    We all knew robots would be here one day but who knew they would suck so much. They don't make my bed or do my bidding and they certainly don't go to work for me while I spend my day in the holodeck. If society is truly going to implode on itself then we need to be able to avoid all contact with other humans.

    Why teach robots to wield what are essentially swords?

    Robot Japanese army, that's why.

    We should be shitting ourselves.

    I swear, Rosa, you're really starting to piss me off with your writing.

    Why the hell would I want a lightsaber? That's what I hate about you right-wing religious nutjobs.

    I hate to break it to you but the simple truth of the matter is that ancient weapons and hokey religions are no match for a blaster at your side.

    Not only that, but, given a fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers, each carrying a full complement of TIE craft, together with a DEATH STAR (an armored battle station with enough firepower to destroy an entire planet), whiny farmboys, their effete droids, and pederast minders are no match for the might of the GALACTIC EMPIRE.

    You don't frighten me with your blogger ways. Your sad devotion to that ancient religion hasn't conjured up any Google's roadmap for 2010 through 2012 or revealed the specs of the Apple Tablet.

    Minor correction needed: penetrateand is begging for a space in there somewhere.

    Also, neat device. Hope they keep developing it. I'd like a plasma dagger.

    Weddings are supposed to be fun and reflect the couples interests, etc, so even though its not MY thing, I applaud them having the wedding they wanted and not giving in to "tradition". May The Force be with them.

    Is the groom a dwarf? He appears dysmorphic. That aside, he also looks like a giant bag of douches. If Kim Jong Il promises to make this guy his first target, I will hand-deliver all the nuclear weapons he wants to him.

    I'm seriously wondering when the hell someone is going to arrange an entire Ben-Hur Segway race, complete with the spiked wheels. I'll bet Woz would love to crack the whip at Segway noobs and see them meet their doom at every treacherous turn.
