    WHAT! I love my bialetti… Thankfully it will probably last me forever and the little sealing part I can get from other brands I guess.

    Not a criticism, but that way of phrasing it is funny to me. Makes me imagine it was like a Doctor Who episode.

    SCENE: INT. OFFICE BUILDING
    
    Camera pans over standard office equipment, characters
    making copies, having lunch in the break room. We hold
    on a phone operator, female, Mediterranean appearance,
    mid-30s. Her name is GIANCARLA. She is engaged in a
    pleasant phone conversation in Italian. The other side
    says something which makes GIANCARLA look confused.
    
        GIANCARLA:
          (Italian, English subtitles)
            Huh? I think something's wrong with the line, I
            can't understand you. Is that even Italian?
    
    Wobbly blue energy wave (SFX) passes over GIANCARLA. She
    is now female, Asian appearance, mid-30s. Other end of
    phone continues speaking.
    
        GIANCARLA:
          (Chinese, English subtitles)
            That's better! Everything's back to normal, now.
            For a moment, it didn't even sound like you were
            speaking Chinese!
