I once got rear-ended by a lady (my car was totaled) who told me two things as we were waiting for the cops that I will never forget:
"I just got my new glasses prescription, but I'm not wearing them today."
"I wasn't supposed to be driving my husband's truck. We don't have to let the cops know it's my husband's truck, right?"
The cops got informed. I got a new car.
Reminds me of the time I was rear ended and the guy told me it was because he was playing candy crush.
I might have kept the second thing to myself depending on why she wasn't supposed to be driving it. Though, it's not like she can keep what happened from her husband.
Insurance fraud.
Some insurance won't insure on certain vehicles unless people within the household sign an affidavit saying they will not be the ones driving it, usually based on their previous history. Seeing as she didn't want the cops to know, I'd guess it's something along those lines.
How have people not heard of toaster ovens?
With that said... I don't have one, maybe I should get one lol
Fun fact, if you turn a toaster sideways you can use them to make quesadillas.
This works about 90% of the time.
And other 10% of the time you get to watch smokin' hot firemen
Good for reheating pizza too
This is 100% bullshit. My mom lit the toaster on fire doing this with pizza
They said 90%, your mom was just part of the lucky 10%!
My partner did the same thing... with a quesadilla.
Were the sides of the toaster made of metal or plastic?
Both, I think. Iirc the outside was a plastic shell that clipped to the metal toaster. It caught fire when the overfilled tortilla started dripping cheese onto the heating coil.
I don't know if I was more upset about the fire, losing a toaster, or not having a succulent quesadilla dinner.
Do not do this. Toasters are not made to be used sideways. At best you’ll melt the probably plastic sides of your toaster, at worse you’ll burn your house down.
at worse you’ll burn your ~~house~~ dorm down.
Why would your toaster have plastic?
The sides of my, and most budget modern toasters are made of plastic
At best... You'll melt the plastic sides of your toaster AND make a fine quesadilla.
Win in my book.
I didn't say it was a good idea.
it was an ideia nonetheless
