♪Here comes a thought, that might alarm you♫

Every year, ~3 people are killed by vending machines.

that's actually a fairly low mortality price to pay for the general use of vending machines imo

wait do you mean three total or three per vending machine

Probably lower than the net life quality lost by all of the junk food purchased by said vending machines

i think there are also 6 elevator related deaths per year in the USA

Fewer than two people a decade die from an ingrown nail.

106 Killed in Fatal Vending Machine Malfunction
An unknown error in a local vending machine has caused the deaths of 106, with 20 more injured. Surviving witnesses said that the man at the vending machine typed 310 (the code for Dill-Flavoured Doritos Chips) and put in a 100$ bill. After a few minutes of beeping, the machine declared that "[the secret government code has been] accepted, self-destruct", causing a 150 m explosion in the Mall.

67 were pronounced dead on the scene, and a further 39 were declared dead after emergency surgeries. "The damages done by [that diabolical machine] were unlike anything this hospital has ever seen," commented a secretary.

Programmers of the vending macine released the following statement - "What the fuck? What the fuck," - before rushing back to their cubicles. Reporters could not reach them for further comment.

The Mayor could not be reached for comment; he had taken a small clear pill and started foaming at the mouth.
