ALERT! As of last night, Zunes appear to be failing at an alarming rate. This might be easily written off as a predictable glitch in a product fraught with problems and bad marketing and, oh, jeez, just not being well-thought out from the git go (also, brown).
OR, it might be a canary in the coal mine, a harbinger of doom, woe, pestilence and plague.
Not that we really needed one.
STAY ALERT! If you see ANY of your household products failing – toasters, microwave ovens, French coffee presses, what have you – please post in the comments!
My Itty Bitty Booklight is missing. I’m concerned that it may be being used by mole men who see the coming economic doomocalypse as their chance to strike against the surface dwellers. Should I call Homeland Security?
YES. Don’t wait. Act now. If it turns out it was under your bed all along, you can just say “Oopsie-doodle! My bad, Department of Homeland Security!” They will *totally* understand. That kind of thing happens all the time. Better to be safe than be up to our armpits in mole men.
My dishwasher doesn’t seem to be getting things clean. Can someone let me know the procedures for going to DEFCON 2?
My blender fills me with a sense of unbearable ennui and the ineffable sadness of existence. Is this normal, or should I start working on a macrame noose with which to hang myself?
Umm…my Itty Bitty Booklight….also missing….
Dang my remote just broke…should i be concerned?
Our Waffle Iron failed this past Sunday morning, 25 January, right in the middle of waffle-making. (We had to make waffle-batter-pancakes with the remaining batter; they taste different than regular pancakes, by the way.) Can mole-men steal waffle-iron-ness from a Waffle Iron, or is this a sign of our appliances going on strike?
