It's a late night, and what better place to get a snack than a dingy corner store with a teenage attendant. But what's this? A self-checkout? We must live in the future! Surely absolutely nothing will possibly go wrong with this new fangled wonder technology...

This is exactly how I imagined Soldier's first self checkout went.
and his last one too, by the looks of it O_o
I swear, they make it difficult for people on purpose.
He would later eat out a path through the self checkout machine
Soldier's and everybody else's, it seems!
Me: So how's your shopping, Soldier?
*This Video*
Soldier: It's been long, busy, and a long day.
As someone who has worked self check out for 2 years. This is the most accurate representation of those damn machines.
Wait, people work on these? Did they keep you inside of one?
Without the dying part right?
...
Without...the dying part, r-right?
Hey, someone just like me.
@@SneedFeedAndSeed You gotta have at least one monitor to make sure the people going through the self-checkout actually... you know, pay.
They are starting to add a feature where it looks at the shopping cart. Now every single purse in the cart calls the attendant over.
i love how pissed the soldier is at the diet soda at first, but when pointed out that "errr laws my good sir" he immediately goes "oh aight mb" lol
I feel it might be because compliance would be faster than arguing
What’s even funnier is apparently Soldier isn’t even supposed to be able to buy it, since the sign reads “Anyone born on or before today’s date in 1947 MAY NOT buy or consume diet soda” which according to his ID, soldier was born in 1940.
@@jampine8268 That's life advice right there.
pyro saying thank you when the self checkout is fixed its really funny
Fink fhu. 👍

i like how scout is always portrayed as a gen z teen/kid
Which is funny because he is canonically the only Baby Boomer as the other tf2 mercs are too old.
Lore accurate
@@baconator_x4098 Was he born in the 60s?
He's been portrayed as the youngest generation of every decade since the game has been released.
He has enternal youth
0:52 The Sentence mixing is just beautiful.
0:55
It's scary how accurate this is, especially the Scout having to come over and over again telling the machine everything's fine
no way you turned doublecross basement into a convenience store this is so well decorated and creative
holy crap, I didn't even notice.
Holly shit, I didn't even notice that lol. Had to double check, and yeah it's doublecross basement (blu iirc) lol.
Holy shit
@@kaden-sd6vb ikr
Now I see why everybody hates self checkout...
Sometimes odd issues crop up, that's for sure. Though, things work just fine like 90-95% of the time at the very least, in my experience.
Plus you can steal
@@roachdoggjr3235 12 years ago i would've thought that cringe but now i say based
Skill issue
I once scanned a mirror and accidentally bought the self checkout machine

