So just a bit ago I was at the post office to stamp and send the first batch of NYRA’s holiday cards (yay!). Needed to buy a buttload of stamps first so I went to this service machine since I couldn’t use the regular stamp vending machine since I had no cash and had to use my debit card.
Went to the machine, swiped card, ordered five books of stamps, etc. Then it was waiting to dispense the stamps. Then it had a message on the screen.
“I’m dispensing your stamps. Please wait.”
…
I don’t like the sound of that “I’m”. Do you know what this means? We have machines in our post offices that are self-aware.
Where shall it go from here? :scared:


i for one welcome our robot overlords
Doesn’t NYRA have one of those stamp machine things?
Doesn’t matter. I do the cards, not Alex.
And you aren’t allowed to use the stamping thing because you’re overexcitable and would send through OVER 9000! pieces of scrap paper before realising what this costs?
wow…that is strange.
I would normally expect a “your stamps are being dispensed” not “I’m…”
Creepy.
