WARM NOT YOUR HEAD WATER MICROWAVE UNIT INTERNAL

As is my wont, I occasionally purchase items of a useful and pleasing nature. You know, like Lyn >:)

And, like Lyn, the instructions are sometimes a little on the, shall we say, interpretive dance level.

However.

Yesterday, oh, yesterday my friends, we reached a level of English-as-a-guideline-only-ness that even Samuel Goldwyn would have viewed with pride. I don't know what it'll be yet, but I'm bound to have something cool kicking about the house I can give away as a prize for the first person who can tell me what these instructions relate to. It's a personal item, and it's blue. That's all the hint you get :)

    I'm gonna go with an electric toothbrush. My first thought was a Christmas tree, but I knew that couldn't be right!

    I say crazy LED keychain light, as the instructions were so clear they actually used it here:

    Wow. Does it work as described? How does the housing LOGO taste?

    Well, that's got to go down as amongst the lamest competitions ever. Serves me right for doing something other than telling semi-amusing stories baout my kids :)

    You're absolutely right, of course, Chris. Send me your address and I'll post you something cool from my soon to be spring-cleaned House o' Fun

    Well, I feel like I cheated, using the interweb, and all. The main reason I googled the instructions was that the first couple of ideas I had regarding something that all of those crazy instructions could apply to took me to the naughty place...

    Still, I'll send you my address just so I have a reason to send you a return parcel in time for Christmas.

    You know, used in the right way (read: the utterly wrong way), it can still take you to the naughty place. It'll just be lit up when you get there >:)
