Okay I’m done with people going “swords are superior” or “why would you use a scythe!?!?”
Or even the dreaded “scissors are so much better than knifes”, can we settle the score once and for all, by all posting the positive and negatives of tools (keeping in mind their current and original purpose)

I’ll start, coffee machines:

+; makes wake up juice, quick and easy, some tell the time, make other hot beverages, sell really well, consistent taste, don’t top up the water often, easy to clean. 8 total.

-; facilitates an addiction, is sharp, makes scalding hot liquid, makes a loud noise, some cups don’t fit, mediocre coffee. 6 total.

superiority is dependent on context of usage for the tool.

A scythe is better for cutting grass than sword, but a sword is better for stabbing people than a scythe.

Scissor are better for snipping than a knife and a knife is better for cutting than scissors.

Tsar bomba

+; it makes a huge deadly explosion! Very cute indeed!

-; kills most lifeforms in a 35 kilometres radius!

As they say bigger is in some cases better! Imagine the huge mushroom it makes!

The coffee machine that tells time and brews things that aren't coffee isn't a coffee machine, it's a kitchen gadget. As much as kitchen gadgets are convenient, I can't stand them. If I want to tell time, I wear a watch. If I want to brew something hot, I set a kettle on the stove and pour it in a press for coffee or a cup for tea. If I want to open a breech and load plastic in a hole, I'd buy a shotgun.

Speaking of which,

Shotgun:

Pros: Simple in operation, affordable (in America), largely unregulated, useful for predators of both the two- and four-legged variety

Cons: Loud, noisy

A loli dragon:

+: cute, stronk, kawaii~, has cool powers, can fly, very cute, has tail (a sensitive one that when you touch, she’ll go “Iyaa~” on you), perfect defense, can protect you from FBI, can use magical breath attack, did I mention cute?, can transform into a gigantic mythical creature, and many other benefits…

-: her cuteness can distract you, her cuteness can make you lose more blood than you realize, her cuteness can make you question your moral compass, her powers are too cool that you can only look at them in envy (but you don‘t think ill of her because… well, she just too cute), her tail can get you addicted, her dragon form can be terrifying if you’re chicken enough.
