Note to self: when melting butter in the microwave to use over popcorn, do NOT set microwave to high.
Luckily, our microwave is from 1987 and thus built like a tank. In order to destroy it, you‘d actually have to stick a smaller microwave inside it and activate the two simultaneously. This would, of course, tear a hole in the space-time continuum, destroying the universe as well as the microwave. So don’t try it.
Here’s a close-up of the carnage:

This is why I use a minimal amount in for 20 seconds or less, depending on how much, the container, etc. 
And I watch while it melts xD
That’s so gross. A party to clean up, I bet.
And jesus, that microwave *is* a tank. I’m scared your animal fat may be have been rendered (hehe) highly radioactive. 
I successfully cleaned up the butter with a minimal of effort thanks to the liberal application of Soap™.
We have a similar microwave.
I’ve found that with ours, you can stick small amounts of aluminum foil in it safely, for scientific purposes of course.
I did the exact same thing last week! Now I know what I did wrong…
btw, I got here from the challenger page. Nice work.
oh you silly fool…
I also worry about my tank of a microwave and its radioactive properties. Apparently it’s dated from back when my parents were dating. So at least 20 years old, and who knows how old it was before then :P.
