By the way, have you considered having your blood pressure checked before you carry on with the rants?

Really appreciate it.<br> <br> On microwave I had sort of guessed that it was to let me know it had finished. But even the dumbest clock will give up and stop beeping after a while - just not a microwave, even if it's doing nothing. The food is reheated. It's not going to go away. Or get more burnt. It's fine where it is. Plus I know it's finished because the microwave has stopped. I am sorry to say there is nothing you can say in defense of the mean clique who spread this cretinous feature. <br> <br> Grockles were introduced to me by a monkey-hanger friend.tag:gizzard.blog.co.uk,2007-06-08:/2007/06/08/various_rants~2417267/#c3741439cassiefrappz2007-06-08T15:40:12+02:002007-06-08T15:40:12+02:00Microwaves beep to let you know they've finished the task you set them - like when you put the timer on the oven!<br> I'm a girl and I definitely DO NOT squeal. If I feel a squeally moment coming on I throw back my head and howl like a wolf. Is that better for you?<br> I can't comment on grockles as I don't travel by train but I LOVE the word grockle..........cassie
