To be fair, helicopter drones aren’t constantly mumbling to themselves. Would you really want to be served a drink by a butler who was always talking under his breath? You’d wonder what sinister plot he was cooking up.
I love the martini glass in the second and third panel. There’s no verbal mention of it, yet the readers are drawn into noticing it and making their own conclusions about it.
The reason they do this is because it’s all that technology can do at this point. It’s not possible yet to create anti-gravity robots or robots with jet packs.
But if your car can fly, there’s no reason to get stuck behind that guy. You can go around him in an infinite number of ways. And as far as flying cars are concerned, the slow and highly visible guy will probably actually be the safest, however much he annoys other drivers.

That is golden. Why waste time on a robot that can’t even hold a drink?
Thank you for flying Briggs & Stratton Air – ‘a cut above the rest’!
Ha-ha-ha! Nicely done!
What a gas bag.

Plus, that SW drone can blow itself up.
Don’t need that going on inside the house (whose going to clean it up if the butler drone blows himself up?)
The… scullery drone? Just change the setting from “Remove Grime” to “Remove Debris”.

Very clever!
I have an awful, awful thought in relation to this, and I’m not sure if I should share it. How are y’all on awful thoughts?
That depends;
Do you have stairs in your house?

I was promised flying cars! Where are the flying cars?
Remember: if YOU get a flying car, that idiot who was driving twenty miles an hour in the passing lane, with his blinker on, ALSO gets a flying car.
Because of that, I’m perfectly happy without my flying car.
i totally agree with this sentiment.

We already have flying cars. Had them, rather. They just used up huge amounts of gas and crashed when they ran out. So they never went on the market.
“Flying cars” is just extreme-layman’s terms for “aeroplanes”
We’ve already got flying lawn mowers.

That is both fascinating and terrifying.
I can’t tell; are the blades giving it lift?
The fact you used “when” in panel four instead of using “if” makes it 10 x funnier. Great choice.
