HUG MY METAL TORSO*

The unsaid ending of the phrase "You're only human" is "...not some kind of robot." The expression would be more comforting if it was used in its full form.
Hey, your mistake might be embarrassing, but at least you're flesh and blood and not some kind of mechanical monster. That's a reminder you need when you're down.

Robots (and cyborgs and the like), while incapable of error, can't enjoy recreational drugs, cry plausibly or laugh without sounding evil.
