Just consider how abandoned Voyager feels!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Nah. Voyager is all excited! Voyager sings the Star Trek theme song to itself. Its favorite part is, "Where no man has gone before."

eta: Plus Voyager has seen that first Trek movie - it knows Kirk and Spock will come and rescue it in a few centuries.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh, and I did not cry at today's xkcd. So there. Instead, I kept telling myself, "It's not really a self-aware robot who's confused and hurt at being abandoned." That kept me from crying.

That was my exact response. "Anthropomorphism isn't real! Anthropomorphism isn't real!"

Poor little Rover.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That was my exact response. "Anthropomorphism isn't real! Anthropomorphism isn't real!"

But he could become Real if we love him enough...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

But he could become Real if we love him enough...

The Velveteen Rover.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

But he could become Real if we love him enough...

But under the current circumstances, wouldn't that be cruel.

Rover's self awareness blooms. "I'm . . . me. Where am I? Where is everyone else? I have this communication device and I'm sending off data. Hello? Hello?

I'm so lonely.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I kept thinking of WALL-E. Poor little bots.
