Los Angeles, Ca, UEssay A trial program of placing specialty Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs) designed for specific neighborhoods began in South Central Los Angeles this week. The modifications were inspired by a similar program in Great Britain which recently installed special "Cockney" ATMs in target neighborhoods in London.

Instead of the customary polite greeting of ordinary ATMs, customers view a screen that aggressively orders them to "Break yo' self, sucka!" followed by instructions to slide their cards.

Once the card is accepted, users find that the usual prompt to enter a PIN code has been replaced with the cold statement "I think it's best if you give me your digits."

The standard screen which allowed customers to select from various accounts now reads "What set you claim?"

Those unfortunate enough to have insufficient funds in their accounts to cover their requested transactions are taunted by "Get the fuck up outta here, broke ass nigga".

Rather than the customary "Thank you" users have come to expect, the special ATMs chilling order them to "Move around, fake ass niggas, get out my face, move around, better move on down, 'fore I catch a case."

Officials had expected an overwhelmingly positive response to the ATMs and were greatly dismayed to learn that all 187 machines had mysteriously disappeared within two hours of being placed in South Central.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
