A TWO PACK!!

Today's woot.com item is a 2-pack of toasters. I have no idea why I find this amusing, but I DO. If it was just one toaster, then sure, fine. But it's not just one. It's two. It's a 2-pack.


I don't see this package deal as being equal to a four-slice toaster. And I will tell you why. This 2-pack would occupy two outlets. See my logic? Clear as strawberry wine (I don't know what that means). I don't have a ton of outlets in the kitchen. My counter isn't made of outlets! That would be inconvenient, postmodern, and dangerous. (band name: postmodern and dangerous. postmodern and the dangers. Danger and the Postmoderns. The Postmoderns. bingo).

I know what you're saying to yourself. You are saying "a 2-pack of toasters? I don't buy anything without a little input from leslie14." Well, a little input you shall have.

Not a true bagel slot, eh? (band name: BagelSlot). As a person who eats bagels, a bagel eater, this is good to know. I can picture myself now, staring sadly at my two toasters, untoasted bagels in hand, and naught to be done but weep. I don't know toaster mechanics. I don't know if there's a reason why your standard slot doesn't accomodate a bagel. It seems like an afront to bagelites. On the other hand, if these bad boys can make short work of a Toaster Struedel, as leslie14 clearly implies, then I may have to give serious consideration to a purchase. At the moment, I have a toaster oven, which isn't quite a toaster, not nearly an oven. I fits all manner of toastables, but it is slow. The wait for a toaster-waffle is often agonizing.

I've thought it over. I will not purchase the 2-pack of toasters. I'm glad I talked that one out.
