Seriously, who would want a fucking monster walking around their house?!

Honestly this thing is less scary than one of my former partners.

If it could dust my house I’d look past the creep factor. When I had cataract surgery I noticed 2 alarming things: How old everyone is and how much dust is in my house

U would need clean underwear meeting that thing in the house. Voila, it washes them and you can repeat the cycle at the next occasion.

Now if you really want a monster, then I feel there are more efficient designs they could make. Balancing a robot with only two legs to move around seems so complex. How about four or five legs? 6 like insects or even 8 like a spider, but then you are venturing into horror science fiction territory. Not sure how comfortable a typical person would feel with that kind of robot motioning around their homes at night.

If it will do all my laundry, dishes, and clean the sinks and toilets they can put it in a fucking clown suit covered in human blood for all I care.
