Posted - 05/22/2007 : 12:19:00 ...so I'm at work, and it's lunch time. I had a hard time deciding what to grab for lunch, as I am currently in a depressed mood, and that much thought is too much thought...and I can't get myself to drive anywhere...but I am hungry...so I decide to spend the $2 I have in my pocket on the stupid snack machine. I spend $.65 cents on a Snickers bar (good) and $.80 cents (like I need to keep typing 'cents') on a bag of Doritos...except I hit the wrong fucking combo of buttons and I get Fritos instead. Unless Fritos are flavored with Chili Cheese or something, they are kind of gross. I am sitting here eating said Fritos, and they are making me feel sick. The Snickers is making up for them.
Who likes what out of snack machines when they are forced (or driven) to get snacks out of snack machines?

Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

Posted - 05/23/2007 : 12:10:55 Coasty, some bars still have them. It is like $8 a pack for these. They are better than Fritos.

Haven't seen one in ages. Do you still have them in some countries?

Posted - 05/22/2007 : 19:09:19 When I was in Canada I developed a small, irrational and uncontrollable attachment to the 'potato chips' called Ruffles. I can't remember what the flavour was called, but the colour was purple. They were ace.
In the motherland, I quite like plain flavoured Squares. When I'm feeling a bit more adventurous it has to be red Monster Munch. I don't really eat chocolate at the moment, bar chocolate hobnobs (what with it being summer), but I recall being partial to mint aeros and snickers from machines in the winter.

I can only seem to find these in machines, never in shops, so I usually make the most of the opportunity at the machine in the college refectory.

Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

Posted - 05/22/2007 : 13:55:30 At my workplace, there is something we call "The Dead-Meat Machine." It has cold sandwiches and such in it and they are always yucky. I usually get M&Ms or pretzels from the regular snack machine.
Hey, coastline, I'll take those new headphones off your hands since you're not using them. Nothing like some rockin' Frank Black tunes blasting loudly through a good pair of headphones!!

Posted - 05/22/2007 : 13:31:19 Genius. Where were you when I was having major problems, shineoftheever? Like when I couldn't choose between the Morrissey ticket and the new headphones?
(And if you're wondering whatever happened with that -- because I know you are, Tranny -- I was totally bummed out when I missed Moz, especially considering I never use the goddam headphones. I made the wrong choice.)
Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

Posted - 05/22/2007 : 13:02:47 i usually go for a snickers or a mars bar, sometimes a twix, but mostly snickers, i am usually satisfied. i am comforted that if i am not satisfied there is a 1-800 number i can call for a full refund. you should check the bag of fritos for a 1-800 number trans, tell them you thought they would taste more like doritos and they don't so you're not satisfied, you can also tell them you paid $4000 for the bag of fritos and ta-da, all your problems will be solved.

Posted - 05/22/2007 : 12:54:33 Yeah, I'm sure you could find a decent snack machine in a subway. |
