Sound off. I was asked today what kind of robot I would be. It got me to thinking.

It's a BS poll because it didn't include Marvin, the depressed robot from "Hitchhiker."

(111,437 posts)Brain the size of a planet and they want me to watch You Tube videos. The unfairness of it all.
Don't mind me, I'll just stand in the corner and wait to rust solid.

It's him or Kryten from Red Dwarf:
I would have said Holly, but he's not a robot, he's a computer program:

(13,485 posts)That's me.
mythology
(9,527 posts)HAL from 2001, the WOPR from Wargames or Antrax from the book of the same name. The latter is most likely given the number of books I am constantly tripping over, but refuse to get rid of because I like having knowledge at hand.
Of course, two of those three are villains and the other nearly started WW III, so perhaps I should have somebody unplug me just to be safe.

(2,289 posts)I would also like to have a Tachikoma in the garage.
kentauros
(29,414 posts)Or whatever workers' rights system they were beginning to emulate
Tyrs WolfDaemon
(2,289 posts)I'm sure she can use the net to visit with her tachikoma friends that are far away and for those that are just down the street, we can let her have play days.

kentauros
(29,414 posts)One of the best American animated movies in a long time, and since. Plus, it was "old skool" animation, not 3D (not that's there's no good 3D, only that it's all we get anymore, other than anime from Miyazaki.)

kentauros
(29,414 posts)Not sure what would happen to him after he reassembled. I would assume he'd refuse military work, and what could they do to force him that way?
He'd probably work for Dean, finding derelict vehicles, making abstract art, and eating leftover metal

However, this one is babe-o-roboto-rific!

Otherwise, I will continue to fight the arrival of their time.
