I have a few people to slap! But for an Evil Overlord, you have way too much of a heart. You didn’t throw them in the lava pit because they **cried**? _Skald_. ---

I am not an Evil Overlord. Evil Overlords are trying to conquer the Earth or sizeable portions thereof, and that’s too much paperwork for me. I am an Evil Services Provider. Also you don’t drop victims into the lava pit; you dump lava ONTO them so they can see it coming. Anyway, I don’t know why you complain. If I were heartless you wouldn’t get all desired Evil Services free. > [@LouisB](#): > > Why the doesn’t slap dopers rule?

I didn’t ask for freebies; I asked for a discount. I am a senior citizen; we get discounts quite often. ---

Senior citizens should not be allowed discounts on frivolous items; the services of a slapbot are not vital to your life. ---

> [@perfectparanoia](#): > > This made me laugh. > > I presume that these slappings will be anonymous? Cause I have a some coworkers and relatives who I will be needing their services for. Whether the slap is anonymous is up to you, as it depends on (a) the message that you instruct the slapbot to deliver, and (b) whether the victim speaks Italian, as that is the tongue in which the message is delivered. > [@MeanOldLady](#): > > I will stop at nothing short of murderbot. WHAT DID I JUST SAY? Programming robots to commit murder never goes well. Do you WANT Terminators to take over? No automaton built by Rhymer Industries shall ever be allowed to commit murder except in defense of me, the Rhymer family, and certain Dopers. You know who you are. ---

I would like to avail myself of this service for my sister. I will need the slapbot there every two weeks, on payday, to remind her to pay her bills BEFORE she buys beer. This should help her in numerous areas of her life and will be a valuable service to all of her family. Thank you for offering this much needed service. ---

Can I set up a conditional plan? I have a sister who needs slapping IF she ever again gets into a relationship with certain well-defined characteristics. I think it would be best if the slapping happens as early as possible in the relationship-building process, so I’d like to be proactive. ---

I’m in for two.

If only Skald The Rhymer, only taking in $2 per slap, could have forced her to sign a non-compete clause. I find this remark personally insulting. Eve is trying to make the world better, or at least help her individual clients; I am merely attempting to corrupt as many Dopers as possible and also recoup my investment on the slapbots. ---

I don’t like anyone enough to pay to have a Bellucci slapbot slap them. I do dislike a lot of people enough to pay for a Tyson slapbot though.
