You belong in LOLBOTS!
I took a couple screen grabs - the first one shows off the Bot better... ≡ Click to see image ≡
...but the second one takes in more of the other people in the parade... ≡ Click to see image ≡
Now, all you have to do is
(1) tell me which one to use
(2) come up with a LOL-ic caption (I have some ideas, but I'll let others go first)
actually, does it count as a self-post if I wasn't the one who created the original link? Can we get a ruling? Or a witness? Or a what-what?
We'll get back to you when we can find someone who gives a flying fuck.
then you are within the limits of the law, and can carry on normally as you usually do.
bmarkey, you're skating on thin ice here, but I'll let you slide THIS TIME if you unbutton the top pants button OR the top two shirt buttons to achieve heaveage. Await further instruction.
Decisions, decisions. Top pants button won't work, as I'm wearing a belt; top shirt buttons make it look like I should have a coke spoon dangling in my chest hair.
okay, this time. But I can't go make exceptions for everyone, you know, so, um, if you could just quit that job and get one that will accommodate a pantsless state, that'd be great.
Well, I'm at work too, so I can't take off my pants and I'm wearing a tie, so undoing the buttons won't work either. Ditto the coke spoon in the chest hair thing, too. Yuck!
What a bunch of fucking killjoys we all are.
Wow dg, you're cranky tonight. First you tell cortex he has a small penis and now you insult a dancing robot?
Well, I'll cop to the suggesting cortex has a small penis (although you started it), but I wasn't insulting the robot - I haven't even seen it because I'm at work (work = NO to youtube). I was saying that nobody gives a fuck if it's a double-post - not here, anyway.
SPD pulled me over on the way home; the officer wanted to know why I was driving with my pants flying from the radio antenna like a gray flannel flag. I told him that taz told me to do it.
I'm supposed to report for counseling next Monday.
Yeah, I went against my better judgement and took mine off while I was waiting at the train station. Now I'm on the train on the way home and, while it's kind of pleasant sitting here with my notebook on my naked lap, I'm getting some odd looks and I think someone is speaking to the driver on the intercom at the other end of the carriage.
I'm not sure that this blind obedience to taz is such a good idea, somehow.
I mean, first, you had to decide you were actually going to be in the parade. And, then, you had the idea of being a robot. And then, you actually made a kick-ass robot costume. And then, you actually went and danced down the street in your robot costume.
I don't know about anyone else, but that's at least four giant leaps outside of my creativity level and comfort zone. Absolutely inspiring.
Also, I love the person who shouts, "Hey! Robot!" at the start of the clip.
