tasty toast

old advertisements never cease to make me laugh or just plain amaze me. they're usually pretty cool, pretty cheesy or pretty eyebrow raising. this 40's ad for a toaster is funny because it would NEVER fly in 2008. 
it's a little hard to make out what's going on, but there's a couple peacefully eating toast at the table while the couple above them are in the midst of chaos because the toast is burnt. the last line of the first paragraph reads, "don't tempt masculine tempers with burnt toast!" 

are you kidding me???
