Stupid, crappy soda machine at work is at it again. It took my dollar and didn't give me a soda! I kicked it and slammed into it shoulder first. It just sat there, the words "COLD DRINKS" mocking me as I nearly died of thirst.

the first dollar is the tax and depost, it wants another dollar to pay for the soda

I thought the second dollar was to cover the carbon credits required to throw away the can or bottle when you're done, and the third dollar buys the drink?

No, The third goes to cover the death payouts of people killed by falling over vending machines.

In SoCal, while taking a community college class in between summers, a black chick was quite pissed that the machine swallowed her change to no avail. She yells out, with her hand on her hip:

" 'Ama let this machine take my money or 'ama act a fool?"

The things we don't forget.

If you're in the mood for something sweet, Twix bars fall out of vending machines if you shake them enough. If you're in the mood for something salty, bags of microwave popcorn slide out with ease, usually a bump or two will do it.

Ours does that too- though thank god we are getting a new one..

due to..."employee abuse"....

This reminds me of one of the funniest things I've ever heard in my life. I was in the Atlanta airport, and a rather large and outspoken african/american woman was just screaming at the woman at the counter...as I walked up to them, I heard

"...if you can fly this damned airplane 600 miles an hour, in the dark, and find Atlanta you can FIND MY LUGGAGE!"

And actually, I prefer buying Coffee, because I can get a good look at the cute gal that works at the little local Cofee shop I've been going to.

That's awesome. These can go on and on. Yesterday, on the morning train to work, a black male in his 20s is sitting in front of me. He had a hooded sweatshirt/jacket on, pulled up over his head. It was full of slogans:

- Keep a low profile in DA hood

- Keep dog close (probably a pit bull)

- Don't go into the wrong section

And all this other crap about DA HOOD....like a high school yearbook that had been filled up. He was listening to music on his ipod/MP3/whatever through his earphones, shaking his head up and down rhythmically and making these goofy hand motions. Poor lady who had to sit next to him.

It was a combination of entertaining and sad.
