I'd been looking for an office toaster for quite a while, and friend kindly offered me their extra Hello Kitty™ toaster. Imagine my surprise when I discovered the image of Japan's favorite feline imprinted on every slice.

By: Kevin Murphy (kcmrapidian) on September 21st, 2011 at 12:00 pm Does "extra Hello Kitty toaster" mean that your friend had an extra toaster that happened to be the Hello Kitty brand (literal and figurative), or that he/she had multiple Hello Kitty toasters? I like the idea that someone would love the Hello Kitty toaster so much that they would keep back-ups on hand in case one needed to go into the shop. I also like the concept of there being a Hello Kitty toaster repair shop.
