And instead of paying 20 bucks for a toaster, these smart toaster allow you to spend several hundred on it instead! I just looked it up, and this isn't an exaggeration. The prices i saw ranged from about 200 - 500 dollars
Complete lunacy. A toaster... really... a toaster?

If I found the right one, it’s this…
$400 fucking dollars for a toaster??? No… Just… No. Fuck off. I hate this timeline so much. Marty Mcfly needs to go unfuck whatever it is he fucked up, because if I see his ass and he hasn’t, I’m kicking him in the balls so hard his kids feel it.

This is just the beginning with toaster tech. Just wait for them to stop working with Unauthorized Bread.

If you were dumb enough to buy a toaster with a touch screen then I refuse to feel any level sympathy, you’re an idiot and you deserve to suffer.

I’d rather take an electrical cable off a fan, strip the insulation and very carefully plug it in and lay some bread on th exposed copper.

Too many people trying to reinvent the wheel by incorporating smart technology into everything. If it work, don’t change it.

“It pays for itself after 3,480 slices of toast!”
Breaks or becomes unsupported after your 100th slice
