Blenderphone
How many times do you find yourself not hearing the phone ring because you've got the blender going? With blenderphone, your problem is solved. This unusual phone's ringer is actually the blender motor, which pulses like a telephone bell. To answer the phone, you pick up the pitcher base and hold it to your ear. The only problem is that you might spill whatever is in the pitcher if you answer the phone at the wrong angle. It's a good thing this company didn't make a blender alarm clock. Imagine how painful it would be if you tried to hit the snooze button!

If you need another word for crash or boom, this is the place. I'm not sure if the spelling of skrawwwk is correct for a bird sound, but there are plenty of other sound-effect spellings here if you're stumped. The longest sections happen to be cries or terror and explosion sounds. Go figure.
