It Had to Happen

Something I rarely ever do is click on the Google Adsense links in the sidebar and at the top of the page. (Although I highly recommend that you, dear reader, check out this valuable information and click, click, click your way to a brighter tomorrow.) But I just couldn’t resist the one that read:

Used Robots

I figured it had to be a joke. But follow the link… it’s on the level.

I love this line: “Personally serving customers since 1983.”

I bet a lot of the robots they can’t move are programmed for etiquette and protocol. Who needs that?

    Nobody. All we really need are robots who understand the binary language of moisture vaporators.

    That and speak Bocce.

    Well, in a pinch I understand you can get by with a unit programmed to talk to binary load-lifters — very similar to moisture vaporators in most respects.

    I can’t help but wonder what was the google search that yielded the used robot adsense. Your surprise at seeing the ad suggests it wasn’t “used robots”.

    And despite the other two comments, I doubt you were looking for props from the back lot at ILM.

    You’re right. Who needs props? I want a real working droid…something to help me navigate my y-wing fighter.

    BTW, glad to see you’ve been stopping by!
