Do you think it's possible that Madison will buy out Ebay of all it's weird stuff?

Discuss.

Or if that's not a good enough question, will he accidentally build Skynet out of out toaster?

Whenever somebody buys something off eBay it's just going to encourage people to go dig in their garage and be convinced someone wants their Day-Glo polyester hula shirt from 1973.

Sad thing is that it's usually true. Point is, it's a vicious cycle. There will never be an end to weird shit on eBay.

Then you think it'll be Skynet?

Either that or the first Cylon.

For now he's just going to continue to patronize eBay, AKA "the world's garage sale".

The thought of Cylons creep me out.

Hey, I don't see why the thought of robots with the capability to visit nuclear apocalypse and/or interbreed with humanity should worry anyone at all.

Don't forget the creepy experimentation for baby farms and stuff either.

Nothing to worry about at all. Just harmless curiosity, right?

Of course. Nothing at all to worry about.

Sure, sure. I for one welcome our new robot overlords.

If it happens, I'm moving to San Fran. That's where our very own metal repeller is.

Oh well. I suppose I don't need to worry; I can probably survive a nuclear apocalypse. I'm sure roaches make lousy company though. Cassidy would probably say there's no difference.

It's going to be a Cylon. Come on. He's building it out of a TOASTER.

Make a roach circus?

And the first round of those things were all pure metal. SO still San Fran.

Ah, but it's a sad roach circus if there are no kiddies to come see it or parents to be appalled.

True.

It's not weird, it's a classic s/f b-movie from the 70's.

And Miles Dyson builds Skynet. Although the toaster in the kitchen is evil enough to actually be a component in some sort of machine network that wants to take over the world.

Mmmhmmm.

Miles Dyson is not real. YOU will build the Real World version of skynet from our toaster or possibly the fridge.

Although Cain thinks it'll be a Cylon.

Cain does. Or worse, some bastardized hybrid of Skynet and a Cylon.

Now, that REALLY doesn't bother me. It'd be like the inbred hillbilly of the technology world.

Or else a fiendish mastermind. Roll of the dice, huh?

I prefer "inbred hillbilly of the technology world." It's funnier.

It is at that. It can call him "Ma".

"Maw" and "Paw." It's name better be Netty Lon Smith or something.

JimBob is the ultimate inbred hillbilly name, but it can't be made from the words Skynet and Cylon.

Cy Sky. Because naming your kid the same thing twice means they're a hillbilly...or maybe a porn star.

I will not. And not with the fridge, it likes people that aren't me.

I can assure you I will not be making any Cylon's. Or if I did it would be an accident and they'd look like the ones from the original series.

I think people will always have more weird stuff; not eve Madison is capable of buying it all. (And there's got to be some he doesn't want-- like those weird little collectible figurine things old people seem to love.)

I think it's a very real possibility.

For both things. If he does build Skynet, can I be John Connor?
