As always, click the images to enlarge them. Oh, and don't do this. I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY WHATSOEVER IF YOU FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND BURN YOUR FRIGGIN' HOUSE DOWN. To be safe, you probably should really just ignore this completely.
 | Take a CD. Could be a CD-ROM that didn't burn right - or has incriminating data - or it could just be an old T. Rex CD. |
 | You'll need to cut into it a little bit. Not too much, just get to the shiny part. Be sure to wear your eye protection! |
 | Very nice. Good job! |
 | Now put the mutilated CD into your microwave. For best results, the microwave should be as grody as possible - try not to clean inside it for a few years. |
 | Close the door and turn the microwave on. FOR NO MORE THAN THREE SECONDS! You will see something wonderful that can barely be captured with digital photography. |
 | If you leave the CD in for longer than is absolutely necessary, it will melt and your microwave will become slightly grodier. |
 | And no one will ever retrieve data from your CD ever again. |
