Brings a whole new meaning to the ol' "drink verification can" meme. The artificial kidney could scan the contents for firmware updates and stuff. Maybe it shuts off if you don't drink one every week.

For speech readers, not sure if something this long will fit in the alt text.(This isn't the original text but it's close enough to get the joke. The dates and game were different in the original. This was what some copypasta website gave me.)
