    Yeah ok I mean that’s literally what’s happening. But is there a joke? Or something unexpected, insightful, thoughtful, humorous, something special or of any significance other than a random statement? What’s sad about it? Why a robot? Why a liebot? Is he lying?

    Tbh I still don’t really get it.

      Thank you, my thoughts exactly. Tragic is not exactly the same thing as sad.

    The punchline is the setup. It’s an anti joke. Perhaps a bad one, even.
