BD-1 was my boy though.
Hated BD-1 just like all the "funny" or "cute" droids in Star Wars. Maybe an uncanny valley thing, I don't know, or I just grew tired of it. The first dozen times I watched the OT, I thought 3PO and R2 were kinda funny but at some point they really started getting on my nerves.
Same with super smart-ass unfunny HK-47 in KotOR or HK-51 in SWTOR. So fucking annoying. Luckily they are optional companions in those games. And BD-1 can shove his "cute" beeping. Not impressed. I wish that trash heap was optional, too.

Oh, come on, the Golden Boy and R2 were really great characters. And if K-2SO from Rogue One finds out that you don't like droids, well... You asked for it.
