He wasn't murdered, he uh...TRIPPED!  Yes, yes.  Tripped.  :D


Honestly, I'm surprised he lasted 12 HOURS, let alone days. :noid

Was it found on the side of the road on cinder blocks?

No surprise in Philly, would expect the same in Detroit or East St Louis. Next one should have a remote self destruct for vandals

The robot was a social experiment.
Now we know that Philadelphians, unlike most of the western world, will not feel empathy for a robot that collects information on your location just because someone put a smiley face on it.
Which only means that Philadelphia will be one of the last cities to fall to the robots (or will it just be targeted first?).
It passed the test.

Philadelphia threw snowballs at Santa Claus.  Some hippie hitchhiking robot doesn't stand a chance.

That was about 40 hours after he'd initially shot it with an arrow.

Because, y'know, killin' stuff is cool, fo' real.

I spend alot of time in Philly.....robot never stood a chance.  I'm curious who the A-hat was that thought it would be a good idea to let it roam there, or any major US city

Stupid illegal immigrant hitchhikers shouldn't be here anyhow.  How many times had he been in and out of jail here before his last release?  How many names had he used for his "tourist" VISA?  Get in line with everyone else, stupid line jumper robot got what he deserved I tell you what.

Philly, like he said...

If it had strayed near Detroit, they wouldn't have found any part of it.

If it stayed near detroit, it would of been stolen, painted silver and gold, spinners on 26" wheels, tinted screen, and a overly annoying sound system. Of course it wouldnt be stolen, someone bought it that way
