This morning's science-experiment-gone-wrong

Had some hard boiled eggs which were not boiled long enough (dyed for Easter).

Decided I did not like soft boiled eggs

Cracked the egg, and put it in the microwave for a minute

Looked fine. Took it back to the table, started to peel it... moments later, EGG EXPLOSION EVERYWHERE. EGG ACROSS KITCHEN.EGG IN HAIR. EGG ON FACE. EGG ON WALL. EGG ON CEILING.

(that is all)

@ai6yr What a terrible way to start the day. Eggsplosion: a cautionary tale. I hope you have recovered!!

@firefly I was only laughing uncontrollably for 5 minutes. I knew you weren't supposed to microwave WHOLE eggs, I didn't think a cracked egg (with white exposed) would ALSO explode.

@ai6yr @firefly and now *all of us* of this select group in your realm also know.
I could *easily* imagine doing that experiment myself.
