I came home from work the other night to find my boyfriend in the living room playing videogames. Next to the toaster.
Me: "What are you doing?"
Him: "Playing Crackdown."
Me: "Why is the toaster on the living room floor?"
Him: "I was going to toast a bagel, but the toaster caught on fire."
Me: "Fire?!"
Him: "Well, not really....a little bit. I pushed the bagel down and the instead of heating up, a puff of smoke just came up. I unplugged it and thought I could just leave it, but the little fire kept getting bigger, so I brought it into the living room so I could keep an eye on it."
Me: "You couldn't stay in the kitchen and watch it?"
Him: "I wanted to play Crackdown."
Me: "Oh."
Him: "You need a new toaster."
So, hopefully Santa will bring me a toaster. :-p

There are a few inaccuracies in your retelling:
The toaster didn't continue to burn after I unplugged it, I was just worried it might continue to burn after I unplugged it.
Ok, not so much an inaccuracy as needing clarification...
Toast!
that is such a tom story. i can see him saying "but i wanted to play crackdown" as if YOU are the crazy one.
