This morning when I pulled the start knob of the washing machine, all I got was a loud mechanical growl. Now in general, I'm a nice person, but I don't consider having household appliances growling at me as "acceptable behavior," especially after having just spent $300 to have it "fixed." Without really thinking about it, I smacked it out of frustration.Suddenly, I had water and no growling.
I've seen this phenomenon with dogs, but I didn't think it extended to other things. However, I guess we have had to establish our hierarchy here.
I am now Alpha Appliance.
Excuse me while I go smack my cell phone.

I'm not one for physical violence but wouldn't it be nice if some annoying people would respond that positively to a slap? :)
your dryer is haunted! It just likes messing with you!
