Boil water huh, well the solution is not NEARLY as simple as you would have us think.

First (ALWAYS) you say "Hun, I'm brewing a pot of tea, would you like a cup?" (this is irregardless of gender, and failure will result in the inevitable "WELL, I guess I've got to make my own tea around here!" if the offended is a female, or "What the hell am I, an orphan?" if the offended is male)

Second you take the teapot and pour the enclosed water into big mugs with pictures of herbs, or sayings like "the buck stops here", or "If you can't stay young, you can at least stay immature" on them.

Third you stick the mugs in the microwave for an amount of time determined by the aforementioned parties, if a time cannot be demacratically arrived at then you'll need to put one cup in for one amount of time, and the other cup in for the other amount of time.

Finally you start the microwave and hope that the toaster oven isn't on at the same time, in which case you'll have to go reset the fuse (instructions to be provided on demand).
