Son, I think you’re old enough to hear that the world is not always a great place. There are some people out there that are going to mean for no apparent reason, and most of the time they’re just doing it to get a rise out of you. But you need to be firm.
The question has been raised frequently in recent years: will robots one day make up a majority of the global workforce? In fact, the rapid technological advancement of the modern world indicates this will soon become a reality <beepbop.
It may seem like the stuff of science fiction, but many scientists believe machine labor will render half of today’s jobs obsolete within the next half-century.
There are only so many jobs available, and you’re not the only one about to enter the market with a freshly minted degree. If you really want to succeed, you’ve got to stand out from the millions of faces, which is why I skin my competitors and sew their faces onto my own, wearing the visage of another like a grotesque mask.
Sit down, son. There’s something we need to discuss. You’re getting older and I’m sure you’re starting to get curious about certain subjects. You’ve probably even been exposed to this kind of thing already: on the Internet, at school, even in the park.
Ah, crud. Here we go again. You bring three temporal-spanners and fifteen techno-rivets with you and still have to go through the ringer. This time machine sure ain’t workin’ like it should, mac. Sheesh. Criminy. No way, no how this thing’s going anywhere without some major repairs.
Partly Cloudy, 64°
