I’m dog sitting and met a roomba for the first time. I hate it and it’s ruining my life

MagNeato, my Roomba knockoff (Neato brand – almost as good at half the price!) is cleaning my apartment literally as I speak. It’s always a crapshoot, when I get home, as to whether he’ll be cheerily back in his charger or beeping in panic from somewhere he got stuck. Places he has gotten stuck include “whilst mounting the wii fit board”, “on a piece of velcro stuck to nothing”, “on the tiles surrounding my fireplace”, and “in the very center of underneath my bed for no visible reason”. Coming home on Mondays is like having a particularly dumb cat.
True facts, the first time I introduced R to Dalek Suck, my old Roomba, he asked to borrow it, took it home, and ran experiments on it (mainly he fed it tortilla chips to see how big a chip it could suck up whole).
The “whilst mounting the wii fit board” is when I completely lost my shit at work.
The babies will be beautiful.
This is why I love living in the future. Dumb cleaning drones are the best.
I especially love the story Geoff Ramsay told of how his dog shat in the living room while he was asleep and his roomba proceeded to spread the poop all over the house.
once when mine was on, my ferret proceeded to get on it and ride it around the house
