vending machine

The machine's no longer making any weird sounds at least. Out slides a wrapper from the previous box with the inscription "no thank you, I'm allergic to peanuts".

Insterts milk, butter, chocolate chips, eggs, flour, and brown sugar in a mixing bowl.

The machine spits out milk, butter, flour, brown sugar, and a mixing bowl filled with scrambled eggs. You wonder where the chocolate chips went.

A note on the bowl says: "Thanks for the non-peanut chocolate. Very considerate of you".


Inserts the future into the vending machine.

The vending machine now requires 1.21 gigawatts per hour to run. A cord is released. The text on the handle says "backup generator".

I pull the cord and insert a few AA batteries into the machine just to be safe.
