Bob The Builder Gets A Personality Transplant

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the bob-now-needs-a-7-second-delay dept.

McCarrum writes "Here at 'undisclosed company,' there's been a push to bring a mascot into our IT team. After much discussion and many excellent ideas, the PHB made the executive decision on Bob the Builder. Enter one Bob the Builder talking doll. Talking?! By Crom, that means a chipset! (cue evil laugh) A quick bit of exploratory surgery and a little research later, we purchased the equipment to create EVIL BOB. Want to make your own EVIL BOB? Click the clicky clicky thing!"

    Crom was the accounting program (played by Peter Jurasik) in Tron.

    [...] my baby's toys. She seems to prefer Metallica over Twinkle Twinkle Little Star anyway

    Does this mean there's no hope for the future of free music? At least the classic folk melody, popularized by a five-year-old W.A. Mozart, is out of copyright and the decomposed composer doesn't insist upon users buying the CD. Your child needs educating about media industry politics!

    Hopefully it's just that your offspring's musical tastes are appropriate for her age group (i.e. seriously infantile - after all, my own kids were heavily into CMTV at that age...).
