What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Depressed? Howabout some surgery to implant electrodes in your brain. We'll guarantee a shockingly good attitude! That way the robots will be able to FORCE you to like their overlordship!

They will know you are depressed because they can learn by reading the text on your facebook in your diary.

They took our jobs! The Future was supposed to be a time when we would have more spare time, and work less. You can work less when robots are the manual laborers.

(and this is super-amazing to me) . . . or you can kick back and work none while a robot 3D prints your new house in a day, complete with plumbing and electrical installed.

Robots with a sense of touch? What do they need to feel? You don't need to feel a human's head when you smash it in your robot hands! I guess it would probably be more gratifying, though.

And of course, we'll be able to print you up a new head or something, now that we're figuring out how to 3D print human tissues.

We'd better teach these robots some manners before we give them guns, or they'll . . . wait we already have automatic robot guns. Well, um . . .

"I for one welcome our new robot overlords!"

My Darling Wife is concerned that robot house printers and robot manual laborers will put a bunch of people out of work. You still hafta earn a living, right? Well . . . what do you do if nobody has a job because robots do everything including making the robots? You frikken kick it and live the good life!

. . . in theory. Of course, as the saying goes, Communism works -in theory. I never watched Matrix or Terminator or Meet the Robinsons . . . what could possibly go wrong?
