I needed a kitchen timer because the one I had was busted. I think I twisted it too hard. This time I wanted something that did not need twisting. Something digital would be good.
So I went to Daiso. I did not know which one to pick so I settled on this green teddy bear shaped one.
Obviously I can't read Japanese and I could not understand the instructions.
Bah! I would just have to figure it out myself when I noticed this warning.
"There is careful use and handling of your backside". Uiks??
Well....heh..heh...
I finally figured out the timer. Hold the S button down and the press the M button. That will reset to zero. Then just press the M button to set minutes and S button to set seconds. Then press start. Obviously nothing to do with my backside >.<
LOL.
ReplyDeleteCute Janglish. :P
Yeah, I'm still wondering what it actually meant hah..hah..
Deletegreen bear is cute. hope it lasts a long time.
ReplyDeleteMe too.
Deletegreat purchase! specially as it came with a challenge and you successfully sussed it all out by just looking at the backside! I don't even know how to use timer in my kitchen....I just count my heartbeat each time ;P
ReplyDeletehah..hah... I used to put a bowl of water in the microwave and use it as a timer >.<
DeleteI use my mobile phone's timer, can save RM5.90, hehe :P
ReplyDeleteClever, you :D
DeleteI like those cups, plates and bowls sold at Daiso, very nice
ReplyDeleteYes, me too. Sometimes I can't resist buying.
DeleteMaybe I should get one too - I just look at the clock on the wall.
ReplyDeleteI used to do that and sometimes I forget to check back.
DeleteLol. Me too. I must get a timer for my kitchen.
ReplyDeleteIt is very a very helpful gadget.
DeleteWakakaka! Thanks for the instruction, in case i want to get the same timer from Daiso.
ReplyDeletehee..hee.. so far it has served me well.
DeleteSince both my convection oven and induction cooker already have preset timers in them to tell me when my food will be ready, I've never really needed a timer. I guess I don't have to handle my backside then...hehe! :D
ReplyDeleteLOL! I needed the timer mostly when I boil eggs to make sure they are not overcooked.
Delete:D :D I've used many timers before and now I set the timer on my mobile phone.
ReplyDeleteThat is very practical :)
DeleteStraight up competition on the worst ever English translations between China and Japan hahaha!
ReplyDeleteYeah LOL!
DeleteHahaaaa... I wonder what and which backside it meant... Anyway, smart of you to figure out how it is used... I think I would be scratching my head (backside?) whole night.. Lol...
ReplyDeleteLOL! You made me laugh! Scratch backside. wahahaha!!
DeleteHa! Ha! Backside? Lol.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I use my mobile phone to set the timer :)
That's so practical :)
DeleteUsually i also look at the clock...
ReplyDeleteI tend to forget to look again...
DeleteThat's a cute timer, but why don't you just use a timer on your phone?
ReplyDeleteYou are right, I could use my phone but I am somehow very technically challenged heh..heh..
DeleteAt my age, I definitely need a timer. I find it very useful helpful!
ReplyDeleteMe too hah..hah.. I tend to forget to check back my watch and I overcook my eggs :(
DeleteI have one Japanese client and all his emails would send rolling on the floor laughing so hard. Poor them!! Why can't they hire translators to help with the product guides?
ReplyDeletehah..hah... I wonder too but it gives us a good laugh. So it's OK :D
DeleteBackside of the timerlah, PH ^_^ Must handle with care, nanti kalau you jatuhkan barang from Daiso, backsidenya oochhh... langsung tak boleh guna lagi. Tapi never mindlah, just buy a new one at Daiso; only RM5.90 ^_^
ReplyDeleteEh, dah macam brand ambassador pulak I nih. Hahaha!
Pandai you interpret, MD :) I love going to Daiso. I always end up buying something when I leave hah..hah..
