Actually you can for short periods of time, I think they make a plastic kind that microwavable.

Microwaves just suck in general. If you put a whole uncooked egg in there for a long time the door will blow off.

Yeah. This one time one of my friends was talking about how he put an egg in the micro for like a half hour or something and the egg exploded and the door flew off. So one time my friend and I came home from the bar. I convinced her that we should try this. Her parents had this little dinky 70's microwave and the egg blew up and one of the hinges blew off the door. And it smelled. But it was really funny.

Yeah. One thing that I don't understand is why he put it in for that long anyway. I know that I did it too see if it worked.
