Enough background. What frustrates me each time I do this is that I always go through the effort of punching in 2-2-0 on the key pad, even though this number doesn’t need to be at all precise. After I’m done entering the number, I always think to myself “Why didn’t you just do 2:22? It would be more efficient from an effort perspective.” I always intend to do that next time, but usually forget.

So I’m now working on optimizing the times that I enter on the microwave to minimize button pushes. Kind of lame, I know, but it’s a little game to play.
