Robot Loneliness
Add to My Profile | More Videos
I'm darkly humorous kinda guy and somehow often find humor in depressing things and sadness in humorous things. The perfect embodiment of this so far tonight would be GM's suicidal machine commercial.
For those who missed it, an assembly line robot that helps piece together GM cars is laid off and goes on through a depressing run of low-level work before finding himself on the edge of a bridge, debating whether or not to "jump." I didn't actually think GM would go there, but they actually had the machine commit robotic suicide. True, it turned out to be a dream, but still. Do robots dream of electric sheep? No apparently, they dream of killing themselves.
my son died by suicide last year. He was an avid sports fan and this weekend was difficult remembering the 18 superbowls we sat and watched together. To have this ad appear and drive a knife in my, my families, and millions of peoples hearts is so callous, ignorant, I can't even speak...Every 17 seconds someone in America dies by suicide. GAFAW!!!
