Oh no, critical thinking was required to heat my pizza!

They say patience is a virtue. I don’t know about that, although I do know it can get you cold pizza!

There I was, hungry and ready to eat – now!

Which was why I decided to use the microwave instead of the toaster oven, because that would have taken longer.

When, all of a sudden, I pushed the wrong button. I hit “Time” instead of “Quick On”!

That’s where you have to “manually” enter the full amount. You know, like, “3-0-0″ and “Enter” – all that work… and time away from the fulfillment of my ever need… the hot, juicy, mouth-watering pizza being in my hand and in my mouth, fast!!!

The Quick On button was what I had meant to hit, which would have saved me like 2.5 whole seconds, which in Pizza Time seems like an eternity.

That would have been where after hitting “Quick On” I just would have pressed “3″ and it would go for 3 minutes and shut off.

For about three-fourths of a second I looked at the display and “What to do?” ran through my mind….

“Do I hit cancel and then go back and hit the Quick-On button? Or I’m already here, I guess it won’t be so bad to type in the full time manually (I PROBABLY won’t die of starvation having to wait that extra 1.5 seconds!)”

Can you believe that? I actually had to use critical thinking to heat my pizza!?

What’s this world coming to when you have to make an important decision before you can have your instant food done in an instant?

Well… my three minutes are up (my pizza’s getting cold, in fact).

Go ahead and mull that over.

…While I’m eating!

- The best way to learn patience…. Huh?!

Do you really want to buy a product purporting to teach patience from someone who can’t even wait an extra second and a half before heating up his pizza in the microwave?

I don’t have any way of helping you learn patience. In fact, left me know if you know of one!
