    The $12 Mr Coffee from Walmart has lasted 3 years at work, making 36 cups a day. It has an on/off switch, that is it....when it dies, we will replace it, with one that invariably be priced $11.50

    My cheapo coffee maker generally had a timer so it'll turn on and have me a fresh pot brewed just before my alarm goes off. So long as I have to do all of the other prep work to actually enable its coffee sorcery, voice commands are stoopid.

    I hope that's not a pot of coffee on the burner now. That looks like pondwater.

    @Sticks Calhoun: It looks like it is tea, actually, which could explain the lack of understanding of the whole coffee concept. Or perhaps it really is just a clock that is shaped like a coffee maker?

    This will be good, until Switzerland decides that you can't be mean to robots as well as plants.

    Someday we will look back at our infantilization of early robots as the reason why they rebelled and turned us into batteries.

    two marginalized demographics: the blind and the chronically rude


    If there's one thing we learned from "Curb Your Enthusiasm," it's that these aren't always mutually exclusive.

    "...if that human hovered by your bed and played a plastic recorder into you ear every morning at 7:30am."


    Make that 6:30am and you're talking about my kids.


    Well, if this alarm clock ignores your pleas for silence too, that is....

    @papaguru: @txpunk: Someone doesn't have pets. Their stomachs wake them up at about 3am, and they try to wake you up. If it doesn't work, they assume you're dead, and try to eat you.
