So I'm pretty sure my microwave is possessed by the devil. The other day I was sitting in my living room/office/dining room (okay, so it's my all-purpose room where I spend 95% of my time when I'm in my apartment) and I heard a beep. I thought at first it must be coming from a car parked in the alley. I heard it again a few seconds later, so I went to look out my kitchen window. That's when I realized it was my own microwave beeping at me.
When I first looked at the microwave screen where the time should have been it was empty. Then, the beeping happened again, and one 6 came up. A few milliseconds later, another beep and a second 6. Clearly, I could see where this was going and I was not happy about it. I hit clear and reprogrammed the time into the microwave.
The microwave accepted the time I set, then beeped and 666 came up. Uh, not okay. I hit cancel as quickly as I could, but the numbers did not clear. I hit it again and the screen cleared out. I set the time again and walked away. Minutes later, more beeping and 666 was back.
Freaking out a little, I called my friend, who shrieked a little and advised me to unplug the devil. Good call. I unplugged the microwave while it beeped at me repeatedly, all the while displaying 666.
Since then I've plugged the microwave back again and used it, but after a few hours the devil will arise again. Yeah, not cool. And it's only 11 months old...

Yes! I'm mentioned in your blog! Hope it's working well again...
It looks like it hasn't yet eaten you, so that is good.
PS. When do I get to be mentioned in your blog?
I too have a Chefmate microwave oven doing the same thing. It is also not very old, less than a year. I am getting rid of it today.
Mine woke me up from a crazy dream the other night by beeping a 9 i couldnt get it to clear for the life of me. Finally got it to clear and went to the bathroom and it beeped again but this time 2 sixes on the screen. I unplugged it right away. Mind this was around 6 am. Well that same day i plugged it back in doesnt do it all day. At around 6 am again it starts to beep this time 6666 shows up. Its staying unplugged needless to say. Ive never been so freaked out in my life.
