this is the third call i've been on this year revolving around a toaster. here's a psa, and especially to you college kids: use your toaster as intended. it's not there for grilled cheese, not there to light cigarettes, and don't lay them on their sides, kay?

well, you know. desperate, inexperienced, and hungry don't mix well. everyone's gotta learn somehow.

some just get stuck with the short straw. a really short one.

sorry about your neighbor's place.

Yes... suddenly having to cook for oneself may be too much of a shock for some people to handle. Though you would think most should have enough common sense to avoid the particularly dangerous methods.

And they bring it upon themselves. It's still a miracle they have any apartment left at all, with how many alarms they've set off.

yeah, well, that's ignorance for you. few things more dangerous than assuming how something works

the alarms are a good thing. if you ever stop hearing them, be concerned. and give your neighbor a swift kick in the ass for me if they turned the alarms OFF.

I will say, at least it sounds like most of these incidents involved people putting actual *food* in toasters rather than forks or the like. Still incredibly careless, but at least not completely moronic.

Oh, believe me. A kick in the rear will be the least of their worries if I were to find out that they'd been so irresponsible.

well, no. the cigarette one was pretty stupid.

i like you. you make my job easier.

...Yes, that is the exception. I'm not sure how that would even work, ignoring the inherent dangers in doing so.

Well, their apartment is right next to ours, so if we didn't keep them from burning their apartment down, ours would be next to go. So it's primarily for self-preservation.

that's fair. who's the alarm-friendly lout i've got to keep an eye out for?

Makoto Naegi and Daisuke Niwa are the neighbors in question. But I hope that they never do anything stupid enough to seriously require your services, for both our sakes.

right. thanks for the heads up. and your self-preservation instincts.
