"Making things cold" is exactly the job I want my refrigerator to do, though, so it's about as much a 'waste' of electricity as running my microwave to heat something up is. 420 put hot things in the fridge every day, I need the drat counter space

Also maybe... condensation? But really some foods you should immediately refrigerate for preservation, regardless of temperature or Achewood.

You're thinking about it wrong. You wouldn't thaw a turkey in your microwave. It'd be a waste of electricity (and would gently caress it up). Just toss that fucker in the sink for a few hours. If you want to cool your food before putting it away, and need counter space, put the food in an airtight container and toss that poo poo in your powered-off oven until it's room temperature. Just don't forget about it and find it a week later...

One time my roommate in college make a Stouffer's frozen lasagne in the oven, took it out to cool, then had to go do something so he put it back in (the oven was off and not particularly hot any more by then) thinking that it would keep warm until he got back to eat it. Then he forgot about it. We found it a little over a week later, pretty dried out but probably still edible if you were desperate. Luckily whoever found it looked in the oven before turning it on to preheat.

Actually, that airtight seal will help keep the temperature up and encourage bacterial growth. Ideally, you'd put that uncovered container in a bowl of ice water to rapidly bring that food down to room temperature before you stick it in the fridge. Does GWS have an  with a chef's hat?

Just put your stuff right in the fridge. How much energy do you think it's going to take to cool it down than if you left it out? Condensation? It's hot, it'll be the last thing to gather moisture, HELLO!!

I-It's.. I don't even know how to feel anymore. I knew this moment would come, but I don't know how to act now that Achewood has finally updated. Also it's interesting that it's Sept. 30's strip, not Oct 1st's, which is Achewood's birthday (and mine!) dare we hope for another strip later?

I find it best if you imagine Nice Pete's father talks like Hillbilly Meatwad. (Appalachian Simon Chipmunk is also acceptable)

"Strong talk with a dash of lies" is one of those Onstadisms that's so perfectly worded and sticks in your head to such an extent that you're sure it was already an expression. (I checked, it's not.)
