    Very inventive with some nice and funny things to say about fate and the need for condoms.

    A funny but chilling two-hander about the nature of de-humanizing work and the utter uselessness of rampant consumerism. A modern twist on Bartleby the Scrivener and R.U.R. Very entertaining and thought-provoking.
