Tokyo-In Japan, the robotics engineering industry has gradually evolved into not only a fiscal boon, but a cultural one as well. Shinzō Abe, Japan’s prime minister, believed that the Japanese Robotics Revolution would sustain the economy’s financial plan and the manufacturing trade and industry. But these policies and aspirations were soon demolished, and has since affected people on a global scale.

“My Twenty-One versatile homecare droid unit stole my car!” says Patricia Chevy, a Tokyo citizen living in Akishima. “I left the keys on the kitchen counter, and asked Twenty-One to hang them up for me, because I forgot, ya’know. Next thing I know, I hear the engine roaring in the driveway and I ran outside only to find skid-marks on the street.”

Chevy isn’t the only person who’s encountered deceptive, fraudulent robots. And these incidents aren’t secluded to just Japan.

“I had two robot units, Pepper F23Y and HAL-5. One day, as I was riding my bike back home from a quick spin around the park, I saw Pepper and HAL hauling my cat George into the backseat of my pickup truck and giggling to each other as they drove away,” explained Harlem MaineCoon, a resident of Chicago, Illinois. “They even saw me on the sidewalk as they were driving past, waved amiably at me, and then pushed down on the gas and sped away.”

Androids – humanoid robots – have been found to be the most unreliable robotic unit. Dr. Arigato, an avid robotics scholar and technologist, has discovered that these robots have electrical robotic-brainwaves that resemble that of a hormonal adolescent.

“They act on that young teenager-like whim,” Dr. Arigato clarified. “They feel invincible, and in a sense, are invincible. Many people are now concerned that these ‘YOLO’ mechanical notions will eventually develop into a full-scale world domination plot.”

Many have begun preparation for the robotic apocalypse. People around the world have either thrown their robots into the sea or a nearby pool of water to shorten their circuits, or they have dismantled them and sold their parts on EBay. With their savings, these people have purchased bunkers for their yards and/or plane tickets to an uninhabited island off the coast of Mexico.

“Everyone’s getting on that plane. We’re calling the island, Armageddon-Liberation Isle. It’ll be robot free, and we can finally escape these robotic antics,” says Jackie Autonomy, a citizen of Dublin, Ireland. “I used to have a GIY-3487 robot unit. I nicknamed her Gigi. After I heard about these apocalyptic gossips, I threw Gigi into the sea. I don’t feel bad.”

Dr. Arigato has apprehended some of these discarded robotic units from the ocean, recharged their circuits, and kept them prisoner for further investigation. He allowed us to interview one of these units.

“I am robot unit FR-45. I want to steal your cats,” said FR-45.

Dr. Arigato intervened.

“Yes, it seems most of these units want to take felines. I’m not sure why, exactly.”

All in all, it seems that the Robotic Revolution has spiraled into a whirlwind of unreserved chaos. However, it is can be argued that the culprit for this catastrophe is not the robots, but the humans.
