the most tragic thing ever

I didn't want to add this to my noreaster comments, but Friday when I was having a bad day, I suddenly had a flashback to a tragic occurrence last summer. I went shopping with some friends, and I was thirsty so I wanted to buy a dr. pepper or maybe a coke from a vending machine. It was one of those with the clear front and you choose the coordinates of the item you wish to purchase and it extracts the one from that slot for you. I pressed the coordinates for the beverage of my choice, but to my utter dismay it started selecting the orange crush above the drink I was waiting for. Turns out the coordinates label the item above it rather than the one below it. Orange crush is my least favorite soda. I was so thirsty I drank half of it anyway.
