Today when I was making breakfast, I was waiting for my toast to be done. I got sick of waiting and pushed the button. My toast then shot up and back down on the other side of the toaster... I stared in awe for about five minutes. I don't think this could be repeated. Ever. MLIA

That is quite possibly the coolest toaster story I have ever heard.

Posts like these make me wish I had one of those poppy-toasters... I only have a toaster oven :(

I am stuck with a microwave. Just a microwave. =(
 
[ - ]  chippaGood: 8Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
Only a microwave? But how do you make toast? :( I am getting my brother a toaster for Christmas (maybe). :)
 
[ - ]  birdloverGood: 4Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
Aww that must stink... maybe, like chippa's brother, you can get a toaster for Christmas :3
 
[ - ]  BlowOffGood: 4Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
I can't make toast. I have to go to the dining hall for that. And I can't make Mac and Cheese either because I think mac and cheese in the microwave is gross. EDIT: I would love that but campus policy dictates that we can't have anything with an exposed burner or flame in our rooms. Too bad I snuck in a George Foreman grill anyway! (:

Haha that's awesome XP

I like toaster ovens better than plain toasters. Don't hurt me!

BlowOff i agree on how gay it is we can't have microwaves or anything in our dorm rooms. I hate that, i would sneak something in but our RA actually DOES room inspections :(
 
[ - ]  evlbb2Good: 1Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
I believe you folks could make toast with any sort of flaming object. I used a Bunsen burner a few times before.
 
[ - ]  MobileGood: 11Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
By then, your toast was probably cold, and you had a decision to make: wait longer, eat cold, or toast again and risk burning?
 
[ - ]  teacuppyGood: 6Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
That decision gets me every time.
 
[ - ]  cleotuesdayGood: 5Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
5 minutes?? what a waste of perfectly good toast!!
 
[ - ]  JordaanBrownGood: 13Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
Not to go off subject here, but has anyone else noticed that the words of the day has been 'eggs' for several days now?
 
[ - ]  birdloverGood: 10Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
I've been wondering that too. I wonder if it's going to be like that for 12 days, and then the word dozen comes up. Lol, I dunno.
 
[ - ]  MoonShoesPotterGood: 2Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
We were talking about that earlier Bird. We think we're on... day five or six? I dunno. Let's wait and see. ;]
 
[ - ]  birdloverGood: 2Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
Really? Wow, I just thought of the idea off the top of my head while I was replying XD
 
[ - ]  danny542Good: 5Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
as long as we are being off topic, i want to share something on my mind. so everyone is always complaining about current posts not being average enough anymore. i just went to best of this year, went to the very last few pages, and all of the posts were extremely average. but they have NO comments!
 
[ - ]  jellobeanGood: 3Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
Maybe MLIA just really likes eggs. I know I do.
 
[ - ]  BossZefronGood: 7Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
Eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs

Cow was for like, two weeks.
 
[ - ]  RainiGood: 1Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
does the owner of the site manually change it each time? cause then we know that he/she doesnt go on every day..
 
[ - ]  Rawkfist13Good: 1Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
That's interesting, danny. I was thinking about it, and while it's an extremely awesome toaster story, I've never seen it happen. Would one argue that this story isn't average? Mehhhhhh. Well, I really like to think it's little stories like these that don't happen to most people that make our lives totally average. It's amazing how easily amazed we are at things =] Our need for those random stories totally makes our lives average, too. I didn't realize that about the last few pages. We should change that, eh? =]
 
[ - ]  ClararioGood: 1Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
well this site is a parody of fml. so its not necessarily average stuff but funny or cool stuff that has happened to you instead of crappy
 
[ - ]  Rawkfist13Good: 0Bad: 12 years, 7 months ago
@ Clarario: Oh my goodness! How can you say this site isn't for average things? Do you know what you type in when you come to this site? URL is mylifeisAVERAGE.com and it says, "MyLifeIsAverage is a place to share your everyday mediocrity. It is a place to post the mundane things in your life, and read about what makes life normal for other people." Notice... NOT mylifeisFUNNY.com or mylifeisCOOL.com Shame on you.

That is one badass toaster.

Don't ever throw that toaster away. It's special.

I bet if we submitted it to Mythbusters, they might do it. :D

Yeah! and OP, you are so lucky!
 
[ - ]  ashleighs-life-is-averageGood: 1Bad: 22 years, 7 months ago
this happened to me once too!
 
[ - ]  tompom2Good: 9Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
I think that might have happened to me, sort of. I had two pieces of toast in, and when it popped they both flew out and landed perfectly on top of each other on top of the toaster. However, I didn't recognise the importance of this at the time because I was about five. Oh well.
 
[ - ]  teacuppyGood: 3Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
Once a lifetime opportunity.

In my experience, "I don't think this could be repeated" classifies something as UNaverage...
 
[ - ]  lettertjesGood: 0Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
True. But the fact that it's about a toaster does make it too average to be posted anywhere else. Except perhaps twitter. But I don't read twitter, and I wouldn't want to have missed this.
 
[ - ]  Rawkfist13Good: 4Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
That is what I originally thought, but after thinking about it, it's not the act that was average, but the act makes our lives average. Thus, "Average."

NOT AVERAGE AT ALL.
 
[ - ]  orangeturtlesGood: 0Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
Sorry to say this everyone, but this did happen to me once. And it was awesome.
 
[ - ]  kaschlickerGood: 0Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
That is freakin amazing. Kinda like the time I bumped the spoon leaning against the oatmeal bowl and it did a flip INTO the bowl. Incredible.
 
[ - ]  PeacheszGood: 0Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
that is awesome!! my grandmother's toaster used to shoot the toast into the sink. it was pretty cool
 
[ - ]  Darkcloud305Good: 1Bad: 02 years, 7 months ago
As awesome as this is. not average. Doesn't belong on this site. but sick story man.
 
[ - ]  lizbombGood: 0Bad: 02 years, 6 months ago
omg! okay so I fully just made an account to say this, but that actually happened to me today! no lie omg haha that's so weird I wish I had taped it because it was amazing :)
 
[ - ]  trevormaloneGood: 0Bad: 02 years, 6 months ago
ooh i always thought this site was supposed 2 be ironic saying that these things are average.. hahaaa lmao
 
[ - ]  FelixCulpaGood: 0Bad: 02 years, 6 months ago
Hmm... considering I'm a physics student, it very well could be done...
 
[ - ]  Crome267Good: 0Bad: 22 years, 6 months ago
Im sure if that toast could talk, it would've probably said "Hold up bitch, im not finished" as it went flying in to the other side. http://ihatejade.com/?id=jcwjowgt2rhw6mh97uux9j17zx2gdq
 
[ - ]  JayesterGood: 0Bad: 02 years, 6 months ago
This happened to me once with a bagel. I was able to toast the other side without ever having to touch it!
