As a student I smoked large amounts of MASSIVE DRUGS
Livin' the cliche. Yeah. Well anyway so I bought my drugs from a bunch of chronic stoners who spent all their time playing Championship Manager and masturbating (usually not at the same time). One day I was round their flat when one of them started expounding his theory of "little triumphs". Like when you get the teabag perfectly in the bin without it hitting the sides, or when you go the vending machine and there's a few pence at the bottom, or when you get the comfy chair in the lounge. These microscopic events were the highlights of this sad bastard's day.

Somehow I've been reminded of those pathetic shut-ins.

There was a drinks machine
in our Student Halls for a while, that gave out two cans for the price of one if you held the button down on Cherry Coke.

To be fair, that was quite satisfying.

When I was more allowably childish
I was dispatched to Snowdonia with my fellow scrogs and the Hostel of Youths we were closeted away in had a games room; one table top arcade machine (Lunar Lander I believe) and a pool table.

I discovered that you could have 2 games for the price of 1 if you pushed the little metal coin tray in just enough to release the balls, but not all the way, so it got stuck. You can't do it anymore due to an improved mechanism but I have embarrassing memories of imagining a friend and I clinking together our 10 pence pieces in a weird monetary high-five celebration of this extraordinary value. We didn't actually do that, it was something my imagination felt appropriate to suggest, but even then I knew how embarrassing it would be to actually do that.

As with the Cherry Coke tale above, it sure is satisfying to put one over on them coin munching metal bastards.
