Repurposed: Cuisinart Poweredge 700 Blender
The ideal combination of power and performance, the Cuisinart PowerEdge 700 Blender features the newly improved TurboEdge blade designed to blend multiple fragments of language and thereby reconcile contradictory desires and/or ideologies with maximum efficiency. When placed on the dinner table, the extra large tempered-glass blending jar functions as a speech-receptacle into which two opposing parties simultaneously articulate their individual viewpoints, such as, “I love you!” and “You call this chicken?” Once the lid is secured and the TurboEdge blade activated, the potentially conflicting sentiments are merged. The difference is split, so to speak, and as soon as the blade is deactivated and the lid re-opened, a fully unified and entirely benign utterance resonates harmoniously from within the blending jar: “You! I call you this: Love Chicken!” Why? Because we believe it is the inalienable right of every significant other to experience the intense and complete satisfaction of being addressed via his/her own TurboEdgeGenerated™ pet name. And that’s not all! Now, at last, even the anguished ideologue is offered the comforting prospect of clarity, as into the blending jar he reads his beloved book of Proverbs and the confounding book of Ecclesiastes and then, out of the blending jar, bellowed like a cherub’s mighty roar, sounds a singular voice of truth, singing, sweetly singing:
“To increase knowledgethe wise increase heartache
To increase knowledge
the wise increase heartache
To increase knowledge
increase heartache
To increase knowledge
increase heartache
Increase knowledge
increase heartache
increase heartache
increase heartache…”
