I'm afraid my Toaster is going to kill me...literally

every time I stick a fork in it shocks me. I mean big *ZAP! shock, not just your garden variety little static *snap*. Like painfully shocks me.

LOL :P

1. Try holding a bigger fork and standing in a puddle of water.
You'll get a bigger shock, but only once.

:evilgrin:

7. You know what, asthmaticeog
I was just trying to have a little copy cat fun. I'm sorry if this struck a little to close to home for you, maybe a bad childhood experience with metal objects and electricity. So, if you didn't find it funny, thats OK. I guess i will try harder next time to reach your high comedic standards. Until then try to leave your negativity on that side of your modem, thanks

8. You know what, Dying Eagle
I was just trying to have a little snarky fun. I'm sorry if this struck a little to close to home for you, maybe a bad childhood experience with a competent humorist and a well-constructed put-down. So, if you found it overly wounding, thats OK. I guess i will try harder next time to pander to your low copycat standards. Until then try to leave your defensiveness on that side of your modem, thanks

Hey, you're right - copycatting IS fun! :hi:
