How many times did you look at the picture before noticing the tattoo?

What tattoo? There was a tattoo? Damn camouflage, what sort of weird ingenious plot is this? I think we have to let DARPA and the military in on this. If this sort of technology gets out were all Doomed, Doomed I tell ya!

That's a beautiful picture. But when I get home, wifee brings me a cold drink. It may be beer or a gin & tonic or whatever strikes her fancy. She keeps the home going, does the laundry & lets me FReep to my heart's content. Needless to say, the gratuity is more than the customary 15%. What robot could possibly come close?

Ps: Guinness is about as good as it gets. But don't you think it should always be poured as a pint? No more, no less?

Never sell. In Japan, most adult males already have a beer bot. It's called a "wife."
