Not really an invention because I already have one sort
of. My
beloved coffee maker broke so I bought a replacement.
It
sounds haunted in that the steam going through the
brewing
mechanism makes moaning noises.
So it would be fairly easy to have the steam pass through
mouth shaped parts
in sequence to appear to speak.
I would have it say "Ohhh yeaaaa!" not in a sexual
context, which would be not only weird but downright
disturbing, but making an exclamation of excitement
about
this great pot of coffee coming along.
Theoretically you could adjust it to say other things but
that would just be stupid.

Sequencing the steam flow through a series of these you could get full sentences. [doctorremulac3, May 05 2020]

All the doors in this spaceship have a cheerful and sunny disposition. It is their pleasure to open for you, and their satisfaction to close again with the knowledge of a job well done. [pertinax, Nov 29 2021]

"Oh, ah Cantona" - probably only understood in UK.

It should be possible to combine an espresso machine with a tiny fairground organ mechanism. |

Curses ! Not only are coffee grinders powered by miniature steam engines Baked, but there's even an idea on the HB ... |
|
| |
//coffee grinders powered by miniature steam engines// Very passé. One would hope for a full size steam engine to power one's coffee grinder. |
|
| |
This should be a thing, right now today. Can we sneak it
into the next Executive Order? |
|
| |
I would definitely have it say "Ohhh yeaaaaaa!" in a sexual
context. I could seduce young ladies and bring them home,
flirting gently as the coffee machine moans undertones of
sexual excitement. Later on in the evening, just as things
are starting to get interesting, I would simply wander off
and drink coffee. |
|
| |
I am the worst Tinder date ever. |
|
| |
I was thinking of putting up a video of my "talking"
coffee maker. It sounds more like a dying last
breath than anything else. |
|
| |
There you go, have a replica of a famous statue of
somebody dying as a coffee maker. Just stick my
coffee maker in it and you're done. |
|
| |
A goth kid's coffee maker right there. |
|
| |
I'm getting a different beverage. I associate this exclamation with large animated pitchers of Kool-Aid bursting through masonry. |
|
| |
Did he say anything when he busted through the
wall?
I just remember all the kids screaming and running
for their lives. |
|
| |
Yup, after doing a little search, that was his tag line. See
link. |
|
| |
He'd bust into a room full of kids, make an overtly
sexual "Oh yea!" moan and then proceed to
physically attack anybody who got in his way. |
|
| |
No wonder I blocked this out of my mind. |
|
| |
Could we get it to emulate one of those film clips they used to show at intermission at the drive-in? E.g., "Our snackbar has hot, delicious coffee just waiting for you to enjoy—why not grab a cup now?" With appropriate perky '50s prod-the-consumers music. I'd get one of those. |
|
| |
I've always been a big fan of giving personalities to
appliances. |
|
| |
“Oh,” said Arthur, “sounds ghastly.” |
|
| |
"Talkie's the name, toasting's the game, would anyone like any
toast?" |
|
| |
How about a sexy toaster that says "Psst. Hey good lookin',
how's about we make a little toast together?" Just some pretty
eyes on the side like the bottle in "I Dream Of Jeanie" would
do it. (link) |
|
| |
I was going to suggest elaborating on the idea, something
about the toaster having a place to put things into and it went
from cute to gross so please disregard the whole idea. |

Ventriloquism would solve a lot of your "issues", [Dr.] |

//Could we get it to emulate one of those film clips they used to show at intermission//
Inspired by this comment & a mistaken sense of nostalgia for my childhood, I made the very bad error of spending some time watching a few 1970's Pearl & Dean cinema ads. Oh dear! :( |
|
| |
bs0u0155- How is life? And yes, I'll take two browned. |
|
| |
//"Talkie's the name, toasting's the game, would
anyone like any toast?"// |
|
| |
Why did I read that with the Monty Python guy's
cockney accent? The "Allo govna, owsa 'bout a bit o
toast taday eh whot?" |
|
| |
Might be interesting to have it switch personalities.
"Wonder who the toaster identifies as today?" |
