    A smart egg tray. It was in fact quite stupid. Mainly purchased it because of how absurd it was.

    Main issues:

    • it was constantly wrong about how many eggs were in the tray
    • it was wrong about the eggs age.
    • it took 6AA batteries that only lasted a month at best.

      The egg that stays fresh for a few hundred years is kinda lame for an SCP

        I dunno, does it warp probability around it so that no matter what, the egg is always fresh? How far does the effect extend? Does it affect people or just physical interactions? If people ask these questions are they under the effect and contributing to the egg’s defense and therefore continued freshness?

      That really sounds absurd. Both the idea itself and the fact that they somehow screwed up the execution of such a simple thing that much.

      That sounds eggceptionally stupid, eggregious even.

      Wow I thought I was the only idiot that bought it. Once they started charging for the smart features, it got unbatteried and became just a fancy box.
