MindStorms Madness

plluke writes "I'm a Teaching Assistant for a course named CS148: Building Intelligent Robots offered by the CS Department at Brown University. Our robots were made/programmed/run on Lego MindStorms (with LegOS). Tres funky results include probabilistic sonar mappers, a bipedal walker, and a bartender. The final exhibition page is here and contains the aforementioned funky results."

    Bah, I made a bipedal walker out of Robotix when I was 10 years old. Great toy, by the way.

      Funny things to do to your coworkers
      10. Keep telling the same person that they have bad breath even if
      they don't, and then punch them in the face.
      9. Announce in a meeting that you have AIDS. After everyone gives you the sympathy remarks, tell everyone how you're just kidding and tell
      them that they are all a bunch of fucking queers.
      8. Before a meeting, fill your mouth with custard. Then during the meeting, put one finger in the air and make like you are hocking up a big loogie. Then spit the custard into a clear glass and hand it to the person next to you and say, "Beat That."
      7. Inform a male co-worker that he "wouldn't make a good hooker." Then piss in his coffee and tell him that he needs a good ass fucking.
      6. Always walk around with a big smile on your face and keep one hand down your pants.
      5. Answer every question asked to you with "Fuck if I know" then call the person a racial slur that doesn't even match their race.
      4. Brag about the fact that you own a gun, and keep playing with your nuts. Get them really sweaty, and then walk around shaking everyone's hand.
      3. Shit on the floor in your office and when someone comes in and sees it, tell them it's the fake plastic kind. When they try to pick it up, and realize that their hand is full of shit, laugh and point.
      2. Run down the hall with your dick out while pissing all over and yell, "It won't stop! God help me! It won't stop!" Then when it stops, look down and say, "Oh."
      1. Ask to borrow someone's pen. Bring it to the bathroom and stick it in your ass. Return it and tell the person to smell it. When they tell you it smells bad, be like, "It should! I had it in my ass!"

    Verily, I request my phallus be suckled by a young lad! Oh, Mr. Katz? May I borrow one of your nubile harem boys? I promise I shan't return him sticky or bruised.
