AUTHOR: whomii2
RATING: G
SUMMARY: Sometimes the machine plays favorites...


Although it was supposed to be impartial, sometimes the Machine played favorites.

While it found sporting events one of the more baffling aspects of human behavior, the Machine had a little bit of bias for the 49ers (perhaps due to its instructions to protect the numbers?)

Dissatisfied with how the Super Bowl game was going, it took out its frustration by disrupting the power in the stadium. It quickly found that it had done itself no favors, as social media exploded with angry responses and it was soon too busy monitoring comments to worry about the game.

When it was all over, it consoled itself by replaying the Budweiser Clydesdale commercial. There was a slight hitch in its processing as it reached the end---it missed its Admin.
