This is a question Crap Gadgets

We wanted a monkey butler and bought one off eBay. Imagine our surprise when we found it was just an ordinary monkey with rabies. Worse: It had no butler training at all. Tell us about your duff technology purchases.

Thanks to Moonbadger for the suggestion

Me too
But I just love the idea of Moon Monkey getting irate at the toaster because it never occured to him that it was designed for the bread to go in sideways.

better than my mate's toaster
she had to shove a trowel down the side to get the lever to hold down

Sorry, doesn't work
Since normal sliced bread is not far off square, you still get an untoasted strip along one side.

And on some toasters, putting it in sideways means that it jams when it tries to pop up. Because the designers apparently haven't ever seen any actual bread.

My toaster...
(4 slice jobbie), will take 1 slice upright and 1 sideways - and THAT'S sometimes liable to jam when done.
