I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
I once watched this thing on netflix about a robot with buddha nature. Anyway thanks for reading!

Wow, these people are worse with technology than the Amish. The petrol goes in the car and not on fire, not on your body and on fire. Hopefully the robot can help them with this.
