When I was in ninth grade one of the boys in my group of friends happened to notice that there, what would seem perfectly logical to him, was a candy machine in the girls bathroom, seeing this as highly unfair I told him that if he gave me a quarter I would buy him one. He ended up opening it in class and embarrassing himself.
