Yeah every now and then a bagel would get stuck. We had this like plastic rod with a massive end so you could jam it down the shoot without ever hitting the blade.

It was really just me forgetting to be patient and wait. It takes like a good minute for the blade to come to a complete stop. Usually you can hear it whirring and know it's still spinning, but after working in there all day you kind of get used to the sound.

Used to work in a bagel shop. We have a big ass slicer, spinning blade you drop bagels into down a chute.

Every day we turn it off and wipe the chute. I wasn't thinking. Unplugged the machine, scooted it out, and began wiping down the chute inside, brushing down crumbs.

It's a fucking miracle my finger barely grazed the still spinning blade that hadn't come to a stop yet. Immediately recoiled my hand and just got a scratch from it, not that deep.

I was pissed at myself for not realizing the blade was still spinning. That shit could've been so much worse.

Recently got back into my childhood favorite, Simcity 2000.

It's just a classic for me. Amazing city builder with a chill soundtrack. Super rewarding planning out your city and watching it develop across the map. And it's super stress free if you just play with disasters off
