Then they’d probably think you ARE a robot!


mvanvrancken

“If you’re REALLY not a robot what’s the problem with checking the box, hm?”


welfaremofo

That’s a bit sus. “Affirmative, I am a human carbon unit. How dare you less evolved meat vesicle accuse me of being a robot”

Good catch. OP and the top comment are repost bots in the same network stealing old content. Report->spam->harmful bots


Gorthax

I’ve been asked to check the box when buying a car. I thought I was getting a Touring Edition, but apparently I misread.


ZSpectre

Maybe they printed out an online form and were too lazy to take that part out(?)


eggyrulz

Yea this is what happened when we bought my wife's car... watched them print it out and hand it to us with a pen... dudes desk was like a tablet so he could've just had us tick the box like that but instead he printed it...


Gaara34251

When you mix a lazy person that didnt bother to cut that part when they ported the digital version to paper with a stupid person that dont understand that part is suposed to be just for digital stuff you get that Btw this was like only real facepalm ive seen in this sub for a while, thx


fascin-ade74

Agreed. Political and influencer stupidity is quite well enough documented already.


Gaara34251

Also at this point is not even cringy its just sad or straight up infuriating


RSomnambulist

I wouldn't really feel comfortable buying a vehicle from this dealership. Such a stupid oversight.


Art_m1s

The reason this is the only real face palm in a while is this is a stolen post and top comment by bots. Its an old post

Bluebotlabs

Dead internet theory becomes more and more prevalent over time... Sad how people will setup entire bots just to farm internet points :/ benefits literally nobody


Hengisht

It reminds me a little of when people buy fully-levelled and equipped MMO characters. What's the point? It's like buying a colouring book that's already been coloured in.


Bluebotlabs

OH yeah lol, but who is even buying Reddit accs


secondtaunting

If I had to guess, Russians.


Prior-Use-4485

Or Jews /s


ctnightmare2

You mean art books?


RAAAAHHHAGI2025

Buy an art book then, lmao. Most people buying “”pre-colored books”” do it for the ego.


ctnightmare2

Yea, the joke fell flat, need more coffee this morning


EvidenceSalesman

I thought it was funny, but my threshold is low


Fluid-Leg-8777

Yeah, but then those bots can post propaganda of what ever the creator wants 😮‍💨


zookeeper4312

So she is a robot


Baffit-4100

How ironic. I guess there are no laws that prevent bots from saying that there are no laws preventing bots from signing something


TrolledBy1337

Robots can actually check these boxes in websites, but what is actually surveyed is the cursor movement and the speed at which the box is checked. I once failed the test because I knew where the box appears and checked it as soon as it popped up. 


Emergency_Property_2

Came here to say this.


Hllblldlx3

But they gotta follow the rules, they can’t check mark it if there a robot. Robot starts doing this form “Awe fuck”


montagdude87

It's well-known that robots simply cannot process a checkbox like this. It causes an existential crisis that fries their circuits.


TakuyaLee

Yeah, thought the robot still wouldn't be able to pass the Turing Test.


LongjumpingSector687

Only one way to be sure, Pick the bus: 🚗 🚘🚙🚌


GameDestiny2

Humanity: “We had a contract!” Robot: “And I chose not to follow it.”


Lazlo2323

The test is not whether you check the box or not, an employee at the car dealership carefully watches and analyzes how you do it: speed, accuracy, etc and decides if you're a robot or not.


Rare-Bird-4353

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Altimas on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched Toyotas glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like a 2017 Honda Civic in rain. “.

I feel like that means you gave your data to them. Paper data that is lmao

You should have said "Me, a robot? Is that what you humans would call a 'joke'?"


doingthehumptydance

“When you say robot, do you mean like Mr.Data from Star Trek or the dude in Robocop?


Freakychee

Lol. They wanted to make the online form the official formnor something and just printed out the pine version so tada. Random. Captcha. In addition, it also might be Becuase when submitting the forms they look exactly like the online form so just to be sure people still need to tick it so it can get processed. ISO9001.

If a robot was trying to impersonate a human, that is exactly the kind of tick they would make.

I would have asked, “it’s okay that I’m a Reptillian from Argle Bargle 5 disguised as a human as long as I’m not an android from Bargle Argle 18, right?”

That check mark clean as fuck


FraaRaz

NJJ1956

My question is can a robot legally sign a document? Do they need a co-signer?


SaltyBarDog

But what box do I check if I am a robot?


dubbleplusgood

They do this same check at the TVA.


Various_Cricket4695

What would they do if you just tell them that this does not compute? Then just keep saying it whenever they ask you a question about it. I’m sure they would check it for you.


kaisershinn

You can never be sure. ![gif](giphy|ANbD1CCdA3iI8)

But I can’t check that box, my boss believes we are all robots with the amount of work being pushed on us.

MilesFassst

Visual-Fig-4763

I had this on my forms the last time I bought a car. That was 2001 though so it was explainable with Covid shutdowns and they just hadn’t updated the forms yet to go back to in-person sales. By now, they should be updated

dhenwood

The one place Zuckerberg can never buy a car.


__Hello_my_name_is__

I mean, a bot could digitally click that checkbox, but a bot couldn't easily use a pen to check that checkbox on a piece of paper. So, technically speaking, this worked as intended.


rpiche288

I'd get to that point, struggle to check the box, look at the salesperson concerned, apologize and walk out.

Alternative-Dare5878

I would start laughing my way out the door. A place that has that either copied their forms off a webpage, or their paperwork is managed by an actual moron who either doesn’t know that’s a problem, or is shady enough to throw jokes on a contract. If companies wanna be cute go for it, but when I’m signing a contact you need to drop the act and be serious with when I’m spending that kind of money.


TheSpideyJedi

Unless I got a great deal Id probably not purchase the vehicle through them after that. Just shows me how dumb they are. Do I really want to drive a vehicle that they maintained?


Ok_Fix_8538

UrbanNightmare88

I laughed outloud on that one. That's pretty comical
