With the way my Packers played last year I’m still relegated to drinking wine coolers. Hopefully I’ll be allowed to drink beer when the Pack redeems itself this fall.

When they start feeling human emotions, that’s the day I start worrying if my Roomba will suddenly go Skynet on my ass.


Meanwhile, treating it with respect and kindness won’t hurt.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah! But can the dumb sumbitch...enjoy a good beer and a hot fembot?"

He'd better, they're the most important enjoyment and "feelings"!
