WTF. How to fucking steal.  I don't drink pop.  (yeah, midwest. We call it pop. So what.). If I did drink pop, I wouldn't steal it.  STupid. So stupid I can't even believe I'm moved to post about it.

$1.25 for a can of pop is theft.

I haven't seen the trick, the site seems to have collapsed.

I remember from my youth, the Anarchist's Cookbook, or some such guide, showed you how to short-circuit a soda machine by squirting salt water into the dollar bill slot.

The machine would then empty out _all_ the soda and coins.

I wonder if vending machine manufacturers have fixed that particular problem.

The kid sure can't write, so he may as well learn to steal.  Hint: words that end in 'S' don't ALWAYS need apostrophes.

fucking load of effort for a free can of poision. he and that machine deserve each other.
