Toaster Burns The Day's Weather Forecast Onto Bread

September 26, 2012 / and she comes spilling crumbs on the bed and i shake my head -- it's only the giving that makes you what you are, bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow there'll be sun, breakfast, burning things, concept, i love toast, i smell toast, rain or shine, sure why not, the sun will come out tomorrow, toaster, weather

This is Jamy. Jamy is a conceptual toaster designed by Nathan Brunstein that burns a one-picture image of the day's forecast into your bread, along with the high and low temperatures for the day. It's probably at least twice as accurate as the weather app on my phone, and twice as useful since you can eat it afterwards. Oh shi-shi, looks like it's raining blackberry preserves today! *drops toast on floor* Dammit, that was my last piece too. Well, the last GOOD piece anyway. *considers digging heel out of the trash* "Don't do it, GW." Fine, but I'm gonna be cranky until lunch.

Hit the jump for a bunch more shots in case the concept is zooming over your head.

Thanks to PYY, who agrees weather forecasts are just another conspiracy the government uses to exercise control over the populous.

    Some "geniuses" at MIT have developed a computerized toothpaste dispenser that mixes a different tasting toothpaste in accordance with the day's weather. I swear -- what will they think of next? SPOILER: some kind of stupid f***ing robot. The toothpaste is called "Tastes Lik... / Continue →
  • Watch Your Bread Brown: A See-Thru Toaster
    December 29, 2009
    Let's face it: the problem with modern toasting technology is that it doesn't use lasers. A far less significant problem is that you can't see how burnt your bread is getting until it's a f***ing shingle. Enter Le Toaster Vision from Magimix. Despite its toaster moniker, Le ... / Continue →

    I don't see this going much further than a concept, if it did I still wouldn't want one, the name may cause confusion as well.

    africa's thinking "wtf"

  • I hate burnt toast.

    It only does one piece so you don't get confused by tomorrows forecast.

    LMFAO not the band, the action.

  • A "conceptual toaster" can only make conceptual toast. Let me know when I can put actual butter on it, then I'll be interested.

  • this is fine but in the UK it's just going to be sad all the time with a big raincloud on it!

  • The information is very interesting. I just saw it the first time. Thanks for sharing this.

  • BillGatesIsYourDaddy

    I thought the desire for toast was to NOT burn it.

  • ZomBBombeR
