why not just buzz it yourself?

A good buzzer is like 35 bucks in a kit, and then you get hundreds of 'free' buzzes, literally anytime you want. Plus no fear of a robot slitting your throat.

- As an animal it feels good to have someone else groom you

- Actually getting the line perfect is not trivial, even if you're experienced

- This brings us one step closer to The Jetsons, and I'm in favor

This isn’t someone else grooming you!

Do you confuse this robot with your mother?

hard to clean up. sometimes misses spots, etc. I try to buzz myself but it always doesn't look as good

I did this a few weeks ago. I just quit a long tobacco habit, so I might have been a bit impulsive. For the most part, it turned out fine. I needed a second person to help trim the back, though. If you like a clean neckline, that's hard to do yourself.

Anyway, I rather have a 1990's Flowbee (https://www.flowbee.com/) than a robot. I've played Fallout 3 and know what can happen.
