Dishwasher not functioning, scale on the blink. Nothing in my house is working right. So I went out today and bought all new dishes... and a brand new scale. A smart scale. Perhaps a too-smart scale... supposedly it measures body fat percentage, body water percentage, muscle mass, bone mass and even features something called a Daily CaloriePredictor™. Hmmmm... it doesn't say whether or not it tells you your weight...
Okay, I've read this three times and I still can't figure out how this hot mess of electronics works.
Waitaminute... I just realized that the owner's manual isn't in English. Why do I continue to shop at Grande Juan Carlos' Casa dé Bargains?
Okay, well maybe we'll just fire this sucker up and just push buttons until I figure it out... except I need a 9-volt battery and we don't seem to have any of those little square mamba jambas in the battery drawer. Also, we don't seem to have a battery drawer...
Luckily, I know where my wife Anita hides the 9-volt batteries...
There we go... this thing doesn't even need a battery. It apparently is just a device that emits an ear-piercing noise every time I cook...
You know, I read somewhere that a 9-volt battery contains roughly the same amount of kinetic energy as a bowl of Lucky Charms, but I'm not sure I believe that.
Okay, give me a week to figure this bad boy out and we'll be back in the game! And I'll have an update on my bone mass numbers!
