The machines have taken over
Well according to James Cameron, April 19th 2011 was the date that Skynet became self aware and started a war with mankind and the machines took over.
I reckon the machines have already taken over.
iPad, Xoom, iPhone, Xbox, Wii, Playstation, Personal Video Recorders, not to mention being stuck in front of a PC on MR.
We are already slaves to the machines.

I'm guessing that the reason nobody has replied to this so far is that everybody is scared of upsetting our machine overlords.

Come on people - stand up for mankind!

I've tried to reply to this six times, but my PC crashed each time I hit the submit button.

So I sent this from my phone. Ha!

Anyway, you obviously missed the moment when the real machines took over: Colossus and Guardian in 1966.

Must be glitch in the Matrix, how can I take the red pill if you're holding a blue and a green one?

If I take both pills, does that make me have a wicked acid trip?
