Pomodoro timers are shaped like tomatoes.

I also read it as "throwing tomatoes", as each commentator was criticizing the previous level as being unproductive.

"The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. ... Each interval is known as a pomodoro, from the Italian word for 'tomato', after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer that Cirillo used as a university student."
