Resistance is Useless


My new coffee grinder came with an instruction booklet that included the warning: "Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism."



But did I pay heed? Unfortunately not. Instead I took this as a challenge.

And the result was humiliation and shame.


First I attempted to threaten the grinder with a cane but realized I was resorting to violence. And that will never do.


So I challenged the grinder to a gentlemanly game of Operation (The SpongeBob Squarepants edition!) and the grinder won every time!

"Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism."
