It's like Dobby from Harry Potter!


I thought it was a peep show reference based on all the POV training videos.

Then again I read Harry Potter to my kids about 20 years ago and don’t remember much from it.


Truly an awful choice of name


Robot slavery


A slavery justified in the narrative by being a kind of sapient creature that simply naturally prefers slavery. And named after the one who wanted freedom due to, supposedly, being a weird exception to boot


to be fair, that's what robot means etymologically


Wait until you hear where "robot" comes from.
