alas, the flight of these machines from
rampant modernization is daunted but not failed: networked together with a
front end which takes whole dollar bills. Could that be
The future of Grocery Shopping in general?
Didn't they try that with the
automats? (
Ruby's Autodiner, somewhere on the south end of
Highway 1 is
not an automat, so don't turn around -- just
keep going)
Favorite item:
Necklaces (The friendship necklaces suck, but sometimes there are little
Chinese character pendants that mean "
Fire" or "
Crazy". And sometimes your friend gets "Crazy" and then later half of it breaks off so when people ask about his necklace he can say he's not only
lost his mind, but
half of his insanity too.) The experienced Plastic Bubble Popper soon comes to realize, however, that the items are not so important. The machine is an oasis of pointless action, especially for three
summer-out-of-highschool teenagers.
As for the
plastic bubbles, throw in a slice of cheese or an
orange peel and
watch it grow!
