Today, my kitchen nearly burned down because the fire alarm didn't detect the plumes of smoke wafting through the kitchen. This is the same alarm that wails when I use the toaster. FML

It was letting you know your toast was done. Evidently your kitchen wasn't done toasting yet.

Seriously, to the OP, you may need to relocate that alarm. Sometimes the location is a little far off, and it leads to unusual problems. My uncle is a firefighter, so he would always tell people this.

Might be time to stop cooking if you create "plumes of smoke".

Well if you are burning toast daily, and setting things on fire, might mean it's time to stop leaving things cooking in the kitchen.

No offense, but I'm not sure a new fire detector would do OP any good. How could you not notice your house nearly burning down? The smell alone would set off my own internal alarm. I suggest staying out of the kitchen unless under supervision.

Sorry about your kitchen, OP. My shower sets my smoke detector off- very aggravating!!

Well see the problem is, the alarm is in cahoots with the toaster plotting against u every step of the way. Ur smoke detector is probably going to sit in the corner of your room and watch u sleep tonight. Again

I can't run my stove and oven at the same tiime cuz mine goes off
