Killer Robots:  a menace to the battlefield?


Sound off if you want...

Now, the problem is, how to divide five Afghans from three mules and have two Englishmen left over.

Airborne Rifles

That would likely cripple Japan's future military development.

I would hope that we could always have some in our back pockets in case we needed them.
My doctor wrote me a prescription for daily sex.

My wife insists that it says dyslexia but what does she know.

Yeah, that is probably one of the first ones on the no-no list.

There are lots of things that the un has banned that we still use.   ;D
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Hopefully T-600s won't become one of them.

As long as the robots only kill who I want, I don't really see the problem with them on the battlefield. As usual, my problem is mostly with all the other humans, killers or not.
