May 6 2009Just What We Need: Robots On Facebook
That's right folks, Facebook, long considered one of humanity's last strongholds, is being breached by robots. Warning: under no circumstances should you accept a robot's friend request. And don't let them fool you with Superpokes and Virtual Drinks, THEY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED METALIZED AND DANGEROUS.
Researchers are giving a robot its own Facebook profile page to help foster meaningful relationships with people. The page will be populated with interactions the robot has with people as well as photos of the time it spends in human company.Its creators hope that embedding it in a social web will give rise to a sustainable friendship can grow up between man and machine.
Umm, how about NO THANKS. Now how in the hell are we supposed to tell friend from robotic foe? I swear, if I catch that robobastard trying to infiltrate the Geekologie Fan page, it is GAME OVER AND LIGHTS OUT. Then lights back on while I find my stuffed dinosaur. THEN LIGHTS OUT AGAIN AND A BUNCH OF GROANING AND RAWR!

Thanks to ffffffffffffffffff, Aaron, Bilal, Gareth, Kim and Dylan "Free Sex!", who should totally take the 'What Disney Princess Are You' quiz that I just did. I'm Belle!

I am proud to say I have NEVER been to facebook.com
I assume it's like MySpace to, which I am ashamed to say, I have been to.
Social-networking Websites = The fall of humanity

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell it's a fake because the shadows are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max
went on a date with a woman who turned out to be a terminator robot. He threw his glass of water over the robot and frazzled her circuits only to realize she was a sex robot.

Chatting with robot? make new friendship with robot? yes and maybe tell where do you live and where your kids go to school, your credit's card pin code and the breast size of your wife? I have some souspiciuos with that binladen face looking cyborg but maybe it's only my impression, maybe not only all terroryst looking cyborg are going to invade and destroy the USA (that seems to be the only country beeing attacked by terrorysts)

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie NEver Back Down where Max was helping Baja rake the shreaded prostitute parts off her lawn. They made a big pile, and then started jumping into them as if they were leaves.

My brute is nothing but gay corpse porn.
Can't wait for the site owner to ban the dickhead posting this crap and then I hope said dickhead gets shot in a drive-by.

STOP WITH THE FCUKING ROBOT STORIES ALREADY!!!! WRITE ABOUT AREAL STORY ALREADY GW!!!!
26. Gando - May 7, 2009 7:38 AM
They're probably trying to modernize Ali Baba.How about a good shave first?
27. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - May 7, 2009 7:42 AM
Oh NO! Not ROBOTS! I'm so scared. While the GW is busy trying some inter-species gay loving with the DinoSaucers, I'll be chillin with Voltron and Optimus Prime. Seriously, when it comes to the comparison of dinos vs robots, robots win every time.

I would have expect this from Japan not the Middle East.That's the most surprising part.We always forget that there're modern high tech places in the Middle East.They should invest more in these kind of projects instead of only tourism.
29. Timbo - May 7, 2009 8:20 AM
I don't mind the robots stories....
I don't like the shameless plugging of losers *cough(Captian)cough* trying to get me to look at their crappy website...
Stay strong Daisy
