No, this isn’t the all-bovine version of Total Recall. Today it was announced that Toro would recall snowblowers and lawnmowers because of a fire risk. That’s weird, because I thought it was designed intentionally as a failsafe device to get the job done. You see, if your snowblower or lawnmower breaks down, at least it would start a fire, which could then finish the job of melting the snow or burning off all that unwanted grass. Wasn’t that the idea? I thought it was a brilliant design! But I guess some panty-waist had to go and ruin it just because it could burn down someone’s house or start a wildfire or whatever. Do you want to melt snow/get rid of grass or not? I mean, seriously: make up your mind! If you don’t care about getting the job done, then why bother doing it at all?
Here’s the story about the recall, for those of you who don’t actually want the job done:
