Buddy-Not-Bud, Not-Bud-Buddy, and Not-Buddy-Bud
One day there was a creator who loved making robots. He made a robot one day and named it Buddy-Not-Bud. The creator made the robot so that the robot could do all of the chores he had to do.
Suddenly, after years of doing all of the orders from Buddy-Not-Bud’s creator, he realized he didn’t want to be his servant his whole entire life. He ran off to a different location far, far away from the location of his old home.
When Buddy-Not-Bud realized what he was doing was not the best idea he had in his life, it was pretty clear that it was too late to turn back to his old home. He regretted everything he did. He also realized that he needed a special kind of food energy source, that only his creator had for him. That was when he started feeling hungry because he was thinking about food.
Ironically, there was another robot that got in the same situation as Buddy-Not-Bud! There was a robot that ditched his creator because of mistreatment. The robot’s name was Not-Bud-Buddy. It was kind of like Buddy-Not-Bud’s name but switched around. Not-Bud-Buddy felt just like Buddy-Not-Bud.
Ironically, again, there was another robot named Not-Buddy-Bud.
