Holder for microwave popcorn bag

Having had both I can see why guys especially would want the full size bags. But, for a gal just wanting a smaller snack the mini work.
We have the minis here- dad will eat those and I do from time to time (I'm on a Pepperidge Farms goldfish kick right now- the baby ones lol). It used to be that the popcorn button on microwaves were a 'one size fits all' kind of thing and microwaves also varied in what their definition of appropriate times were. Same as what was mentioned above too- the size/weight of the bag.

for the minis I find that about 1:05-1:10 is best. more than that it starts getting into that charred taste yuck. Can't remember what I put for the regular size. Took a few tries to get it right as I have a hard time hearing when the popping slows down.
 
For my particular microwave using the Orville Redenbacher's single serve mini bag microwave popcorn the suggestion of 1:30 (one minute & 30 seconds) which is at the high end of the time suggestions works perfectly for me. I hope I am not speaking too soon, but I even put it in set for that and walk away. Comes out just right with very few unpopped and not burned either.
 
Based on the thread title, I thought this was going to be a political thread ... and I was thinking "Yep, that's about all he is useful for".
