Crash calculator constantly crashes, costs more than a functioning one

This jumbled, curiously laid-out CRASH calculator is described by its manufacturers, the Takumi Corporation, with a random squirting of Engrish:

Everybody has an impulse to CRASH! We seek for the excitement of crashing in this calculator. You will be driven to crashing with the unpredictable action it makes. Calculate to crash, get an answer to crash… Enjoy yourself by operating this uncontroll”

I think that's actually a quote from J.G. Ballard run back and forth through the intestines of an English to Japanese babelfish.

Sounds like an updated version of the I Ching Calculator.

I think it would be cool if the keys could slide around, like one of those "15" or "rush hour" puzzles.

I feel compelled to buy this, drink a lot, and hit someone in the face with it.

So its a thing... that is broken. Takumi wants to sell us a broken thing.

Are the buttons located in order to increase the nervosity ? Cause they are not supposed to be put all around like this. That may turn mad.
