While that might seem obvious to some people, others have fallen for the “Wave” hoax making its way around online. The fake advertisement insists that the new iOS 8 allows users to charge their iPhones by placing them in a “household microwave for a minute and a half.”
Microwave energy will not charge your smartphone. To the contrary, it will scorch the device and render it inoperable. If you nuke your smartphone and subsequently complain about it online, people will probably make fun of you.

Duh, of course it doesn't work, unless you've got an iPhone compatible microwave... :)

If people are that stupid, it may be safer if they just don’t have a phone.

To: dynachrome
Nobody could be that stupid.
Um, well, I said that about the possibility of Obama being elected President (twice), and was clearly wrong.
So, I withdraw that objection. Never mind...

If you’re stupid enough to do this, you deserve to lose your iPhone.
Talk about credulous!

Of course; most microwave ovens are only Android compatible.

Today, I tried to buy two unlocked iPhone 6 or 6 Plus from anyone that had a phone number in the civilized world. Even tried the Apple store {twice} NO luck, regardless of price.
So, I won’t be taking any presents overseas on our trip in 10 days.

More fun and cost less to cut a grape in half, save for a small flap, open it up and microwave it!!!!
Burned out light bulbs are also fun.
GO FOR IT!

OMG! LOL!
What idiots...do they need an app to remind them how to breathe?

I can’t believe (well, maybe I can) that people are still doing this. This never made sense and was debunked ages ago
