I dig the “scalping a Thomas the Tank Engine” look. Good product.

I wonder if my bolo tie qualifies as a similarly non-smart AI device. I just watched the first half of the "friend" commercial and couldn't help feel the tone was kinda dark and about to veer into horror territory soon. Like you couldn't even parody it because it would be too on the nose.
This is hilarious, very nice parody and timing is nice too.
