My fancy new toaster went kaput, so I decided to replace it, got in the elevator and the elevator stalled mid-ride between two floors. Elevators and toasters have been around for several decades yet never seem to work right. That got me thinking about the designer genes thread. If they can't get toasters and elevators right...

      It was firefighters who opened the elevator.

          Rubbish. I just put two slices of bread in the elevator and sent it to the top floor. When it came back down the bread didn't show the slightest hint of being toasted.

            Shows how much you know. The bread went to the top floor, and got toasted on the way. After they got off in the "Jelly and jam" floor, two new slices got on the elevator, and that's what you saw when the door opened. You can't tell the difference between your own bread, and foreign bread?

              Both, wrong, l put the toast in the lift and when it descends the toast, bends around the observer and warps space, time which in turn creates a stable wormhole to Mars!

              That way my fluffy bunny minions, can enjoy buttered toast!



              PS l am talking crap at the moment, since it is 35 digrees here, and probably 90 humidity! I am seeking refuge in the local library to get out of this stinking heat!

            It's definitely a conspiracy theory. Has to be. Not sure what the heck it's a conspiracy to do exactly.........but that's not important as long as we know there's a plot against people that eat toast and don't use the stairs.

      Yes, thing about toasters is, they can work the first time, but have kittens the second, doesn't matter if sensors or timers are used, the temp, the first time is different the next, if used one after another!

      I use the grill, cuts out on all that toaster nonsence!
