ROBOTS. I love this. Especially the moments where we see that the terminators are subject to entropy too (and that humans alter themselves too, even if we're not so good at it).

Also 'would you like to be a fish?' cracks me up :D

[sanguinity]

Humans are more fragile, less decomposable into independent subsystems. It is hard to do radical body mod without dangerously compromising the chassis's integrity. Oh, to be a Terminator! So readily able to shuck these coltan coils...!

I LOL'D FOREVER WHEN I REALIZED THAT THERE WAS A CANONICAL TERMINATOR FISH I COULD USE FOR THAT. Between that and casting Cromartie as an ocarina salesman: that entire bridge cracks me up. :-D
