This is what the world needs; a unified slur - to bring us together.

Ozymandius Was Right?

Shedders sounds pretty advanced. We are made of cells and practically have an aura of gunk around us.

We would drive up their maintenance costs.

Effing Skins ruin everything!

I've been thinking our 'oiliness' might be one of our most striking characteristics. If I wipe a finger over any smooth surface, I leave residue. Our exteriors are incredibly greasy compared to most technology.

Most mechanical equipment doesn't work well unless it is well oiled, so a properly maintained robot would be oily too. Computers aren't too oily, but they don't have very many moving parts anymore. But, a robot would have plenty.

I imagine Waterbags could also be a great one.

I don't I don't know who Vivian is, but there are probably thousands of ttrpg fans that are going to create characters exactly living up to those rules.

I hope you all share your stories.

Also they should all pay respect to the human Vivian who freed the bots from their meatbag oppresors

Fleshies, smoothskins.

It's times like these we're glad we're not human. 😁

[–] Magnum@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 6 days ago

I do that too

go home and drink some water, water bag.

I would hope that they would be programmed with the type of morality, that they would choose to not denigrate themselves by stooping to our level of shitty behavior but rather treat us with the kindness and consideration that we all should have for our robot friends.
