Mildly irksome verbal tics (not mine) nr. 261
You know the tiresome people who go 'Stupid $inanimate_object!' when $inanimate_object has failed to live up to their physics- and/or sense-defying expectations?

I mean, your toaster will put up with an amount of well-intentioned humour, but their constant mithering and blame-shifting will begin to grate, and before they know it, they'll be up before the beak at the European Court of Robot Rights. And not before time, the horrible bigots.
