Toasters will one day rule the world.

So I finally unpacked my toaster this morning. (Finishing up kitchen work plus I'd been out of town, blah blah blah.) This thing has *controls.* Don't believe me? I'm reading the manual.

Toast Button and Indicator - Press this button if you want to toast bread. The indicator will light to confirm that "Toast" is selected.

It also warms, defrosts and does something special to bagels I'm not sure I should ask about. I'm taking it on a test run now where, yes, I want to toast bread, but the bread is also frozen! Normal toasters would go blindly on, toasting the frozen bread, but not Toast Central 3000 (as is its new name.)

Oh, look at that. Toast!

My toaster has a "pop tarts" setting. It just cracks me up.

HA!! Dammit, mine doesn't have a pop tart setting!

I am very disappointed that you did not name your new toaster "Chief".

Hmmmm. He *is* a Cylon and so that probably would be a better name...

Didn't you see the preview?

OMG THEY'RE ALL CYLONS!!!

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2007-03-22 03:07 pm (UTC)(link)
THEY ARE!

If it were my show, Baltar would be the only one who wasn't a Cylon.

There's a bit of brilliance there...

It is the TOAST CENTRAL 3000. That sounds like something you would buy in The Sims or something.

I am totally in love. Please report on your progress!

HA!

And the toast was actually really good toast this morning. Like, the Perfect Toast. I'll have to admit it.

I COVET YOUR TOASTER LIKE WHOA.

As you should! :D It's shiny and huge!

Toast is all I can eat. I wish to go home and think about toast.

Toast is a great thing to think about.

My friend has a $400 toaster.
I have no idea what it does but it doesn't have any indicator lights.


Toast rules.

Woah. I hope it gives good toast!

[identity profile] syxp.livejournal.com 2007-03-22 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Me too.

I really have no idea why it is so expensive. Maybe it will be last forever and become a family heirloom.
