Brb, buying every model of HP printer (gotta get a chance at going first, if you don't shoot you can't score)

That's not from lack of desire, but ability.

The spirit is willing, but the cord is short.

Man, imagine a printer with arms. You’re not surviving the night.

I got a shotgun, though. I think I've got a chance.

There was a bug in HP printers that let people remotely set them on fire.

[–] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

No, see, we only call it a bug if it isn't meant to be in the software. In this case, it's a feature.

While telling you it can't open the door because it's out of magenta.

In the early 2000s my hp printer had a paper jam and the error message from cups was “printer on fire!”

I’ve never had my printer murder motorcyclists

But I suspect it would if it could.
