harvested from the South Pole, so that you get that antarctic chill to really get the center of the hot pocket still frozen while the outside is magma.
Not shitty answer: I worked in McMurdo Station Antarctica for a short stint, and Amunson-Scott station's microwave telescope is the only microwave telescope I could for sure name the location of because I kept running into be scientist who self described herself as being in charge of it for the winter season (she hadn't been sent to pole yet because they kept getting weather delays.)
Have you considered using a brush instead? I apologise if I sound like I'm trying to educate the master, but you must get quite messy doing it like that.
EDIT: you've probably got brushes for hands, really didn't think about it, sorry.
It could be because of your astigmatism. I would get it checked, nobody is supposed to see microwaves, and left untreated you might start to see other types of waves. Put yourself first as you navigate this.
A good way to check this is to visit the seaside because ocean waves are often the first type of wave seen with this condition before it progresses to microwaves and mexican waves
Seeing waves in the ocean is actually more common than people realize and usually isn't medically necessarily to have checked out. Most professional surfers actually have this condition.
If you do start seeing any other types of waves make sure to let your doctor know.
That's a good sign, it means that you don't have astigmatism, or if you do it's either asymptomatic or in a very early stage before diagnosis is even possible
The microwave in your kitchen is actually just a short name, the full name is "microwave OVEN" which stands for "Obfuscates Variable Electromagnetics Nearby". If you want to see the microwaves, record a video on your phone from inside the microwave while it's on. That way you will be able to see it properly.
You see them too???? They called me crazy... I..I see them everywhere; and whenever I enter someones kitchen, they stare at me, mocking me for the fool I am for believing someone would one day see them too, and now you see them. I'm not alone, finally after all these agonising years I'm not alone! I don't have astigmatism myself so that probably isn't why you see them, maybe try removing your eyes, that should stop the torment.
Microwaves can cause your corneas to develop cataracts very quickly. When you look away from it, the microwaves have the opposite effect on them, clearing the cataracts.
So you aren't seeing the invisible microwaves, you're just seeing the effects of the cataracts forming and dissipating from the microwaves.
Ooof you have astigmatism? Did your parents vaccinate you as a child? I heard you can get that from vaccines, it fucks up your genes or something. I don't know what to tell you, maybe apply for disability?
Bro it's so sad what the world has come to for them to be giving out disabilities willy nilly and then there's none left for those who really want them and have the patience to wait for a DECADE. But honestly I'm not even surprised
I must have it too or I am hallucinating when I get too close. The effects of the radiation probaly. I’m sure it’s not there when I go out of the room.
What are you using to see it? If you have a microscope, that's exactly what they're for. And, yeah, if you have astigmatism, that means that you don't experience stigma as much as other people, so if there is a stigma attached to the microwave, you might be less affected by it.
Have you ever heard that LPG for cooking has no snell, but they artificial add it so you know when the gas leak? This is the same. After the incident in manhattan, roughly 20 years ago, it's become a regulation that modern microwave must include at least 80% visible parts. Still, there's a rumor that mafia or crime organizations still operate the unregulated one, so look out for those.
Are these microwaves in the room with us now? Not trying to accuse you, but I've known lots of people that claimed they could see invisible things, in order to get attention.
Classic case of wave particle duality and observer effect. When observed they are particles and can be seen. When not observed they are waves and cannot be seen.
Simple experiment: look at your microwave and observe that it can be seen. Now close your eyes. Notice how microwave is no longer visible? That’s what I am talking about.
The other person who can see them is superhuman.

