...that this isn't Angryfied Tuesday, but dadgummit, The Guy Who Burns Toast did it AGAIN. And this time he had little thin grubby split sausage links on the toast.
I never really take notice of people who walk by in the hallway, and so he manages to sneak by and load up the toaster oven outside the door with combustibles (thankfully, no paper--lately), and then he LEAVES. Goes shuffling to the bathroom (he's advanced in years and has numerous health problems, meaning both locomotion and peeing take forever), then he comes back after the flames have died down, seemingly astonished that his toast burnt.
I caught a whiff of scorch and before I could get up and run out to the hallway, there were already gray curls of smoke coming up out of the toaster. I opened it up then shut off the timer/power switch, but by then, the unpleasant smell of incineration was all over the entire floor.
"Whew!" he said, as he gathered his meal and walked back to his office.
Yeah, you could say that.
