There's a whole class of appliances that work by adding adjectives to the items you place inside them. One box (oven) makes things warm, another (fridge) makes things cold. One box makes things wet (washer), another dry (dryer)...

What examples can you think of?

@Colarusso I'm typing this on a box (computer) that runs computations on the data stored inside it.
