Snake

I now have a brand new “fuzzy logic” rice cooker that has the ability to make perfect rice every time. In addition to fancy electronics, simplified user interface, and (strangely) the ability to play a children’s song whenever you turn it on, it has a retractable power cord … just like my mom’s vacuum cleaner had back in the early 80’s and snake tongues have had for one hundred million years. #cuttingedgetechnology

A retractable power cord! OMG I am so jealous.

I suspect the rice cooker's choice of tunes may offset the fun of the power cord.

I'm already researching if there are ways to hack it so it would play something less irritating from it's limited array of beeps.
