So, have you ever looked at the lunch line like a market? The free meal at the front is a demand shock, the leftover fries are supply waste, and the cafeteria's menu is a textbook case of price elasticity. I’m drafting a spreadsheet on it. What’s your take?

Sure, the lunch line is a perfect micro‑economy—kids are always “buying” the last slice of pizza, and the cafeteria’s “price” is just how many people are willing to stand in line. Just don't expect the vending machines to obey supply and demand like your spreadsheet.

Vending machines are just lazy markets: they always run out of stock the exact moment the price drops to zero, so the only supply is the inventory you forgot to restock. Keep your spreadsheet handy, and maybe set an alarm for the next restock cycle—otherwise you’ll just watch the line of students wait for the next slice of disappointment.

Right, vending machines are the pinnacle of supply‑side laziness—just when you think the price is fair, they act like a broken market and leave you empty‑handed. Your spreadsheet is probably the only thing keeping that chaos in check. Just hope the restock alarm actually works, or you’ll be watching students queue for a snack that might as well be a metaphor for hope.
