I think we'll be fine as long as one of us doesn't get the dumb idea to download the memories of their dead daughter into a military robot.

I was drinking when I wrote this, so sue me if it goes astray.

An average chimp is about as smart and self-aware as a typical five year old human child. Giving them the rights of said five year old rather than those of generic_housepet seems reasonable, don't you think?

I for one would vote for that!

Don't let people do defense research projects at home.  I mean, WTF?

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

I could only hope that dad downloads me into some sweet robotic hardware when I die.  Time for some Political Action Committees...

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

I'll take military robot, if it's an option.

Yea I mean wtf? First, dumb idea at all. Second, at least tell her you're going to do that so she doesn't go all freaky for not feeling her own heartbeat. And third, work off a backup you knob. You invented the internet and aren't smart enough to leave the source material alone?
