I was a mere teenager, the year was likely 2000 or 2001. The exact moment in time is largely irrelevant.

What is important are the events that I witnessed while gathering my beverage for my meal. For it was at this moment that I saw a man also procuring a drink of his own. There was nothing particularly interesting about this man. He was wearing ordinary clothing and by all appearances had an ordinary demeanor.

He had set down his plate of food to get his drink, and after a moment lifted it back up off of the counter. This is when fate intervened. As he raised his plate, a single piece of fried chicken plummeted off the dish, and onto the colorful carpeting below. I watched him, bemused, silently wondering if the man would throw the food away or shamefully place ot back onto his plate.

What he did, however, was beyond the limits of my imagination. Without hesitating the man reached down, picked up the chicken, and placed it squarely upon the drainage grate of the fountain drink dispenser. He then turned around and walked to his booth, as if this were all perfectly acceptable.

I watched, dumbfounded, wondering what could compell a man to perform such an act. I then waited, watching for any sign that the man may face some consequence for his actions. None came. He completed his meal and then left with the rest of his dinner party. Gone to live out his days without facing the responsibility of what he had done.

It was on day that my faith was irreversibly shaken. For what divine being, in all of it's wisdom and power, would allow such an atrocity to go unpunished?

I watched a woman wash her hands after coming out of the bathroom with the sofa dispenser at Taco Bell one time.

I nearly vomited on her in rage.

She probably wouldn't have been able to tell.

i used to like that place because the drinks were buffet style, and they had a milk and chocolate milk dispenser.

pretty much whenever we went there, i would get one plate of lukewarm food, and then just endless milks.

I had one of those, but then my grades slipped, so my parents cancelled my sofa subscription.

Similar attrocities led me to my disbelief in a benevolent/caring god.

Also, home town buffets stopped having beef ribs anymore, which was the real clincher.

What god would allow that to happen?

I'm so tired I can't stop laughing at this... either a tissue box that dispenses magical sofas that poof to full size or a random sofa of the week being dropped off at your doorstep every Friday.

So were you worried that someone would take that piece of chicken and eat it? I do agree that person should have disposed of it in a garbage can. I don't believe that anyone would have taken and eaten that chicken from where it was left. It is certainly good the person didn't bring it back to where they originally got it from, leaving it for someone to pick and eat it.

He was actually knifed to death in the parking lot, you just missed it because you didn't watch long enough.

Also, his wife and teen daughters were left destitute, and had to become prostitutes to earn enough to survive.

I was there that night too. The universe did shudder a bit as it came to the conclusion that nobody would recognize the idea of chicken soda.
