Sure, sabotage would always be an option.

I was going in another direction, though. If the machine hates you, you could pursue the reason why, or the fact that you are dealing with an entity that has emotions...

The question really is, do you want to look into writing a story for other people's entertainment, that uses your unique perspective about machines and allegedly inanimate objects?

Life, so full of minor interruptions..

When I write, I write to purge things from my head for any number of reasons.
That it turns out to be a story and have humor seems to be secondary actually.
Not sure if I can explain it fully or adequately.

That a machine hates you would be an unnerving experience.
To have it proactively act against you would be unbearable.
How would you know which machine 'started' it?
Or whether or not the machine is acting independantly or not?
How would you find out without having autodrive cars run you down in the streets?

*chuckle*

I'm not sure what I'd do with the story.
I don't have a good track record for being able to finish stories longer than two or three paragraphs.

(How would you know if you've 'won' against the machines?)
