    Have you tried asking Maria to get a green card? If she’s not afraid, maybe she’ll stop hiding

    Well her being undocumented is really my fault (never sent in the registration card). That being said, if she gets legal will we have to provide health insurance?

    We adopted Bob second hand and my gf is a nurse, so we handle the healthcare at home.

    Just draw the blinds, no one will know she’s living with you. Fly under the radar (or under the recliner for Maria).

    Whenever ours is acting up I threaten to sign it up for Battle Bots. I’ve had mine for 10+ years and have done some pretty technical repairs on it with success. I love how most of the components are modular and can be replaced pretty easily.
    On the topic of them hiding, I swear, 9 times out of 10 when she finishes her cycle she hides under the most awkward piece of furniture. Probably some sort of code that the programmers thought would be fun to sneak in there.

    Way to go on the repair!

    I laughed way too hard at this, thank you for that!
    My sons (3 & 6) got to see a local robot fighting club demonstration at Cub Scouts, I told them when they want to build one we’ll model ours after Roomba and name it Doomba!

    Some flags and center console divider... lots of things on the wanted list.
    We named our Shark bot "The Meg"

    So you are not alone.

    Status update: Bob was scheduled to launch at 11am and he launched on schedule.
    Reports are indicating he's running into the same object over and over again, that's our good ol' Bob!

    Sorry, naming your roomba Bob just made me think he needs a little "boost"

    But will it rub?

    :rofl: I forgot about these commercials!


    I've tried searching but couldn't find this exact question, so this might require an all new thread.

    With the claymore mod Bob would for sure take down @Gregthespy 's Boomba :devil:

    Well I was gonna suggest making sure the contacts were good. I have a few neato botvacs and the oldest one (got stuck on basement duty, cats and all....), the concrete will let enough humidity through the contacts tarnish over enough to not charge correctly. Then I realized what I have my new one named..... you all have funny begine names.... I had to send mine into service with the name I had tagged.

    Edit: His name isn't toby.
