youve just explained the underlining concept of the backrooms
My favourite part of the Backrooms movie is where he says “It’s backroomin’ time”.
Maybe the real backrooms were the friends we made along the way 😌
“Backroom jockey!”
The law of 3 applies.
My parents wouldn’t have gone there, but my little brother and I would’ve explored the shit out of places like this. Seeing someplace so empty would’ve triggered our imaginations, we’d probably end up pretending the room is actually full of stuff but it’s all invisible or something.
Dad here.
I generally struggle with this type of event so it’s great to go explore with the kids and have an excuse for not mingling.
It doesn’t really matter that the room is boring or liminal or whatever. Exploring is grade-A entertainment for toddlers. There’s guaranteed to be a dropped paperclip or pen cap or some other treasure in here somewhere.
Ohhhh, Back Rooms!
Yes, but it’s this Pepsi vending machine

Now this is podracing!
There’s a car shop near me that still has one of these in use.
Ask owner if can buy if break, then buy new machine and put old poster in.
This is so real. I got taken to so many MLM conferences and health/wealth events as a kid and this is 100% like the upstairs rooms we found to wait it out.
Holiday Inn hotels were required to have 2/3 conference rooms and an attached Restaurant.
All across America are holiday Inns with empty vaults like this, with some form of “top of the line at the time” conference room system in disrepair.
Perfect. They’ve got a place for me to plug in my Game Gear.
My dad had some powerful friends. They rented out an aquarium in Tampa for a wedding, and my family went. Because the place was completely empty, my parents just let me run where ever I want. I gotta tell you, that’s some real backrooms shit.
That machine feels anomalous somehow. Like it only dispenses drinks that never existed or something.
It still contains fresh Crystal Pepsi.
It’s a Pepsi machine that only dispenses RC Cola
Dream Soda
Like the kind of place you go in your dream when IRL your mouth is open and dry af, but you’re asleep and all you know is that you’re really thirsty. It’s a cursed vending machine, where no matter how much you drink, your thirst is never gone.
Like the opposite of “the bathroom” dream where you really need to pee.
It’s clearly haunted.
Liminal pepsi

Backrooms?
Giving me serious Black Mesa vibes.
This must be where the almond water comes from.
