Sounds a little dangerous.
This is jus a meme, so i wouldnt actually do this, but i accidentally miked a spoon once and was surprised when it didnt spark. Looked it up and turns out it needs to be metal and lik sharp edges for it arch across. So exposed fork BAD exposed spoon meh
I hear that depends on the microwave. Ours will spark with a spoon, where as my parents in law won't.
How you fit your parents in law in microwave?
A piece at a time
skilfully
Just wire the knives into the transformer of the microwave
And place three cans of hairspray in between them.
its actually not. You need something the size of at least half the wavelength of the microwave, or multiples of it. Thats why forks and aluminium foil spark a lot (they have "antennas" that allow for charge separation through the microwave and if two of those separated charges are in close proximity a spark is formed).
But if you have one single "antenna" like in a knife or spoon, no part of large charge separation is close enough for a spark.
However if you dont know about this you better not put anything metallic or conductive into the microwave.
We had a microwave in highschool we used to throw shit into to see what happened. CDs were good.
Incandescent light bulbs are the best
Don't try to microwave 2 knives at the same time.
Also, don't use too much time, and be careful picking it up.
So yeah, there are enough warnings that I wouldn't recommend it. The last one in particular is a real issue.
It can also arc with the wall of the microwave
Burning your house down will soften that butter right up.
