Anything but the M&Ms....
So, I was reading through my old online blog posts and ran across one of the funnier ones. I don't think I posted it here, so I'll copy-paste for your amusement...
I ordered a pizza and breadsticks for dinner. They were great, but I figured, HEY, every good meal needs dessert, right? So I run into the building to the candy machine, and lo and behold, there'* a bag of M&Ms (the king size ones that they sell for $1 around here) hanging halfway off the bottom rack. Usually when this happens, if you buy another, it'll fall, right?
It wouldn't be a funny story if that was the case. I put in my dollar, hit the button for it, and it jammed right on top of the first bag...shoulda heard me cuss...
So I go "Okay, another dollar should fix this." The third bag jams. Another dollar. Fourth jams. ANOTHER dollar...it jams AGAIN!
End of the story: $4 and 10 minutes with a plastic knife later, I have the four bags of King Size M&Ms that I paid for. The final insult: the first bag is STILL jammed in there....heh....
