This actually sounds kind of cool and would be an interesting way to control pests. Just release a few hundred into the NY sewers and let em feast away!
I can't find the original, but reminds me of the Slugbot stories from 2001: http://www.wired.com/gadgets/miscellaneous/news/2001/10/47156
hmmm.. how would they know the difference between the sewer tunnels and the exposed anal openings of jets fan sitting on the crapper.. because you know how big of an az..errr, you can get it from here...
Apparently this isn't the only type of robot that can feed on flesh, our military picked up on the idea. Hmm... First question would be is it legal? I would imagine that alot of angry families would be upset to know that their loved ones were eaten by a robot. Unless we can guarantee that it only eats the other guys, then there is no issue here. Next, also a legal question, how would the robot know if the soldier was dead or just injured? Again you'll have a bunch of lawsuits. This might not be one of the best ideas that our military has come up with.
So I clicked on your link, but alas, I was redirected to another site that debunked the human flesh-eating robots. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,533382,00.html Anyone for conspiracy theories on this?
hey you were warned. don't come crying to us when one of your friends, stubs a toe, and wall-e eats him..........
And we move one step closer to the Robot Apocalypse. (To be followed shortly by the Zombie Apocalypse, stupid robots never saw that one coming!)
Then all that will be let is a rag tag group of 20 men and about 2000 half dressed women. I can't wait.
They updated their story after the company released a statement. They must not be mexican robots then...
we no they aren't white robots, white robots would just ***** and complain, pick up their government cheese check, then drink beers outside their trailer in the a kiddie pool all day....
