    So uh… anyone who expects their roommate to just act as a live-in personal housekeeper needs to take a step back and literally fuck their own face

      My assumption when this was posted 3 weeks ago was that the guy is assuming people who can afford a bed making robot are not poor, thus they do not need a roommate. Its an avocado toast argument, not a “kids are so lazy” one. Second person misread that, i believe.

      The last time this was posted, I think I recall someone saying this is a translation flub rather than what this guy actually means.

      But it is funny to imagine he thinks a roomate is like when Baron Ünderbheit went to college.

    get me a real robot (not one piloted by some poor dude in India) that can work a job, pay rent, plus not need a room ( ok maybe a closest for charging) and i might consider it.

    Huh. Maybe he is a noble from Oxford in the 1600s, where one could employ one’s roommate as a servant, allowing the slightly lower classes to access education.

    Rich people talk to themselves in the mirror because no one actually cares about them, so a clanker is perfect for them.
