so my housemate recently (and quit reading my journals max and get a goddamn membership already ) went to a movie that had some of those, "now that we've got you where we want you and you have no mute button" ads before the show. which can be fun for heckling. except this time the ads were for robots.

no not r2d2 or c3po robots. not "i'm really made out of a metal trashcan" robots. but "i've been made with a sincere effort to look as creepy and human as i can and you can now purchase me and have me live with you in your home" robots. and it wasn't a joke. they're making these things.

he made some kind of funny heckling comment, but nobody in the theatre laughed. either they were all in total shock that, yes, it has indeed come to this. or they were all secretely masturbating to new longings for a robot of their own.

eewwww! does this bother anyone else but me? i don't want a creepy fucking robot living in my house. i don't want one in your house. can't we just all slow down for two seconds and have a reality check here....wtf? ROBOTS? life, really, is so very very very siimple. everything we have was right here from the start. we keep reaching into the future when we just have it all right now. i don't know wether to be creeped out, sad, or to finish construction on that mountain top hermit hut. get me outta here.
