Two things I learned today

A: the new BoM bank machine in the Farrahs by UW fires cash out hard enough to look like a stupid movie sf/x.

B: I really really _really_ don't want strangers to approach me and offer a hug.

There's that "Doctor Who" Christmas episode that introduces comedian Catherine Tate as Donna Noble, he has a way with a cash machine...

I don't remember if Irn Bru (a soda, a Scottish soda) originated in their parody television adverts the drinks vending machines that responded to violence with violence, or if that was what they were imitating...

Some cosplay is hug-resistant. Lady Gaga's "sea urchin" design, for instance. Tricky for public transport.
