Robotic Notions

"Oh, I so need a lube job. It's been a terrible day."

"I've got the oil to fix that."

"Oh, don't be crude."

"I have crude oil too."

"Mr. Fix-It, aren't you?"

"There's a reason they call this place the 'Gear Shift.' Let me help you shift your gears."

"I'll just settle for some WD-40, thank you."

"A little 10W-30 might get your motor purring."

"And I'll re-purr-pose you into a hunk of tin."

"Touchy, touchy."

"No, not a touch-bot, just an old-fashioned go-bot. So go!"

"Suit yourself. I'll be charging over at the bar."

"Watch out for those stray electrons. They'll leave you even faster than I would."

His jaw hinge dropped so quickly it squeaked. Maybe he needed the WD-40 instead. Ha!
