1. Heh heh heh...from the tragic to the farcical

Oy vey.

What's next, a Dzhokhar Tsarnaev fashion line?

2. That's crazy!

You can always find those at a thrift store for a few bucks. I mean, if you're going to blow it up, why not get a used one?

3. You mean from the Donald Trump associated retail establishment.

So what role did Donald Trump play in the Boston Marathon bombings?

7. What did the Donald know, and when did he stop knowing it?

And what did he do to stop it???

11. Prosecution cares

Proving they bought the cookers is one more proverbial nail.

8. New ones are different from the older models.

Maybe they needed a newer type model.

The new ones are supposed to be safer for cooking.

10. My grandmother had one of the very old models very heavy and very thick.

I remember when I was a little girl (40+ years ago) if she had something cooking in it she would always tell me to stay away from the stove because it could explode.

Years later when I was out on my own (and she didn't cook much anymore) she asked me if I wanted to take it home with me.

I said "NO Thank You - please throw it away!"

She had warned me so many times about how it could explode that I was scared to death of that pot!

I know that they make safer ones nowadays, but I still can not bring myself to purchase one.

13. The first one my mom used was like that

She recently replaced it...after that old horse failed, not in an explosive fashion.

If I had to cook beans, I would, but I am mostly not a fan of a vessel that cooks under pressure.

They still, albeit rarely, fail in a spectacular way

14. When I was a little kid staying a friend's house, a pressure coker did blow up.

We had just left the kitchen, and the damn thing blew.

The lid made a whole in a wall and hot chicken stew was everywhere.

It was loud.

You couldn't give me one now, no matter how safe.

15. My grandmother had one of those kind too and told me to stay way way from it. I remember she would

remove some kind of valve off the top of it when it was thru. My grandmother would use a long metal barbeque type fork to remove that valve thing. I was scared of that pressure cooker, never wanted one and never have had one.

9. Last week, in a major faux pas ...

Macy's weekly advertisement featured pressure cookers, prominently, on sale for $19.95 ...

They were hammered on Facebook ... That ad ran nationally, and people were pissed ....
