You guys are so heartless.
After all, it has seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion, for instance

I've seen things you people would not believe... I've watched the sun rise near a cliff on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

On the old Twilight Zone series, for some reason they always pronounced robots as `robuts’.

Hmmm. Maybe they’re from Long Island where they insist on calling donkeys “dunkeys.”

...if it sang a round of Daisy. 2001: A Space Odyssey?
The Bell Telephone Laboratory gets first dibs on that as sung by a computer. The movie used that and other true factoids in its script.

Yup. Sort of a right of passage for a newbie programmer whether it is C, C++, VB,... Cobol, Fortran....
