Art had to go piss, so while he was taking care of his business, I went to the arcade.
I was disheartened with what I saw.
Bras, thongs, left and right. Provocative mannequins all around. What is this world coming to?
Suddenly, I realized I had accidentally walked into a Victoria's Secret store instead of the arcade. Oh boy, was I high.
I entered the arcade, and was very displeased. I saw no Tekkens or Cruising USAs. I saw high-tech boner inducing machines, which after closer inspection turned out to be futuristic motorcycle games. I saw a young girl hopping about in a frenzy on some sort of lit platform. Disgusted, I looked into the last crevice of the arcade and spotted an Area 51 game. There was hope!
I found the nearest token machine and inserted my dollar bill. No tokens.
Fortunately, my dollar bill had been spit out. I'd turned the bill the wrong way. Silly me.
I adjusted and re-inserted my dollar bill.
Three tokens.
I grabbed my tokens, and was just about to walk away when I realized I had been cheated! I should have had four tokens. Furious, I made my way to the prize counter to talk to an employee. But I stopped in my tracks.
"Why even go?" I thought to myself. He probably won't believe your story, and even if he did, how would it make you look if you were upset over a 25 cent token?
But I should be upset. The fucking machine should give me FOUR tokens. They have a machine to do it because it's better than a human. So why the fuck can't it get shit right?
Before I could make a decision, Art had come back. He put his five quarters into the machine, grabbed his tokens and took mine.
"Okay, you have three and I have five. So we can each get four. Perfect!"
We went and played Area 51.

Haha, that was funny.
This was such a classic stoner post.

That deaf, dumb, and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball!
Good memories with Area 51. I can hardly find an arcade around here, let alone a good one. The one in the mall was turned in to a Hot Topic. What a waste.

This was actually surprisingly amusing.
