Killer robots will come about that look like animals and my response, fully knowing it may kill me, would be “Can I pet dat dawg? Cahn eye pet dat dawwwwg?”
Give it a few more years and Amazon will be running full social hacks like this on purpose. Little delivery droids will just stop, look lost, and wait for some human to gently carry them over the curb and straight to the front door. Free last mile labor unlocked.
There is a place where the sidewalk ends
and before the street begins,
and there the grass grows soft and white,
and there the sun burns crimson bright,
and there the moon-bird rests from his flight
to cool in the peppermint wind.
America, where paths just end out of the blue. I only recently found out this was a thing in the US watching a video from an American (Evan Edinger) who moved to the UK and pops back to make videos about what is different about the two countries.
More like Oddly Sad.
This is how we'll lose to the robots. They'll prey upon our empathy, like sociopaths.
I already want to find that robot and make sure it reaches its destination. Damn Haley Joel Osment and Jude Law.

On the flip side there was that one robot that got wrecked within like 15 minutes of being in Philly
Wall-E sad
I didn’t realize what sub this was in until I saw your comment. Idk how this would qualify as oddly terrifying
More of an "existential" terror.
Stop anthropomorphizing robots. It’s not a person, or an animal, and is the face of unending greed and late stage capitalism.
That robot is looking at late stage socialism and contemplating how much better its life is.
You're not the boss of me.
He just patiently waiting for it to be constructed
Disassembled? - NOooooooO!
Or he's silently requesting a drone pickup in order to more efficiently complete his delivery...

Yeah, this sub either doesn't know what "oddly" or "terrifying" means anymore.
And yet, 300+ upvotes.
Most people just use Reddit like Facebook now. Subreddit topics don't mean shit.
poor guy hit his midlife crisis before his warranty even expired
Love that scene 🤣
Maybe this will get the government to actually invest in pedestrians
Poor thing, suffering a US disease
So this is the end of the road..
Poor Wall-E 🥲
I found one of these stuck half off the sidewalk, I drove by it, then made a U-turn to go help him, I actually felt bad for it! Felt good to help 🫡
Aww, poor guy. Give him a little hug!
This is more oddly cute.
One does not simply walk into Mordor
Who made Johnny 5 sad?
Same, robot. Same.
The machines must wonder what kind of world we have built and why
I swear its head’s tilted as if feeling defeated by an existential crisis

Can we help him? He looks lost. 😞 I just wanna take him home he’s so cute.
How is this oddly terrifying?
Poor guy is probably listening to Sound of Silence
Johnny 5 alive?
WALL-E
Bro contemplating his life choices...
Bots are getting too real.
Just like that Shel Springsteen song.
Almost had it.
Just doesn't want to go back to Philadelphia. We all know what happens to 'bots in Philly.

I dunno why this looks so sad. I guess since I know some asshole is gonna come mess with it
"What is my purpose?"
"It's to deliver butter"
"Oh god!"
::Requesting air support::
"when I got there, I figured, since I'd gone this far, I might as well turn around... and keep right on going".
Oh the terror! how terrifying of an image! I'm terrified now. /s
R2-D2's cousin got dumped and he's waiting for a taxi to pick him up 🥺
number five is alive!
It's much harder to get anywhere walking on a sidewalk than it is traveling by road. R2-67's gotta learn that.
Oh but they are taking over....
I read a book about this in elementary school
Perhaps the AI in it was feeling like a depressed human seeing no way out.
Oh the flipside, this will encourage more physical disability walkway paths
Delivery bots in the suburbs be like
I wish Shell Silverstein was around to write a poem about this...
r/petthedamnbot
Poor little guy :((
Defeated by Shel Silverstein
delivery companies will lobby for sidewalks and inadvertently make cities slightly more walkable, the irony
We’ve all been there, little man.
I laughed so hard at this
Wall-E ??
Why TF does it look EXACTLY like WALL-E
Wrong subreddit, should be r/stupid
