The 4th law of robotics is you must make the eyes turn red when they become evil.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 41 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Thats why you don't install red LEDs, that way they can't turn evil

I want a comic about a friendly android who finds humor in spooking humans with red eyes (and other things).

Panel 3 was pulled off so well, I actually felt a bit warm and fuzzy before panel 4.

[–] awesome_lowlander@lemmy.dbzer0.com 37 points 2 months ago

You should be feeling somewhat warmer in panel 4. If not, please step closer to the robot

Curiosity is what causes us to do things in the last panel tho

Wait... You're not supposed to do that?

When the "scientist" is giving you a prostate exam with both hands on your shoulders, I think it's justified.

Nono, that's a "Priest". Image him a bit like a scientist, but opposite.

"The experiment was successful"

[–] mayo_cider@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago (5 children)

I unfortunately don't have any sources, but a few years ago I read or watched a video about an interview with a paleontologist who was asked about their opinion of the first sign of civilization

Their answer was "a fossil of a skeleton with a broken and healed leg"

Every other animal dies with a broken leg in nature, the only way to survive is with the support of others
