HCB sent over this picture of the Darth Vader toaster that actually burns an image of the Dark Lord of the Sith into your toast. I recall a breakfast cereal called Force existed when I was a kid back in England. I guess the two would have made a highly symbolic pairing (along with some marmalade, dairy products, and a bloody Mary.)
The capacity to burn images into toast also opens a weird wealth of possibilities. (And shuts down some damned absurd sales on eBay.) Elvis, Jesus, Batman, Cartman, a marijuana leaf, the Virgin Mary, and the President Elect could all become a brand on bread. The nation eats its idols and I worry about the symbolism.

I guess this puts a whole new spin on being "toast."
WV is "dinessel"
I'll not speak about a toast in my country because last time we had a problem how to pull our premier minister from the Bush's ass and now we mourn him (he's still in bruises and full of shit in each of his openings) and everything smells bad.
But imagine a toast divided in let's say 6, or rather 8 (more is better!) images:
1st image: President during his inauguration.
2nd. bla-bla-bla
3-7th: the same
8th: people running after him
with batons reinforced with nails at the end (for each case!).
Almost like a movie, a toast-movie!
ooo, how about the TARDIS! or, even better, daleks!!
Or a shrinking "$" sign ?
Word verification is "spLESSi"
I remember Force. It was quite nice cereal, but had lame-ass, archaic packaging and a really fucking lame mascot called Sonny Jim.
