can the toaster burn a little frowny face on every piece of toast? oh joy. |
|
|
...It's feet are uneven, so it's wobbly. And if you stop it before the toast pops up, you have to use a utensile to get the bread out... |
|
|
[edit: utensile? Apparently it affects brain function as well] |
|
|
And it's got a reserve energy source so it can electrocute you even when it's unplugged. But the source can not be used to actually toast things. Only to hurt people. |
|
|
zen_tom, you need to get out more. |
|
|
And stop watching slasher movies. |

I was going to suggest this toaster should be activated by an evil laugh, but that would only confuse the hand dryer. How about having it play some eerie, ominous background music that comes to a startling crescendo while it toasts? |
|
|
zen, great anno and cool link. Thats what I envisioned (that picture in your link)when I thought of this, but with sharp edges and super-strong springs |
|
|
...everyone looks evil, less attractive and 10 years older when reflected in the toaster's shiny chrome surface... |

Well I could, but rather google: Elvis and the shitheads, I presume you are familiar with at least half of their discography. |

Sorry, all I could think of was the toaster from Red Dwarf. |
|
|
But I guess I'll add that it needs at least basic legs so that when you are not looking it can tilt and fire the burning toast at you as you distractedly slip your morning coffee. |
|
|
PS I hate to get technical here, but will any spring working over only a 5" stroke accelerate a piece of toast to lethal velocity? You'd at least need to use pumpernickel or some other more structural bread. I think you'd need compressed air or something and fire it like a spitball. This also adds the ability to blow more on one side and give it a stabilizing spin for better accuracy or bank shots. |

Needs an additional device to butter the
bread before it flies across the room + |

How can this get so so many buns? It's unsafe and er, evil. That's bad, Shirley? |
|
|
so true [Bad/Good Jim]. I don't like evil ideas that hurt people. (Some evil ideas are funny and can make people mad or whatever, but not *aim to hurt or injure*.) |
|
|
Good point. I like a much more superficial evil, which this thing could carry on with after a few minor adjustments. |
|
|
pre-chipping the bakelite plug is an awesome detail. |
|
|
Note to self.... I like toast [+] |
