In. Through. And Beyond!
Posted by Dead Robot in General, Robots on February 4, 2010
The other day I had to engage in a conversation with a woman on a professional level. No biggie.
Well, actually… biggie. She wasn’t fat but she wasn’t rail thin, either. Her size lent to the fact that her low cut, scoop neck top created the illusion of so much cleavage that I, for some reason, could not stop looking down there. I don’t consider myself misogynistic and as a gay man, I respect women and their fashion sense. But I could not stop looking at her fuckin rack, man!
Seriously, for whatever reason, I found it difficult to keep my eyes above the chin.
The lighting where we were created a Q-tip like shadow of cleavage, meaning: there was a bulbous shadow at the top of the straight line shadow that lead up from the scoop top. Peripherally I could see the oval darkness dead center of her pale chest (which I assume is why it was so distracting).
After struggling with not looking I suddenly got the urge to drop my pen in her cleavage. No lie. I wanted to toss my pen in there and listen for rattling or echos or a guttural burp from a Sarlacc.
For some reason this played in my head:
Guys…? Guys…?

Thanks to StevieB’s constant berating to shill product for his friend, Crank on RedBubble.com (who by the way you should purchase one of everything he’s made), I have decided to pop up some designs over there too. Expect the quality to rise as I figure out how to manipulate Bézier curves in Ai.
Giant Robot News
Posted by Dead Robot in Robots on September 29, 2009
I’m busy at work today so here are a couple giant robot news articles from Gizmodo to tide you over:
Japan has a giant Gundam robot that does things.
Oh and a giant Gigantor robot too in a much more dramatic pose.
Korea is getting their own Voltar (Huh? Still looks cool anyway) in 2012
This just in… Canada still does not have any significant robots other than the Canadarm on the ISS.

No! Not Lindsay Lohan’s career!
This videosode of one of Canada’s biggest TV scams is a bit dense, only because there is so much trivia I had to really hold back on a lot of it. If you want to learn more, why not visit your local library or pop in and see Wikipedia?

Formative Pop – Irwin Allen pt 2

B9? Or Y-M3? Or was it Gunther? Whatever you call him, the robot from Lost In Space was pretty cool:
Formative Pop – Irwin Allen Pt 2
Uploaded by deadrobotToronto – Full seasons and entire episodes online.
FYI here’s what the B9 figure says:
First bit: Japanese (Possibly “Danger! Danger!”?)
Second line: “Warning! Warning!”
Next: “Dinosaur!” Or something in Japanese
Then: A whole thwack of Japanese
Then: “I am sorry. It does not Compute.”
Suddenly: Another thwack of mumbled Japanese
Then: The most creepiest laugh ever. I don’t ever recall B9 laughing…
That’s One Dead Robot!

I’m burning old Space 1999 episodes to my iPhone. Remember kids, it’s not a crime to make copies of your legally obtained media for different devices… yet.
