“When I found out my microwave wasn’t waterproof, I was shocked”

A jocular one-liner about a microwave oven is:
   
“When I found out my microwave wasn’t waterproof, I was shocked.”
   
The “shocking” pun was cited on Twitter on May 21, 2012.
   
“When I found out my new toaster wasn’t waterproof, I was shocked” is a similar joke.
