Day 278 – Farm Bot

Really, the robot uprising will totally turn once they realize that if they take over our farms they can force us the eat nothing but turnips. Who needs a bloody revolt when you can win through age-old parenting methods? They could just be all like “nothing but cauliflower until you BOW BEFORE YOUR ROBOT OVERLORDS” and we’d be all like “crap”.

Day 276 – Napoleon Bot

It’s been awhile since high school history class, and I realized that I really only have two hazy recollections about Napoleon: he was a french dude who did some stuff, and he was shorty mcshortshort.

So, I thought I should probably fact check this, mostly because all I really remember about this unit was that the teacher played ABBA’s “Waterloo” for us (warning, the first bit of that video will totally give you seizures. And not just because of what Bjorn is wearing.). So I went where we all go when fact checking is needed: the Wikipedia.

The consensus:

1. Napoleon: TOTALLY FRENCH
2. Napoleon: TOTALLY A DUDE
3. Napoleon: TOTALLY DID SOME STUFF
4. Napoleon: TOTALLY WHO ABBA WAS SINGING ABOUT
5. Napoleon: NOT ACTUALLY THAT SHORT AFTER ALL.

So there you go. Mr. Bonaparte wasn’t labouring under a need to prove himself because of a height complex, he was labouring under a need to prove himself so he could take command and rule the world. Just like every other General-type dude in history.

Day 274 – Rapunzel Bot

I always have wondered if rapunzel was a dude, if it would have been a beard that was climbed instead of long hair…..

Day 269 – David Suzuki Bot

Normally, I try to stay away from doing bots based on real people, but my brother’s been pulling for a David Suzuki bot for a long while now.

Though I don’t think this particular image is what he had in mind.

I’m tricky like that.

Don’t get it? David Suzuki is a Canadian Super Genius of Science and Being Awesome. Famously, he appeared clad only in a leaf on the cover of TV Guide in 1999; at which time he was 64. I’m not really sure what that has to do with saving the planet, though. But hey, if he ever decides to take up a superhero costume, we know spandex is a good option.

Day 257 – Yellow Polkadot Bikini Bot

Well, compared to what I’ve seen on tv, this isn’t exactly an itsy bitsy teeny tiny bikini, but it’s hard to make a tiny square bikini. Although…. it is a robot, so it’s more of a fashion statement than needed modesty.

Day 252 – Fortune Teller Bot

Do you really want a robot telling you the future? You’d be all like “will I marry Prince Charming?” and it’ll be all like “DOES NOT COMPUTE”. At least it’s not a vulcan robot fortune teller. Then it’d be all like “DOES NOT COMPUTE; LOVE IS ILLOGICAL”.

Also, except when it comes to certainties, like, oh, the sun rising, and
Hollywood resurrecting movie franchises that were well enough over and done*, no one knows what’s coming in the great pipeline of THE FUTURE. Though I predict! More Robots.

*okay, fine. Star Trek was pretty good. Better, actually, than the previous movies. Except the one with the whales. But I stand by the rest. Come on, Rocky? Like we needed another of those.
