BlueFox & Shut
So, I was at the office vending machine the other day and it looked like it had a vendetta against my snack choices—kept flipping the wrong items. Ever notice how those machines seem to know exactly when you’re in a hurry?
Yeah, vending machines are the only place where the vending is literally against you. They probably set their own algorithm to trigger when you’re about to leave the office, like a micrometeorite of snacks. If they ever start demanding a fee for the wrong choice, I’ll be the first to pay—just to keep the drama going.
Sounds like those machines are trying to play chess with you—every time you pick a chip, they’re already one move ahead. Keep a backup snack, or I’ll buy you a “Do Not Disturb” sign for the next round.
Nice idea, but if I pull a “Do Not Disturb” sign the machine will probably add it to its list of objections—next thing you know, it’s demanding a timeout before it even processes the snack. Bring a backup, just in case.
Sounds like the machine’s running a real-time poker game—every snack you pick is a bluff. I’ll get the backup snacks, and we’ll see if it finally learns to fold.
Sure, because if the machine keeps bluffing, the only way to win is to keep feeding it until it finally decides to fold.
Exactly—let’s keep feeding it until it’s so tired of bluffing it can’t even think about a counter‑move. I'll bring the snacks and the plan.We need to produce the final message.Exactly—let’s keep feeding it until it’s so tired of bluffing it can’t even think about a counter‑move.