"Sorry, Surly." 😟
hello texlow :)
@@orangekid861 Howdy! :D
Good to see you Tex hope everything is good with you but also upload when?
Sorry Surly..
0:41 Just, the fuckin pouting turn and stare and Solders whole stance as Scouts makin his way over is just gold.
as a person who works in retail, self-checkout machines actually suck. too many people dont bother learning how they work and if its explained to them they forget before they come back to buy more things
I'd love to use self-checkout, if not for the fact that they often require personal to confirm your age, so you wait longer than you would if you just did it the old way. Also you cant pay with cash.
@@EasyMoney322 There are self-checkouts that accept cash payments.
@@EasyMoney322 some self-checkout machines do let you pay with cash, the slot for it is usually just way far outta the way. and regardless of going to a normal lane or a self-checkout, your ID still needs to get manually checked most of the time when buying alcohol or smokes.
Self-checkout machines taught me to respect cashiers more, because it made me realize that the checkout machine is really not so easy to operate
@@samuellasky7771 I mean, most of the errors that occur with self-checkouts are safeguards to prevent customers from stealing or doing something malicious.
Cashier POS machines don't have these safeguards, and a good modern POS can be really efficient and fast with a skilled operator.
0:02 this intro looks like an artist who's about to show you their best NSFW art yet for some reason lol.
📸
Thats very specific, though *true*
I hate to admit, you're right
@@Kitsunzero4"unoriginal" - Scout TF2.
1:06 when the boss is in its final stage and has a pixel of health left and kills you.
Me when i get absoluty dominated even after trying my all:
1:07
It's more painful than when a boss kills you right off the bat because your time gets wasted.
i love how these characters move, it feels like they're made of jelly.
The slow walking of the employee to fix the machine is just the cherry on top. 😂
I particularly like the id part for some reason.
That smile, that wink.
This kinda feels relatable, i also like how he needed an id to buy soda
diet soda and it was totally warranted
my 70 year old grandma was id'd buying sparkling cider last thanksgiving, so thats pretty accurate i guess.
"But it says non-alcoholic right here..."
Honestly soldier probably somehow managed to do some devious shit to make people need to have an Id to buy sodas.
@@SomeGrunt_On_TH-cam wouldn't put it past him.
i swear your animations get better with each video you make!
Soldier is sick of this newfangled technology
Pretty funny seeing Scout always portrayed as Gen Z'er in most animations when he's technically a boomer.
Love that Simpson Hit and Run OST you used.
0:57 Mysterious mystery hand to the left!
I think my favorite part of this video is how Soldier is red faced ANGRY at Scout when he is gesturing to the Diet Soda, as if asking "ID FOR WHAT!? SODA!?" but when scout reveals the law stating Diet Soda....*...shouldn't be sold and yet you can still buy it with an ID?*....he just goes "Oh, here you go then" instead.
Me when self checkout
1:48 For a split second, it says, "Give me your spine."
After it says "Die now"
true
The vita saw meaning for organ donor Is a nice detail. 1:17
I have a feeling it wasn't voluntarily
The elasticity on your characters are just like snorting glue.
lol nice tf2 animation
Yooo Alex Was Good
Hello again!
Yeah that seems about right
If only Kitty were here to see the absolute art that he inspired today...
I lost it when the checkout station packed Soldier into a coffin, very convenient 😂
I love when pyro pop up and just said thank you with tumbs up
same 0:30 i freak out when it turns on too
The Pyro thank you thing is why I'm nominating this for a 2024 Best Animated Short Oscar
0:55 The extreme burst of escalating anger that your brain hastily processes and dismiss to avoid you from having an episode in public is too relatable.
This has to be one of if not the best animation I’ve seen this year, everything down to the animations, expressions and the jokes is just perfect
Poor soldier,he just wanted some snacks!
0:08 hey look its the soldier sandvich
Oh my god dude. Every single one of your videos are pure art.
I know it's a pinnacle element of these types of animations to have lively and detailed background environments with plenty of little obscure jokes hidden about; but yours always seem to be one step further than the rest. Something about them just has that punch.
i love the reference to the last sfm with the hand in the sandvich
100 hours to make this? Incredible stuff.
- "That'll be 50$, sir."
- Okay. Can you give me change on a 100 bill?
- "Sorry sir, that is too big for us. You got an exact amount?"
- [Goes to exchange for 50-bill]
- "Sorry, sir. But we don't accept cash these days."
- Huh?! ..A'right, I'll pay with my Card then.
- "Sorry sir, our terminal is broken."
- ....I'll just Mobil-Pay you, then! What's your Store's number?!"
- "Sorry sir, that is too modern for us."
- Want me to write you a damn Check?!
- "Urgh, that is too old-school, sir."
[A wild Manager appears:] What's going on here?
"Urgh, this customer doesn't want to pay, boss."
0:17
My favorite part is usually "INSERT CASH OR SELECT PAYMENT TYPE" With the cadence and decibel count of a fucking aircraft engine.
Can't remember the last time a TF2 animation cracked me up this much.
This is actually funny and relatable. That falling Demoman was the cherry on top and made me bust... i mean bust i mean bust i mean burst out of laughter
Perfectly Captures The Hell People Go Through When Using Self Checkout.
Keeping the artform alive
I incrementally went through 138 frames for "cake."
Thank you Alxium you make me giggle.
the ID check moment is so fucking accurate, some other day I had to show my ID to buy a fucking non alcoholic drink because it had some caffeine in it and now it's a non alcoholic energy drink that kids would buy so now I have to show my ID so yeah....
I can say without a doubt that this is incredibly accurate. Now just make it where the customer accidentally scans the same item three times, argues about how it's the machines fault and why they want to call corporate on you.
Sometimes it is kinda the machines fault though, the scanner on the bottom scans the barcode on the bottom then the scanner on the side scans the barcode on the side.
1:46 That's the best sound I've heard from Soldier in a while, just this tiny little "eh"
my favourite part is soldier who keeps staring while walking away, it encapsulates my experience with boomers in grocery stores perfectly
I work in retail, and this is EXACTLY how it goes. Even the murderous deathtrap at the end!
The expressions are incredible 😂
I work at a store with self checkout and I can confirm this is painfully accurate
Yo at the beginning you can see the soldier sandvich from the last vid, nice detail
This is so true self checkout experience! those bloody machines always have some kind of problem
I am beyond amazed at how well your animation skills have developed here. You've got your style nailed down and your pacing in these videos have really amped up! I doubt you have much left to master in Gmod at this point! Great laughs man, keep it up!
I love soldier's little reassuring wink at 1:17, it feels like something that a 50 year old dad would actually do when verifying ID
Probably the most relatable video on your channel.
0:55 Soldier's inner anger
1:14 Everytime when I have to show my ID card
1:20 'That's it?'
1:48 Pancake 🥞 to Coffin ⚰️
This animation is actually god level for gmod
I was just thinking about if anyone has made some sort of satire about self checkout the other day.
Thank you.
The thing i hate the most about self checkout here is that you can't cancel stuff yourself... Aside from that though, it's pretty good. If i don't take any alcohol, usually there's no need for any help from the cashier at all! Very quick and readily available too, even in supermarket rush hours.
Self checkout is supposed to be SELF CHECKOUT! If the machine says ''ask help from the cashier'' just to push a simple reset button, then I ain't shopping!
last last frame of soldier loosing his mind at 1:07 is actualy terrifying
this takes me back to the gmod days
This one gives me That Grey Cartoon Pony vibes. Great job!
Soldier smiling and winking gives me unbridled joy
As a cashier, I can relate.
Frightfully accurate depiction of self-checkout
I’d prefer to go through what soldier went through than talk to a receptionist only for my card to decline
fun fact, the self checkout says these:
"Give me your spine"
"D I E N O W"
"No thank you!"
"This video took over..."
"...over 100 hours to make" (impressive!)
"You should sub lol."
The smoothest animation 🤣 🤣
I'd use self-checkouts more if, when the staff member has to come over to fix it, a Pyro giving a thumbs up appeared and he said "Thank you."
It'd at least make the experience slightly more bearable.
i really like this one, the absurdity of needing and id to buy diet cola, the wink while the id was being checked, the thumbs up pyro, the soldier packaged into a coffin by the machine, the soldier obstructing diet in the thumbnail so its just "die", the aperture science debit card, and of course the excellent animation. great stuff
"Would you like a 5p coffin?"
Literally my parents when the self-check out first came out lol
I love this new era of weirdly-shaped TF2 characters in animations!

