Mar 7 2009Another Sleepless Night: Scary Robot Gallery
This is a little gallery of scary-ass robots that want to kill you so they can mate with your computer. This particular model is called "My Spoon" and was designed to help people with no arms or really sucky arms to eat. As you can see, it's about to choke out Japanese Health Minister Yoichi Masuzoe. God knows what's it's gonna do to him once he's out, but I suspect use his body as a breeding chamber for an army of nanobots. These nanobots will then invade our fresh water supply and, quite possibly, clog your faucet.
Hit the jump for gallery, and then hit the link at the end for a much larger, HD gallery with explanations of which each of the doomsday machines does.

Thanks to Alan, Jab, Dustin and Tim, who are now honorary members of FU-BOTS (Fairly Unorganized Brotherhood Of Technology Saboteurs) for bringing this to my attention.

judging by the pics, the japanese seem to think slapping a plastic cartoonish face on their robots makes them more sophisticated or something... probably "or something."

FAIL!! This post fails on so many levels. Who the hell cares!?
This is just like that time the Jetsons needed to get their apartment cleaned in 3 days because they were moving and had to get out before next months rent was due.
They found a company that would build them a maid that could clean up their filthy mess in less than 24 hours, but it would cost them. Jane was all about staying at home and shopping online and would have nothing of cleaning up after the kids and the dog so they decided it would be a great idea.
The robot maid turned out to be the maniacal creation of a demented wombat and it failed to clean their apartment in the time necessary. Elroy proceeded to dismantle the robot and sell the spare parts on eBay for extra cash. Judy was happy with the extra batteries and George was angry about having to pay an additional 4 days rent because they couldn't get the dog to stop peeing on the carpet.

you're all a bunch of rednecks!!! bobots are cool and probably smarter than you! they're here to do tasks that humans cannot or are too lazy to do. you drive cars,do you??? they're not going anywhere so you must start appreciating them because I know they'll be more common in the future.

The woman in #4 looks happy. She finally found something that would not refuse a hand job from the old hag.....even the dog ran away.
26. Clamdigger - March 9, 2009 12:12 AM
The next picture with all the bodies is after the company Chistmas party. Those dudes remembered getting drunk and pulling a train on the old hag....shot themselves in the dick then the head.

ZOMG! I've made a list of what each REALLY does.
1. Stabs the mouth
2. Latches on to head, eats brains.
3. Rips open chest.
4. Super grenade thrower thinamajigy
5. Stabby, Stabby, Stab Stab Stab!
6. Grabs body, stabs and leaves you alive, dumps you in its body with corpses.
7. Goes up Uranus, controls you.
8. Climbs up feet, eats you.
9. Chases you down alleys, mauls.
Lets hope they all malfunction.
