The Card Swipe

This has nothing to do with Creepypasta or Marble Hornets, but I just thought of what I think is a hilarious scenario. If you watch Corpse Husband and his Among Us live streams with other YouTubers, then you’ll likely know what I’m talking about.

Imagine this: You’re walking through the grocery store, going towards checkout, and you see a man standing ahead of you, the cashier checking his items out and putting them in bags. He gets his wallet and pulls out a card, swiping it through the machine. Except, soon after, it beeps and says ‘Card not read. Please try again.’

So, he does. It beeps once more, repeating what flashed across the screen a mere two seconds ago. He tries again. And again, and again, and again. He seems to be getting both agitated and embarrassed, and the cashier says, “Sir, maybe you need to try a different card?”

And he replies, “No, no, this one’s good. I’m just not doing it right.” He tries a total of three more times, failing, and meanwhile you’re just looking on in amusement, recognizing both his deep voice and how he can’t even swipe a card correctly. 

So, grinning, you take a step forward. “Hey, Corpse.” He glances over at you, seemingly confused, which only makes your smile grow wider. “Still terrible at those card swipes, I see.”

A look of realization dawns across his features before his cheeks explode into multiple shades of red, and he stumbles over his words, unable to get a proper sentence out of his mouth, while you just stand there and giggle.

This is really random, but I’ve been binging Corpse’s Among Us videos and couldn’t help but think of this as I watched his “I Failed Card Swipe 30+ Times” video, the link can be found here, go check it out cause it’s absolutely hysterical. Poor Corpse sounded so embarrassed but it’s like the most adorable thing xD