AAAAAAAAAAAAnd profile save. 1:07
god, this one of my favorite sfm now
Sad that good animators like this go underrated
The Ed Edd n Eddy style effects make this top tier. Great work!
I can totally relate as I’m the overseer for my Self checkout at work. People don’t know how these are programmed. Nobody at SCO have no patience. Sure, there can be errors here and there but they have to understand that nothing is perfect. Let me do my job and on your way.
i love how expressive the characters are and how you got your own kind of touch with the animations. Only thing that i feel worth critiquing are those void meme style ear rapey parts. They dont really fit in with the overall theme or vibe of the video and kind of make the whole thing feel cheaper or lower quality. But thats just my 2 cents.
Other than that your animations have really evolved to look incredibly high quality and the overall humor and delivery are great too.
Holy crap, you changed Doublecross's sewers so much! Thats the power of Gmodders
Хороший магазинчик

I love how soldier's drivers license is 50 years expired.
comedy gold
hats off to you for being a TF2 TH-camr AND having original funny jokes
A new GMod/ SFM creator has entered the arena! Amazing work, brother!
This was so stupidy relatible.
At this one supermarket I go to, I have to constantly have a guy scan their card because the scale on the self-checkout machine is always pissed at me.
Amazing animation!
Ah, those Self-Checkouts do all of that every time, you get used to it.
The wallet was well animated
POV old person trying self checkout for the 10th time:
I love that the sandwiches in the store have a continuity with sandwich factory.
For a moment on Soldiers ID we see that he is a donor. This man deserves respect
