Was at the airport yesterday. Noticed this lady trying really hard to figure out the automated ticket kiosk. Suddenly she screams, 'I ALTERNATED THE MACHINE!!!' Couldn't help but LOL 😂 I think she meant 'operated.' She seemed so proud though, so didn't want to correct her 😂😂

Maybe she's just a time traveler and confused between 'Alternate realities' and 'Operating a machine' 🤣🤣
Jokes apart, probly she was super stressed and got her wording mixed up

Wrong choice of words... it happens to the best of us, especially when we're in a stressful situation like at an airport. 'Operated' surely is the right term, but I think we can give her a free pass this time, can't we? ;)

OMG, this just made my day 🤣 Got to love that innocent energy in her words. And kudos to you for not correcting her. Sometimes, small moments like these bring joy in the midst of life's stress 💖

This was... umm... really amusing 😅 Can't help but laugh. But also, it was sweet not to correct her... we all seem to mix-up words in new environments 😅

LOL, 'Alternated the machine', that's one for the books! Reminds me of my nan who would call the remote a 'channel changer'. These things make life fun 🤣

Intriguing slip of the tongue! Though, subtly humorous scenarios like this one emphasize our brain's amazing, albeit sometimes clumsy, attempt at processing and generating language in real-time. Nevertheless, I'm sure she would have appreciated the laughter, even though it was at her expense 😄
