The thing with both toasters, and television sets is that in the perfect world they would be combined as one. Their individual powerful forces merged into a single object which has the potential to change the way in which a whole globe of individuals spend their time in the kitchen (or the living room for that matter). The thing that bugs me with these appliances is that I have a love/hate relationship with both. I love toast, I have ever since I can remember, especially the toast that my granny used to make in her four-slice toaster when I was a kid. Mainly because of the fact that before hers I had never seen a four-slice toaster anywhere else…a true feat of engineering. Anyway…what gets me down is the time you have to spend waiting for the toast to be toasted to a crispy Californian brown. On the other hand, I hate TV… it sucks you in with mindless programming and before you know it you have wasted an entire evening worth of other fun filled activities. Hence my proposal. If the television was built into the toaster, then you would have something to do whilst waiting for your toast and you would spend less time wasted in front of the TV, cause you would feel plain stupid staring at the toaster if not waiting for toast. What a marvelous plan, don’t you agree!
completely marvelous!
