Coke machine: 0 Me: 1

After I woke up and showered and everything, I decided to go down to the Coke machine and grab a drink. I had no bills in my pocket at the time, just change. Three quarters, some dimes, some nickels.

This Coke machine has a hasty habit of getting its change chute clogged up, so I first peered in to make sure there was no coin gridlock in there. It looked clear. I put in one quarter.

"$0.25," the machine's LED thingy said. I put in another.

"$0.50." And another.

"$0.75." And that's all the quarters. Let's try the dimes!

"$0.85." Plink. "$0.95."

And now, the nickel!

*clunk*

"$0.95."

...oh, ferfucksake. I hit the "coin return" button. Nothing.

"$0.95."

I tried dropping in another nickel, to hopefully dislodge the one hung up in the works.

"$0.95, bitch."

"FUCK," said I, and slammed the heel of my hand just below the coin slot.

*...clk....clink...clatter...*

"$1.00."

I literally fell over laughing. That is the first, and likely the last time that has ever worked.

Pounce is making these new cat treats, called Meaty Morsels. They come in chicken and beef flavors, and they actually look like little chunks of chicken and beef. They're also made with real meat.

They also reek.

Oh God do they reek. I cannot describe the smell. It does not smell like chicken or beef, that's for damn sure. It's foul.

But the cats are going batshit insane over these things. They love 'em. I've had them for one day, and already all I have to do to make the cats go *poing!* is say the words "stinky treat." Mini-Me went so far as to drag the empty chicken pouch out of the trash after I transferred the contents to the Treat Tub and tear it open to get the crumbs.
