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

I mean, isn't a vibrator basically sort of a robot?

I think "robot" implies a certain amount of automation.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

What is wrong with 42% of people? In a lot of those cases, though, details matter.

Ok, people who travel more than I do, I need advice. I'm getting my "going to Europe" clothes together. I'm doing skirts and tights throughout and have a sweater and a jacket. I'm there from mid-June through mid-July and not going farther south than Paris-ish. I am lead to believe that temps will top out at about 70.

Bearing in mind that I have a small amount of packing space, what mix of long sleeves, short sleeves, and tanks would you recommend?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That was my initial thought. Then my second thought was, isn't a Roomba supposed to be a robot?

Shit, I want robots doing everything!

Granted, I do not have the parts, but that doesn't look comfy to me.

I want a robot.

ISTG. I got an email that was timed 3:09, asking if I was available to talk at 3. This was a reply to an email I sent Wednesday giving my availability yesterday and today (in response to the original sender's question). People, man.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I think with all those questions, the very important follow up question is, if not a robot, who is doing it? I suppose with the first two questions the implied answer is I'd be doing it instead (in which case I'm ready to order my robot house servant), but who is going to sex me up if I say no to the robot?

I am so not of this cultural moment.

If a robot is the premium option for the third question, I think you'd be better off doing it yourself than risking whoever's behind Door #2.

Debet, how long are you going for?

I would like a robot housekeeper if it was better than like, a Roomba. But not as exists now...
