Can you count the number of things wrong in the picture above?
If you answered, "every single one", congratulations, you are
correct. You see, Bloodbot is a robot designed to stab you with a
needle. And I think we can all agree: that is exactly NOT what
Jesus would do.
The robot consists of an arm with a needle and a probe. In order
to find an accessible vein, the robot probes around your arm until
it finds an area of flesh that is a little bit less squishy than
the rest. Then it jabs you with a needle, and when it feels a
little pop indicating that it's punched through into a vein, it
knows to stop the jabbage, lest it go right through the other side
of your vein, out the back of your arm, and into your femoral
artery, causing a massive amount of hemorrhaging that will no doubt
kill you in minutes.
So far, the robot is accurate about 78% of the
time.
Hell no. Helllllllllll no. I don't care if it's accurate 110% of
the time, no robot is getting anywhere near these precious, alcohol
filled veins with a needle. I'd rather stab myself in the heart
with a cannonball.
