As we continue to turn over our life to robots, we continue to create strange robot bedfellows.

Case in point: these two new Christmas robots we welcomed into our household. In corner number one, the Roomba, the supposedly smart vacuum robot that keeps getting stuck in the same kitchen rug tassels. The second corner features the RoboRaptor, a much cooler and more intelligent robot that does not do anything useful for the household. After a brief 15 second fight, the RoboRaptor walked into the Christmas tree where it got stuck in some lights and the Roomba lodged itself under my mother-in-law.