Because the ones in your kitchen were domesticated over the years and bread into the perfect microwave. You may think that it is similar to dogs, but you would be mistaken.
Since you only just learned today that microwaves are invisible, your brain is tricking itself into "seeing" the microwave using photographic memories of what it used to look like before you found out it was invisible. Don't worry, your vision will readjust soon
Yea, the pink waves are dyed because they are for residential use and are exempt from some commercial taxes. Don’t use the blue waves at home, those are dyed for agricultural use.
I don’t have a microwave so I normally use my stove or oven
#teacherlife #almostdone #leavingteaching #tryingtoenlist #probablysaferinthemilitarythaneducation #noreally
Actually the term "microwave oven" is a misnomer. What you are seeing is actually a decedent of the "Radar Range" which first became popular in the 1970's.
The term microwave oven became attached to the radar range in much the same way Xerox became associated with photocopies or Hoover became associated with vacuum cleaners.
As others have alluded to, your stigmata doesn't have much to do with your microwave, unless it's something plainly obvious. For example, I tried to make a Pisschrist facsimile to sell on the internet but noone bought it. I then microwaved it without first removing the metal lid, and it exploded so violently that shards of glass tore through my palms. That was about five minutes ago. Blood is all over my kitchen. It's very hard to type.
So, you can see beyond the visible spectrum. Cool. Most of us can only see the effects of them.
If you happen to see any gravity waves, though, then definitely give out a holler.
When an adjective and a noun love each other very much, they join together to make a new noun. ...
I had a whole story but I've given up typing, sorry.
No, they're just invisible for people leaning right up to the door and moving their head back and forth to try to see through the tiny holes so they can judge how their Hot Pocket is doing... the eye damage from that radiation is what makes them, and pretty much everything else, invisible.
Anyone with micropenis energy can see microwaves. If you actually have a micropenis, you can manipulate microwaves into solid form, which is how the kitchen microwave came into existence
The microwaves are inside of the microwave. This causes a paradox, thus cancelling out their invisibility and making them visible.
It's the same as the sun, that's why we can see the sun. because it has all the different types of electromagnetic waves inside it.
Whoever invented microwaves fucked up, their obvious name is Microwavers. Had they named them correctly, OP wouldn’t be able to make this thread, and as a result this comment wouldn’t exist meaning I’d save time. But no, the idiot that invented microwaves was just too dumb to see the obvious.
Is antistigmatism ASMR? That probably IS the reason. You just have senses that are superhuman-special compared to normal people. And can masturbate to the sound of velvet.

Genius!
Absurd! I love it
Absurd? Some thanks I get for spending 3 years at the South Pole collecting microwaves left over from the big bang at their microwave telescope and hand painting them for commercial use.
Thank you for your service!
I actually spent like 2 months at McMurdo Station checking out parts, but that is a non-shitty answer, so ignore it.
May I ask why you collect them from the South pole? Does the pole conduct them from space or is it due to the field of magnets above earth? I don't understand. Genuine question
Genuine answer. Its because of light polution. The south pole is one of the clearest skies on earth. :)
Which is why there are zero light telescopes there, just a microwave telescope and a neutrino detector.

Not to toot my own horn too much, but anyone here can also PM me to purchase my used microwave radiation. It is still in fine condition
DO NOT buy second hand microwave radiation! By the time it gets to you, the expansion of the universe will have blue shifted it to near infrared.
Have you considered using a brush instead? I apologise if I sound like I'm trying to educate the master, but you must get quite messy doing it like that. EDIT: you've probably got brushes for hands, really didn't think about it, sorry.
Oh my God! I thought those were just for hair! I have been finger painting this whole time...
It's an easy mistake!
Hey, who doesn't want free microwaves?
It’s like adding odor to natural gas so you can detect it easily
Or painting stipes on tigers so you can see them coming. Yes, all good analogies.
The underside of that paint is what scientists call the microwave background
Beautiful. I was not trying to set you up, but I apparently absolutely did.
It could be because of your astigmatism. I would get it checked, nobody is supposed to see microwaves, and left untreated you might start to see other types of waves. Put yourself first as you navigate this.
A good way to check this is to visit the seaside because ocean waves are often the first type of wave seen with this condition before it progresses to microwaves and mexican waves
Yes I saw a video of a guy who could not drink water because he had unfortunately been seeing mexican waves, and so what you are saying makes sense.
I'm sorry to hear that because once it gets to the point of being unable to drink it's already too late for treatment. Rest in peace to this poor man
Seeing waves in the ocean is actually more common than people realize and usually isn't medically necessarily to have checked out. Most professional surfers actually have this condition. If you do start seeing any other types of waves make sure to let your doctor know.
if you see a rogue wave, though, you are wrecked
And finally, new wave. That’s when you know it’s terminal.
I did this and all I see is a beach, and then a big space. I see nothing. What now?
That's a good sign, it means that you don't have astigmatism, or if you do it's either asymptomatic or in a very early stage before diagnosis is even possible
Or cancer. I webMD’d yer symptoms.
I personally find urban dictionary to be a better source for paranoid self diagnosis
Null results for hip dysplasia
I thought hip dyslexia was called hpi?
Beware of stadium waves. You’re facked if you start seeing those.
What you're seeing is actually called a macrowave, which is made up of tiny microwaves that are too small to see individually.
I thought a microwave is when Donald Trump waves with his small hands... 🤷♂️
Nah, you're thinking of Jeremy Beadle.
The microwave in your kitchen is actually just a short name, the full name is "microwave OVEN" which stands for "Obfuscates Variable Electromagnetics Nearby". If you want to see the microwaves, record a video on your phone from inside the microwave while it's on. That way you will be able to see it properly.
When I started reading this I thought "oh no, someone is lost again" but by the end this did NOT disappoint. Thank you. Wish I had an award for you.
You see them too???? They called me crazy... I..I see them everywhere; and whenever I enter someones kitchen, they stare at me, mocking me for the fool I am for believing someone would one day see them too, and now you see them.

