Chapter: Comic
It’s sad when you put your last dollar into the machine and your candy bar gets stuck. It leans there against the glass, taunting. Then one day you walk up to the machine and someone else’s candy bar is stuck. Now you get two. The circle of candy is complete once more.
Today’s Biff stumbles.
or you simply throw the machine over and steal all the candy, which some of my collegues did once. some days later the vendor was screwed to the wall.
I wonder if they’d maintain the frickin’ machines better if it were legal to do this.
another “good day” you get your candy, the candy that got stuck before you and then you get your money back plus theirs. a machine at work did this for me one day. I thanked it and went back to work happy.
I regularly bashed, bounced, and bodyslam vending machines whenever and wherever the opportunity arises.
In college, we would make it into a game to see who can get the stuck bag of chips or soda. We would spend about a minute in front of the machine figuring out which item would be the best one to drop.
Is it just me, or is batman owling in the last panel?
Vending machines these days are designed to fall over on top of the person pushing them. This places evolutionary pressure on customers to accept malfunctions as normal.
This is why you should use a car jack on it instead.
Zagnut? But I wanted a Clark bar!
Please tell me I’m not the only one who sees this as a Michael Keaton mash-up. Beetlejuice used a Zagnut bar to tempt a fly. Soon after, Michael Keaton was Batman.
What a sleuth! You are very sleuthy.
