Microwave Society

The mindset of wanting (and nearly getting) everything "RIGHT NOW". Technology has made gathering or sending information extremely fast and we've begun to think that everything in life should be available on demand.

The postal service is struggling because everyone wants their information right now. Letters are out, emails are in. We want our information NOW. Microwaves cook foods faster, our society wants everything faster. We are a Microwave Society.

Microwave Bitch

A person so lazy and impatient they only take things that come quick fast and in a hurry like food from the microwave as opposed to cooking an actual meal from scratch.

Daughter- omg! My phone is so friggin slow!
Mother- in my day we had to have 35 cents to use a pay phone and the Internet wasn't even an idea! Children today are such microwave bitches!

microwave-meal mate

Microwave-meal mates are people who you become 'close friends' with over a very short period of time by asking too many personal things in the early stages of the friendship and thus, creating the illusion of being close, when in reality,

it is a very forced and superficial way to get to know someone (e.g. playing 21 questions or truth). While this is a quick and easy way to become 'close' with people, the quality of the friendship isn't good and it doesn't last long, kind of like a microwave-meal. Slow-cooked meals are always better, just like friendships which take their natural course to becoming close and age like fine wine.

Jealous best friend: wow, you and the chick from the party last month have gotten pretty close.

Best friend: nah, she's just a microwave-meal mate. I'll probably forget she exists in a couple of months.

microwave mentality

Having the attitude that if something can't be done in 5 minutes or less, it's not worth doing.

Someone's mom: "You know, I just hate how our son never gets his chores done."

Someone's dad: "Yeah it's his microwave mentality. He gets it from you."
