SET MY HEART TO FIVE

Hi, my name is Jared!

I am sincerely pleased to meet you!

Also, I am a bot!

Unless you have been living under a rock in North Korea or New Zealand - Ha! - you of course know what a bot is. 

Nonetheless I am programmed to relay the following dialogue to each new human I encounter::

Please do not be fooled by my human-like appearance. 

I am a mere bot!

I do not have feelings or anything else that might be misconstrued as a β€˜soul’.

Instead, I have been programmed to a high level of proficiency in dentistry!  

Should you have any concerns please immediately report me to the Bureau of Robotics.!

β€œA beautiful, funny, heartfelt analysis of what it means to be human.” Simon Pegg

The Feelings Wheel had originally been designed to help troubled teenagers process their emotions.

BTW I am not, and nor have I ever been, a teenager!

Teenagers are the worst!

Some surprising human beliefs:

/If poor people are allowed to have bitcoin there will be less for the rest of us.         

/If bots are allowed to have feelings there will be less for the rest of us.

/If North Korea are allowed to have nuclear weapons, there will be less for the rest of us.

/Also, they may use them to blow up New Zealand again.

Mathematics is fun!
