 Tik Tok is one of those accidental finds that I never would have heard of or picked up if I hadn't seen it on a shelf at my favorite used book store and boy am I glad I did. It is one of the best examples of social satire in science fiction that I have ever read. It is about a household robot in the near future who realizes that there really is nothing stopping him from making his own decisions. He begins doing whatever he feels like doing on his own and nobody ever questions him because everyone assumes that he's carrying out some orders from some human. He ends up running for vice president of the United States.
