There’s nothing more excruciating than waiting for your friend to reply to an urgent message. That’s why one YouTuber created a robot that will stab you repeatedly until you answer your WhatsApp messages.

WhatsApp stab robot

We have so many questions. Is a missed WhatsApp message really worth bloodshed? Could this mad genius unleash a swarm of stab-bots to force our constant attention? Also, why does this exist?

The YouTube creator who posted this video makes things even more cryptic in his video description:

“Don’t try this. im talking about serious injuries. we all hate the people who are slow at reading messages. so i built this. Dont forget to share, like and subscribe. BTW michael this is no hate, just a reminder that there are people who can’t understand what you have done(at least one person).”

Who is Michael? What happened between these two? Is this passive-aggressive or straight-up regular-aggressive?

It’s 2019. We don’t have flying cars, but we do have stabby notification robots. Cool.
