Omg I feel that. The oven in my apartment has touch controls. When I'm baking stuff with lots of moisture inside, water evaporates and is expelled though a vent JUST BELOW the touch controls. The condensation makes them completely unresponsive. Smh

You have to wonder if the engineer who designed that was a complete dumbass because it seems remarkably obvious that you'd want to keep moisture away from electronics.
