Zombie Toaster

Dualit 2 Slice NewGen White Toaster

Uniberp gives us an example of what our AI enhanced future is going to be like with this conversation from a UK website. New! Improved! Extra Stupid! Just about what you should expect.

But what the heck is a D2 VMH GB DUALIT TOASTER? Google-the-all-knowing knows, hence the above picture. Hand made in the UK with a hand made price, but if you use the code ZOMBIES, JC Penny will knock $30 off the price. Wait a minute, J C Penny is still in business? I thought they collapsed. Is this a Zombie company? Wikipedia knows, sort of. They have a long page in which the word "bankrupt" appears 24 times. Typical retail business in America for the last 50 years, up, down, bought, sold, shuffled and sorted. Hard to tell if there is anything in the current business related to the original, though they seem to still have a retail store at Washington Square, the local big-deal mall.
