Today, I had to explain to my father why it isn't a good idea to shove a metal knife into the toaster when trying to get at a small piece of toast. This man is 45-years-old and has a PhD. FML

Hey there, OP here! For those of you asking, he has a PhD in biology. He's done crazier and much more dangerous things than this, trust me. If you guys have any other questions, feel free to ask!

A PhD can't give you common sense.

He would have had an electrifying epiphany if all had gone as planned. You ruined it!

Just because someone has book sense doesn't mean they have common sense.

Using a knife to get stuff out of a toaster is crazy! A fork would be way more practical.

Not a PhD in electricity .... or common sense for that matter

It's not a bad idea if he unplugs it first.
