Mar 5 2009Wait, Where'd He Go?: Urban Camoflauge
There's a robot war to be fought, and regular camo simply won't do. Enter Urban Camouflage, a new kind of outwear that keeps you safe and hidden from a robot's lifeless stare. Urban camouflage comes in three different styles: boxes, bags, and, um, file folders or something. Hit the jump to see them all. Then make your own and practice hiding. LOOK OUT -- ROBOT BEHIND YOU! Haha -- not really, but I wanted you to realize the importance of the situation. Now go change your pants and make some camo.
Hit it for the rest and a link to a much larger gallery.
Thanks to e., who I may or may not be dating (hint: I am). Sorry ladies.

The file folders is my next Halloween costume, that is if I can't find the "sexy witch" or whatever costume... oh maybe there is a "sexy file folders" version? Because thats how chicks dress up for Halloween.

I will poop in the mouths of #1-5. Everyone else is safe.
8. cHINNY - March 5, 2009 11:53 AM
So, this will only help me if I'm being stalked at an office supply store?
At least I can hit up Staples without fearing for my life...

Lame camo and mouth pooping incidents... this day is going to suck.
13. Dancing Sheets - March 5, 2009 12:18 PM
I wonder how long these took to make. And why were the able to climb on everything in the store? ...I guess the workers had a slow day and had nothing better to do?

How many children are on this site talking about pooping? Go play XBOX
15. gizmoduck - March 5, 2009 12:22 PM

pooping is stupid. the human body is stupid.
i will duel anyone that disagrees.
the duel shall take place in outer space, and i will use my lazor that shoots out beta fishies that have lazors on their heads pew pew pew!

Are you really the cleverbot?
19. Doug McKay - March 5, 2009 12:27 PM
What's going on, dude? You know there ain't no robots. Pshhh, what an idiot!
We all know megatron is not real. Somebody needs to chillax... like GW.
20. V - March 5, 2009 12:27 PM
Does anybody else find it obvious that boxes would never really stack up like that?
21. Watch - March 5, 2009 12:32 PM
In those other pohotos, those are ghillie suits for office Nerf snipers for an office war.
22. Pew³ - March 5, 2009 12:41 PM
I have been summoned!
Someone has awakened me for a duel?!!?!
23. Cthagua - March 5, 2009 12:47 PM
Apparently IKEA employees have WAY too much time on their hands...
24. EZgeek - March 5, 2009 12:56 PM
GW is taken???? nooooooo my life is meaningless!
25. MAFers - March 5, 2009 1:24 PM
Oh. The bag camo is pretty dangerous.
26. Erik - March 5, 2009 1:36 PM
You're a bunch of imbeciles . . . You seriously think covering up your bodies is going to help? Did you forget that robots have thermal vision?
Seriously, man. Go ahead and cover yourself up in boxes and shit. The last thought going through your head when the skin is melting off your bones will be "But I'm wearing bags?!?!?!"
27. r-tard - March 5, 2009 2:00 PM
thermal vision is for pussy robots. REAL robots just rock-n-sock.
PEW PEW PEW there goes your head you blue son of a bitch!
28. JJtoob - March 5, 2009 2:07 PM
@26 Boxes, folders, bags, that's for the regular light spectrum on robots' cameras, but inside there might be insulation to keep yourself hidden from their thermal sensors.
Just watch out, robots will adapt to this technique and use this camo to make you think they are human.
29. X - March 5, 2009 2:38 PM
The bag one looks the most natural.... are these for sale or just for fun?
30. Azurise - March 5, 2009 3:08 PM
@12 I'm sorry your day sucks, you just made mine. haha
31. Billy D Willams - March 5, 2009 3:13 PM
Just for fun? This is war, gaffot, get with the progam. These aren't fun. They aren't fun to make and they aren't fun to look at or read about on a crappy blog ... but we do it because we have to.
It's a life lesson and shit.
32. BK - March 5, 2009 3:15 PM
@28 That's why you need Robot Camouflage like me. Yes, you risk being shot by humans. But are bullets really scary when you consider the robots have lasers? No, they aren't. Why do you think the robots dress like robots?
And @26, you must cover yourself in mud before putting the suit on. Everyone knows that.
33. The Bailey - March 5, 2009 3:26 PM
Don't wear the box one at an office store! They might put you in the compactor
34. Mr. Angry - March 5, 2009 4:19 PM

i want to see a video of these in use to scare people.
42. J - March 11, 2009 1:24 AM
That last picture is so cool.
I want them all!
Imagine sitting on a street corner in the one of boxes or bags, and some hobo comes up to try and steal them, then you scream and say "LEAVE ME ALONE, BITCH!"
Then he beats you up with his plastic baseball bat, while hollering "THE DEBIL IS HERE! THE DEBIL IS HERE!"
43. killswitch - March 11, 2009 4:38 PM
I prefer to be a human disguised as a robot disguised as a human. Works every time.
44. Optimus - March 12, 2009 8:10 AM
This is something else. I like the idea of the boxes but the folders however very detailed does not seem to be sensible. I would do this like in a Walmart or something.
45. madsunday - March 12, 2009 10:48 AM
