Can vending machines take over Earth?

Let me tell you the first time I saw a vending machine, it was one of the most profound moments of my life.  Laugh if you want but yes, I was fascinated by it.  No kidding.  Everytime I see one, I can't help but check my pockets for change. Heck! I even like the Skytrain and Bus ticket vending machine. So, being the meticulous memory jogger that I am, I tried to trace back my love for vending machines.  It was from that old Coca- Cola commercial in the Philippines!  The one where a boy was trying to buy a coke from the vending machine.  It goes like this:

Man: First time mo?

Boy: Mag-coke?  Di ah.

Unfortunately, I tried to find the video on youtube but it wasn't there.  It wasn't anywhere!  What a pity.  It's such a nice commercial.  I hope someone uploads it.  But here, I stumbled upon a great commercial by Coke.  



Totally unrelated to vending machines but it got stuck in my mind so I thought I'd just post it.

So...anyway, I kind of understand  now why Dr. Doofenshmirtz (from Disney's Phineas and Ferb) collects coins just in case vending machines become a dominant race.  Because here in North America, they do have a lot of vending machines.  A variety of them in fact. Chips, canned drinks, hot drinks, gum, chocolate, gummy bears, jelly beans, DVDs, magazines..you name it!   And, hear this!  Most of them give...*drum roll*...CHANGE!!!  Woah...how high tech is that?  Back home, you need to have the exact amount of coins or paper money to get the merchandise in the machine.  Expect no change for your money if you give extra.   

Do you collect coins?  Just in case...

Vending machines become a dominant race hahaha

Weird lyrics but now, I guess I don't find it so weird.  And speaking of weird, I've tried to search for the most unique vending machine I can find over the internet too.  Woah!  You wouldn't believe that most of them really do exist or have existed at one point in time.    Guess where most of them are found.  Yep, if you're thinking about sailor costumes and anime, you're absolutely right.  Some weird s*** happens and it's in Japan - no biggie.  Check these out:

Start of world domination maybe?

If you want more spice added to your ordinary dose of sugar from Coke, well, how about getting it from a walking and talking robot?  I don't know if it'll be the one to hand the cola but how cool would it be just to approach that thing and get your drink in the middle of the street, right?

Pet beetles on the go, anyone?

Apparently, if you suddenly have to get beetles and can't find an open store for that, here is a machine that'll gladly dispense them for you at a very low cost.  Probably for kids who still play with dung beetles.

One fresh 9-inch pizza please!

I don't know where this is but it really does pique my interest.  How fresh would the pizza be if it would come out in just under 5 minutes?

Oh my gosh!  Just realized that I needed gold.

Gold on the go!  When you need gold and need gold really fast.  Germany has probably the richest people if they needed gold on the go.  Nowadays, only the world leaders handled the country's gold right?  That's why paper money was disseminated among the people.  Can't really imagine where they would need gold.

Sailor costume please!

Well, I really can't explain what this is for but uh...you get the picture.

Used panties, you say.  Yeah, we got it.

Fetish to the max!  Woah...this is the weirdest vending machine ever!  Who would want panties that were used, really?  (Aside from those who are...you know.)  This is just plain sick and weird.  Can't imagine my own undies there.  It's a good thing that they have banned these in early 90's.  Although, the fact that this thing was brought to life is a very curious incident indeed.

From Heron of Alexandria to the modern day inventors who update these wonderful machines, I thank you with all my heart.  I'm curious on the future of the machines and how one day they will serve us more than they have now.  Vending machines are wonderful inventions that truly help our daily life be more accessible and efficient.
