This comic shows a {{w|confusion matrix}} of the applicability of various household appliances to different tasks. Green indicates an excellent performance, yellow not ideal, but usable, and red dismal or destroyed. The diagonal is green as it shows the tasks done by the machines they are supposed to be performed by. See [[#Table|table]] below. The comic is similar to [[1890: What to Bring]] and [[2813: What To Do]], but those comics do not use yellow or another intermediate color. | This comic shows a {{w|confusion matrix}} of the applicability of various household appliances to different tasks.

β | + | Salmon can be easily {{w|Dishwasher salmon|cooked in a dishwasher}}, so it's marked "cooked", and thus "cook a frozen dinner" is only yellow on the dishwasher entry (and that's if plain salmon fillets are even part of the meal; what little fish commercially-prepared frozen dinners are built around (instead of being part of a recipe, as with tuna casserole) tends to be breaded white fish such as cod, mackarel, smelt, etc. for price and logistical reasons (retaining taste & firmness through the cooking, freezing, thawing & reheating processes)). | |
The stove/oven has three green as it can also cook a microwave frozen dinner, although slower, and can toast bread, again slower than the toaster. It is by far the machine that has the fewest red entries, only one, as it cannot wash clothes. It can also not clean dishes, but it might sterilize them, thus that entry is yellow. It may actually dry the clothes, but is liable to burn them and is therefore yellow. | The stove/oven has three green as it can also cook a microwave frozen dinner, although slower, and can toast bread, again slower than the toaster.
