    Also, how will I get my revenge?

    With a fire-extinguisher robot dog?

      I can’t kill my neighbor who sent the flamethrower robot dog to my house with a fire extinguisher robot dog! Not without plausible deniability anyway.

        A 5 minute thing blown up to a 50 minutes action sequence with cars drawing circles in the desert and a helicopter filming infrared and tüdelü, all in 10x repeat, is a sad new high for me.

        But of course someone tested that already.

          Well…That’s TV shows for you.
          But even better: Between each repeat would be an ad break. :)
          At least we don’t have that (premium and/or ad blocker) on youtube…
