I was recently blessed to spend some magical time, in a magical location, with my wonderful family.


While visiting, I noticed a roomba buzzing in the background.


You know what my immediate thought was after, 'that's so cool?'


Wait, WTF, I have one of those too!


I sent it on its merry way a few years ago, and that bitch ran away and never even sent her mama a postcard.

I live in a small ass house.

Because clearly no one can find you, and I could use some of that stealthy hiding power myself.


BRB.


This may be the best game of Sardines I will ever play.
