All of a sudden  
I began to change  
I was on the dance floor acting strange  
Reciting very bad poetry  
I began to beep  
Look at me  
I’m the disco bot

Here’s a philosophical question for you along the lines of, “Would you kill your elderly grandmother to save your brother from being thrown in front of a trolley full of people headed for a cliff?”

**Would you feed the troll _to_ discobot?**

I would. And my elderly grandmother, and my brother, and a trolley full of people. I would butcher the whole world if discobot would only love me.

discobot does not love, he only tolerates. Isn’t that right, discobot?

You misspelled “fetus.”

Also, no.

And whether it’s characterized as a fetus or as a baby is up to the owner of the uterus.
