I bet before Carlos moved to Night Vale he used to regularly reinvent really useless household appliances all the time.
Like ‘Hey check this out it looks like a regular umbrella but it’s also COMPLETELY FIREPROOF’
and everyone would be like ‘Carlos why the hell would anyone NEED a fireproof umbrella if it’s already raining seriously stick to science’
but in Night Vale everyones like ‘Aw man this is PERFECT for when it starts raining fire/gasoline/literal death’ and Carlos is just like ‘My time has come’
Carlos: I’ve made a toaster that can toast cellular phones.
Cecil: Marry me, you’re perfect, everything you do is perfect.
Carlos: You’re just saying that.
Night Vale citizen: Something seems to be wrong with my cellular device it is no longer crispy.
Carlos: Wha-?
Cecil: Carlos, the brilliant, beautiful scientist, has you covered!
Night Vale citizen: Thank you so much, sir!
Carlos: Well… urm… you’re welcome, ma'am.
