Oh good, now we can be chased around by hairy killbots.
Will they purr as they kill?
Are you ready for robots skinned with sensitive hairs?
Ready as I’ll ever be!
I prefer to think of them as hugbots.
It’s just that they hug you to death, is all.
Are you ready for robots skinned with sensitive hairs?
I mean… I think so? Should I be stocking up on, like, some favorite snack of theirs?
This could mean fantastic improvements in prosthetics.
With hairy fingertips.
Hairy robots.
Fuck you 2016.
So robots with ASMR?
I for one welcome the rise of the hairy singularity that will gently engulf their creators in their loving embrace.
Are they ready for me?
Hairy palms FTW!
Yiffinators?
If I am, would you hold it against me?
Still bracing for a hyper-insensitive President with heirs.
Q: Are you ready for robots skinned with sensitive hairs?
