That’s my biggest problem with self-checkouts. There’s always a weird payment service provider behind them who wants to share whatever they can with their 3621 partners. I guess the same is true when you use anything but cash, including card payments at regular tills, but at least they give you the option to pay with cash. Self-checkouts usually don’t (but a few do!).
The song they chant to transfer their soul into the object is actually pretty dope! I am a dwarf and I’m digging a hole, diggy, diggy hole. I’ll give it a shot when I’m dying, but I’ll make sure there aren’t any MLP toys around.
edit: turns out the song is actually based on a Minecraft clip! I guess this comic references the original clip, not the song, but it’s a good song nonetheless.
