Flying Toast, Redux
Some may recall the post on the B**** Blog way back when when I described the mysteries of rye toast that flies out of my Super Toaster with force significant enough that it lands halfway across the floor. There is a new development. When one is toasting Oat Bran bread, but decides to only toast one piece rather than two because one is getting a late start and lunch will be arriving soon enough that two pieces are not required, the one piece of toast does not have sufficient mass in order to create the requisite resistance needed to overcome the powers of the Super Toaster. Not only will the one piece burn quicker, but it will fly out as if it is actual rye toast. But I swear to you, and I'm not making this up, I caught it in midair, prior to the crash landing, and with one swift motion I was able to gently place it back in its proper toast cradle while I finished making my oatmeal.
The Super Toaster did not defeat me this morning.

You must demonstrate that you are the Alpha Toaster. Then and only then shall it obey your will, grasshopper.
(I recognize that I am mixing my pop culture references, but I'm okay with that.)
you're saying this thing only freaks on rye toast?
Indeed, Smussy, it is the rye toast and only rye toast that is launched into the stratusphere of my kitchen only to plummet to a crumby death on my kitchen floor, time and time again. Well, only rye toast except when it is a single piece of oat bran toast that thinks it is a rye.
And it is clear that SOMETHING is awry here.
stratusphere?
stratosphere.
