Don't bother worrying, Brian. There's no hope for you.
If we divide it into 11 statements, I got 4 1/2 of them, I think.
Gort!
? Klaatu Barada Nikto!
(I thought Army of Darkness but was wrong, so this counts as 1/2) Welcome Humans!
? We have come to visit you in peace and with goodwill!
? Robots may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
I, Robot - Isaac Asimov Robots have seen things you people wouldn't believe.
? Robots are Your Plastic Pal Who's Fun To Be With.
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams (Sirius Cybernetics marketing literature) Robots have shiny metal posteriors which should not be bitten.
Futurama - Matt Groening et al (Bender) And they have a plan.

Coyote's "I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords" link title was said in GTA Vice City on one of the radio shows. I'm just wondering if I'm missing a common reference that I should be made aware of.

"Robots have seen things you people wouldn't believe."
If I remember correctly, this quote is from Blade Runner.