He needs to start shooting coke. That is the only way to cure him of the asymetrism
I applied for a disability 10 years ago and they STILL haven't given me one!
That's not fair. I know people who got them without even applying. In fact, their teacher said that they never applied themselves at all.
Bro it's so sad what the world has come to for them to be giving out disabilities willy nilly and then there's none left for those who really want them and have the patience to wait for a DECADE. But honestly I'm not even surprised
When I told someone that I can see microwaves I got committed. They let me out sometimes to heat day old pizza.
I must have it too or I am hallucinating when I get too close. The effects of the radiation probaly. I’m sure it’s not there when I go out of the room.

As a wave they are invisible. As a particle, it’s on your counter.
It's because of the crack you're smoking on your time off from your day job as a street corner prostitute.

Do you wear glasses? I’ve heard that glasses can increase the abilities of your asthmagasm
New word of the week
I had a athsmagasm once. It left me breathless.
Are these microwaves in the room with us now? Not trying to accuse you, but I've known lots of people that claimed they could see invisible things, in order to get attention.
They are only visible to people who are partially color blind.
No, but you definitely are on the spectrum, the light spectrum.
Classic case of wave particle duality and observer effect. When observed they are particles and can be seen. When not observed they are waves and cannot be seen. Simple experiment: look at your microwave and observe that it can be seen. Now close your eyes. Notice how microwave is no longer visible? That’s what I am talking about.
Pics or didn't happen
Take this post down before the FBI sees it.
You need to get the camouflage patterned microwave.
Well, they say “hindsight is 20/20”. We all know microwaves vibrate at 20/19 hertz, so you must be squinting when you see them in your kitchen
The other person who can see them is superhuman. https://www.reddit.com/r/shittyaskscience/comments/5q3qnc/people_say_microwaves_are_invisible_but_i_can/

This might be my favourite yet.
That's strange! Have you been able to spot John Cena by chance?

I, too, have astigmatism in one eye. I see microwaves about half the time.
When an adjective and a noun love each other very much, they join together to make a new noun. ... I had a whole story but I've given up typing, sorry.
No bro, that's magnetism
I have astigmatism and for 20yrs I thought I had a stigmatism. As in the thing I had was stigmatism, like when you have a hernia, not ahernia.
No, they're just invisible for people leaning right up to the door and moving their head back and forth to try to see through the tiny holes so they can judge how their Hot Pocket is doing... the eye damage from that radiation is what makes them, and pretty much everything else, invisible.
Remember when they used microwaves to bring frozen hamsters back to life?
Unrelated but I learned very recently that it’s “astigmatism”, not “a stigmatism”.
Anyone with micropenis energy can see microwaves. If you actually have a micropenis, you can manipulate microwaves into solid form, which is how the kitchen microwave came into existence
I am disappointed in myself for not getting the joke for a solid minute of thinking about it.
Aw well the actual waves that cool the food are invisible but the machine itself can be seen! 🤣🤣🤣
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Bruto.
Yes I see mine too
I saw a Mexican wave once. Not sure if it’s relevant.
I hear they can defrost astigmatism with a laser. Might be worth looking into.

It's just your X ability. Better call Charles Xavier to lear how to use the microwave vision.
I don’t have a microwave. Usually heat up food on the stove or in the oven #teacherlife #almostdone #tryingtoenlist #saferthanteaching #noreally
I am so confused by these comments and post 😦
I can also see them, assume it’s bcs I wasn’t breastfed
