Microwave Intuition

To pop something in the microwave, and then leave. Then to suddenly drift back towards the microwave just in time to when it hits 0. Basically, to be able to tell when your food is done, just by your intuition.

Microaggressions

The million other straws.

Umbrella term coined and formalised in social studies; "the little things" of living in a socially marginalised group (think women/LGBT/not white). Comparatively small personal offenses that, over a long period, erode their way into a general climate of (at best) discomfort and (at worst, in particularly violent forms) distrust and fear. This ends one of two ways: either the camel's back breaks, and the affected party snaps at someone -- and, typically, never lives it down, as "that PC guy" everyone hates -- or they progressively withdraw from social interaction, into either self-segregation or complete loneliness. (See "safe space." Or, actually, don't.)

That no single particular event can be pointed at makes the matter particularly hard to understand from a mainstream (i.e. white) perspective, particularly one coddled throughout its lifetime into ascribing quasi-magical attributes to the all-encompassing power of their own intent. Such that even bringing up the subject usually ends with some white guy, who couldn't take half a mayonnaise joke, lecturing you on how much better and more thick-skinned he is than you. (He isn't.) This happens consistently enough that "safe spaces" eventually arose, as the affected parties just stopped bothering. (And now he complains about those.)
If you understand "the last straw," you understand microaggressions.

A: "Hur hur, you're a terrorist."
B: "Hur hur, you're a terrorist."
C: "Hur hur, you're a terrorist."
X: "You're not original."
A, B, C (in unison): "You're offended, you oversensitive terrorist!"

(later)

A: "Why do they keep segregating themselves?"
B: "Their sheltered little minds can't handle our original opinions, obviously."
X: "Mayonnaise."
A, B (in unison): "How DARE you?!"

Microwavelessness

When one moves into a new place and doesn't have a microwave oven. You are forced to eat out or use cookware, since you can't cook microwaveable foods.
I just moved into a new apartment and realized that's there's no way to cook TV dinners or Raman noodles. It dawned on me that I was in a state of Microwavelessness.
