This would never work.

You're supposed to smoke the joint before you eat the Hot Pocket.

What dark magic makes a microwave cook a Hot Pocket in a single minute which you can then immediately eat? Or cooks it in a minute, period? Did the vomit extinguish the joint? Where do I buy capacitive marbles? So many questions.

Worth it for the drunk text.

I'm a moron and also I can't tell what the last domino was supposed to do. Set his alarm?

Couldn't sleep at all last night, so pulled an all nighter. Took a quick 90 minute nap. Arranged with a good friend to give me a wakeup call. Problem solved and not a whole day of setup either.

As in The Proud Robot, the idea is to build the thing when so drunk you can't remember what it's for when you sober up. The outcome is always better.
