When things go kaboom

I've always told myself that even though I may not be the most competent cook ever, I would never be so silly as to make an egg explode in the microwave. Everyone knows that.

But then...

It was midnight and I was packing a lunch for tomorrow. I ran out of meat, and I need my Daily Intake Of Protein, so I decided to boil an egg. I let it boil and boil. However, when I cracked open the egg, parts of it were still runny. I'd already cracked it open, so I didn't want to re-boil it. Then I figured, hey, it's mostly cooked, just a quick whirl in the microwave will firm it up a bit. It wasn't as if I were putting a raw egg into the microwave ('cause y'know, that's just asking for trouble). BUT HOW WRONG I WAS. Thirty seconds later, the top of my tupperware container blew off and there were egg bits everywhere. >__O;;
