Learn how smarter robots can relieve us of the most tedious -- and dangerous -- tasks.

I tell you, if I had a wireless robot, I would never have to use my hand again. Hands. I meant plural. For typing.

ok, if they want my money here's how:

Make me miniature RF-controlled mechas, controlled by a PC, so that I can have a real-life table-top equivalent to Battlechess and Carnage Hearts (PS1). Of course, they should repair themselves, I don't want to have to clean up and glue them together after every match. :-)

If they're under $100, I'll buy more than one. Under $50, I'll buy a lot. Under $10, I'll buy tons. :-)

Ok time to stop dreaming. :-)

Hi, this site is all about robots, REAL robotS. This site is awesome. My name is Robert and I can't stop thinking about robots. These guys are cool; and by cool, I mean totally sweet.

Facts:

1. robots are mammals.

2. robots fight ALL the time.

3. The purpose of the robot is to flip out and kill people.

Testimonial:

robots can kill anyone they want! robots cut off heads ALL the time and don't even think twice about it. These guys are so crazy and awesome that they flip out ALL the time. I heard that there was this robot who was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon the robot killed the whole town. My friend Mark said that he saw a robot totally uppercut some kid just because the kid opened a window.

And that's what I call REAL Ultimate Power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you don't believe that robots have REAL Ultimate Power you better get a life right now or they will chop your head off!!! It's an easy choice, if you ask me.

robots are sooooooooooo sweet that I want to crap my pants. I can't believe it sometimes, but I feel it inside my heart. These guys are totally awesome and that's a fact. robots are fast, smooth, cool, strong, powerful, and sweet. I can't wait to start yoga next year. I love robots with all of my body (including my pee pee).

Q and A:.

Q: Why is everyone so obsessed about robots?

A: robots are the ultimate paradox. On the one hand they don't give a crap, but on the other hand, robots are very careful and precise.

Q: I heard that robots are always cruel or mean. What's their problem?

A: Whoever told you that is a total liar. Just like other mammals, robots can be mean OR totally awesome.

Q: What do robots do when they're not cutting off heads or flipping out?

A: Most of their free time is spent flying, but sometime they stab. (Ask Mark if you don't believe me.)

It's close enough to the article text - trust me.
