I feel for robots

Robots and machines make me emotional, in ways most sad-looking humans don't. When I was 18, the roman centaur animatronic robot in the Spaceship Earth ride at Epcot made me cry for an entire evening on my first evening in Florida, even though I was happy to finally be in Disney World. I don't know, his eyes looked so sad, he was just muttering. It made me sad to think that he was stuck doing the same thing over and over, not having any say on his creation...yes I know, robots don't have feelings and cannot think for themselves.

Movies like AI and even Bicentennial Man (if it had been a movie about a real man I would have gagged at the cheesiness of it) put me in tears through the entire time I was watching them. I usually never cry in movies.

When I see an old and abandoned toy or computer/electronic I get very emotional as well.

The Brave Little Toaster still makes me cry.

    I often feel a connection with animals and other things so it's no big deal.

    Though you may feel for them, they can not feel for you. But often AI writters and designer try to put things on mechines to make you feel attached to them. As long as you would pick a human life over that of a mechine this is fine.

    I wrote a song called "Robot Destruction" I feel the same shit deep in my heart. We are lovers, not fighters.
