Algorithmic Waves (Part 1)
A designer wonders why a machine has arrived at his household.
Code is everywhere. Manny Hatfield punched in the search engine query. It brought up an array of questions. The solutions returned with lightning speed. “What are robots?” “What kind of machines exist?” “Who owns a robot, themselves?”
The answers startled Hatfield. He recoiled.
He looked over in the corner at the carbon fiber robot that he had found in his home. He didn’t know how it got there or who had placed it there.
In the time that his heart punched in his chest, his mind searched like the engine he had entered the queries.
He took his time beautifully.

Breath issued from Angelica’s mouth. The weight of the baby put her into her chair. Her curves managed to say she had not been with child the whole time. There seemed to be a fantastic ideal swimming somewhere in her mind about the hazards of caring for two. She grabbed a magazine and fanned herself, knowing that she expended more energy in that effort sitting still and letting the air conditioning do the job. No, she told herself, without struggle there is no triumph. She switched on the television set. The picture looked as people had been replaced by blue aliens and she just watched her soap opera, void of extraterrestrials for this time.

10 Times Rotten Tomatoes and I Disagreed
***Disclaimer*** I will be ranking these movies in the following manner: The greater the divide between Rotten Tomatoes and I, the higher up on the list (and I am referring to the critic's score, not the audience score). I will also show Rotten Tomatoes' score on each one in addition to my score. I am curious to know what everyone thinks, please let me know in the comments below!
