I'm kinda surprised there's even a "Fresh Vegetables" button in there. Why not add "Pizza" instead?

Uh, Dave (and Arthur) you're right, this is totally a dude's microwave...
Just shuffle up to it, put something inside and press the corresponding button.
Unless you're scared of the dark, then press "Night Light".

Yeah, the fish fillet button weirds me out, but I'm with Shalaina on this point: what does a button for "fresh vegetable" do?
You put in some broccoli.
You press the button for "fresh vegetable" and wait.
A voice like a Speak'n'Spell announces, "Congratulations on choosing to eat some fresh vegetables for once in your life. What do you want, a medal?"
The microwave dings.
You eat the broccoli.

Notice the non-parallel construction: "fresh vegetable" but "baked potato". Why would you bother putting the potato in the microwave if it's already baked?? [My 'wave has a "frozen entree" button next to "frozen vegetables" next to "fresh vegetables." And the zen "potato", without modifier.]
