Classic Robot

old schoolDon't you hate it when there's that one guy who thinks everything classic or vintage is better than new stuff? Well that's Classic Robot. He only exists to be a robot that works on legacy software and hardware. He can't do much beyond that. Sometimes he will think that he's the latest robot model and get low self esteem. Then his memory gets full and he resets and he forgets. He is a big fan of 1970's television shows.

Updater

he update The Updater is a robot who only knows how to update things. He is great for large offices. He wanders into each room and if a computer, blog or data system needs updating he'll sit and make it happen. He loves RSS feeds. He also one time went on a date, but only because he was misled and thought it was an update.

Wranglebot


The Wrangling Robot is one sly robot. He goes out of his way to make sure his cowboy duties are done every day. He functions as a hybrid of a scarecrow and a wrangler. He doesn't leave the field much. He thinks that Ronald Reagan created him.

The Alert-Bot says "Uh-Oh!"

UH OHThis is the Alert-Bot. He is a small robot, built for portability. He walks around many places and looks for trouble. He doesn't start the trouble, he just likes to be there. Whenever he sees a troublesome act, he says "Uh-Oh repeatedly until the trouble is gone. He is built only to alert people of dangerous situations. He has a dangometer which tells him when danger is too high. He is genuinely scared for our well being, and can only think to say "Uh-Oh" instead of run or help.

His arms are always up. It's a design flaw, but he thinks it makes him look more alerting so he doesn't mind.

I am putting Alert-Bot up in honor of my niece who I taught the word "Uh-Oh" to the other day.

Speakerbottt/The Love Below

The Love BelowSometimes we all feel we have something to say, but we can't find the words. The same can be said for Speaker-Bot. He is a robot designed to output sound. Speaker-Bot doesn't make sounds independently from a source of input. He has many things he feels the need to say, but cannot express himself. In a large group of robots, he might think of a funny joke but he'll never be able to tell it. Speaker-Bot usually hangs out with other robots that can input data to create sounds.

When Speaker-Bot parties with his brobots, he goes by his street name: Speakerbottt.

I am rather fond of Speaker-Bot, he has a spot in the title.

Sometimes we are in crowds of people but can't find the words to say.

I Analyze and Process

This robot analyzes and processes information. After that, he discards it. He can spend all day researching information, but at the end of the day, its bye-bye Theresa to his information.
 It is a sad existence for a robot, but when he stops to think about how sad it is, he discards that information. Introspection has never been so wasteful. He enjoys taking in any movie multiple times.

I think we all have a little bit of this guy in us. I know my job is based around this concept. It's okay though, because I'd rather be like this little guy than to be a serverbot. R2D2 might have fared well in that barge, but it's a route I'd rather not go. I believe that we could all learn something from him, as well. Why let things bother us when we can just process said feelings and then discard them? It's something to ponder.
