    You should, by my calculations, still have corn.

    Eat the corn.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Set kitchen on fire, throw in bag of popcorn. Listen carefully and remove popcorn when popping slows.

    Putting popcorn into the microwave might be like putting toast into a toaster.

    It is a true zen art to get the balance between as much popcorn popped and no popcorn burnt.

    I tried this once, the corn didn't pop. I was very disappointed as I was expecting the corn to pop and, while airborne, burst into flames resulting in an inferno spewing out little balls of fire.
