  So, a Chia-Pet is just a clay bust of P`Thok that you smear gel containing grass seeds on and it grows green grass like hair?

  But that`s stupid, P`Thok didn`t have hair...

  So, like a half hour ago I sent people to check out the BobCo facility.

  Apparently it`s operational.

  Apparently it`s up and running, producing toys right now.Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

  The four LawSec and two government officials received gifts that they`re blasting all over social media right now.

  The Treana`ad ambassador who arrived last week was just gifted a "Genuine BobCo Autonomous Animatronic Moomoo" by the BobCo AI. Not a digital sentience, an actual AI. The Ambassador is taking vids of him petting his Moomoo and having it do tricks. He`s lording it over every other Treana`ad in existence by posting it to the Smokey Cone diplomatic site.

  The Treana`ad Matron in charge of the diplomatic team received a P`Thok ChiaPet, a fishtank full of Genuine Sea Monkeys, a Robotic Nanite Circus of Wonders, two minature RealMoomoos™, and a Genuine BobCo HoloHat.

  She`s currently talking to the hive matrons on Smokey Cone wearing the Holohat and petting her minature moomoos on the video conference to the other matrons.

  I think one is frothing at the mouth in envy.

  I better get a hand on this before there`s a riot.

  Wait, if it`s homicidal, why isn`t anyone worried?

  Because technically it isn`t an AI or a Digital Sentience or even a digitized Terran.

  It`s this weird blending of the two.

  Because Bob "Caveman" Johnson was a complete psycho.

  Technically, he wasn`t a psychopath. He was just... over-imaginative with a lack of ethics and morals in some specific areas.

  He`s a little busy. The BobCo SolNet "Always Online™" store is so overloaded it`s actually reverted to a 2.5D storefront with limited interaction.

  AHA!

  They DO still sell Fantabulosa Pond Paddling No-Windup™ Squeaky Ducklings that sing over 100 duckling songs.

  OUT OF STOCK!

  Dammit, there was 1.2 million left when I read that out loud, now it`s "Temporarily Out of Stock".

  Oh, hey, I get a free sixty four ounce container of BobCo Muscle-Max Ultra Sick Gains Powder for my trouble.

  Score!

  About that AI...

  ---NOTHING FOLLOWS---

  MANTID FREE WORLDS

  It`s complicated. It`s a cross between programmed AI, one of the first baked hash shredded rainbow salted table genesis systems, and a neural recording of Bob Johnson himself all mushed together.

  And just as crazy as the original Bob Johnson.
