Wtf even is the "need a roommate" argument in the context of making your bed?? I couldn't even get my damn roommate to clean his own fkn dishes let alone ask someone to make my bed for me lol
My assumption when this was posted 3 weeks ago was that the guy is assuming people who can afford a bed making robot are not poor, thus they do not need a roommate. Its an avocado toast argument, not a "kids are so lazy" one. Second person misread that, i believe.
I agree that this is more plausible, but it's still almost as baffling, since it suggests that the existence of some people who can afford a (hypothetical) bed-making robot implies the nonexistence of people who can't. Like, at least Ovacado toast in a cafe was a vaguely affordable luxury that someone could conceivably stretch their means to occasionally purchase. This is more like "all you need to do to stop being poor is cut back on having your chauffer paint himself in gold leaf to match your limo".
Huh. Maybe he is a noble from Oxford in the 1600s, where one could employ one's roommate as a servant, allowing the slightly lower classes to access education.
get me a real robot (not one piloted by some poor dude in India) that can work a job, pay rent, plus not need a room ( ok maybe a closest for charging) and i might consider it.

The last time this was posted, I think I recall someone saying this is a translation flub rather than what this guy actually means.
But it is funny to imagine he thinks a roomate is like when Baron Ünderbheit went to college.
You don't understand, you're the roommate that would be replaced by the robot.
A charitable reading is "if you have a bed making robot, you can't claim you need a roommate for monetary reasons"
Do rich people think anyone who regularly interacts with them is automatically a servant?
Not other rich people; only they are treated as humans
Rich people treat other rich people as threats

So a missing /s in his post made him the villain ?
this man has never even imagined being held.
Now he won’t have to!
It's one bed making robot Micheal. How much can it cost, $10?
posts door dash receipt for one bed making robot plus all of the fees
Huh. That's actually slightly more 🤔
So uh… anyone who expects their roommate to just act as a live-in personal housekeeper needs to take a step back and literally fuck their own face
The rich would never stoop so low as to blow themselves. That's gay. They have people for that.
I still cant fathom what this guy even means. What does it have to do with owning a diet slave machine?
Maybe he can only imagine someone would live with him if they got paid to work for him?

Just try explain empathy to a sociopath.
Rich people talk to themselves in the mirror because no one actually cares about them, so a clanker is perfect for them.
I think you put an "need a" and "argument" too much in there
