The Time Will Come. Are You Prepared?

Ryan Howard | 6 02 2008

Run... i mean Back away slowly. No! Play dead!It all started with the new header image I whipped up two days ago. It must have got my mind stuck on giant robots or something. I say this because when I went to Borders the next day, this fantastic piece of required reading caught my eye and just had to buy it immediately. From the author of “Where’s My Jetpack?” (a delightful guide on all the missing items we were promised in the 21st century), comes “How To Survive A Robot Uprising”. This informative guide will teach you how to deal with your cold steel adversaries when the time comes; everything from your standard Dr. Killall’s Death Machine to your own smart home gone to HAL. Whether you believe the end of the world will be dominated by giant robots or not, the end of the world will happen… it’s up to you to ensure its not the end of the world for mankind. The book has its own website as well so go on and check it out while your waiting for your books to ship.

Not everyone thinks robot control will be bad.
Some even see it as necessary and inevitable.

I agree, the best defense against a killer robot uprising is more powerful, friendly robots.

“Powerful” and “friendly” are oxymorons when dealing with thinking machines that will have the capability of tracking and killing people.

I never said thinking… that’s a debatable issue. I just said robots. Robots with solid “defend fleshy objects” logic. Don’t get me wrong, people will die. But this is all satire in the first place so I’ll just wait till it happens. After all I have my guide, so I’m prepared.
