Mechanical Mayhem

Make a robot out of spare things in the house

Ladies and gentlemen and artificial constructs, we bear witness to a wonderful birth. At the beginning of this evening my living room was but a mess, littered with cardboard, pvc pipe, and random novelties.


But now, with nothing more than a roll of duct tape and a pair of scissors, a miracle has occurred. Behold: the triumph of the WhoaBot.




Allow my to highlight a few of its many features.

 - Five independent wheels, allowing for fluid navigation and quick travel time.

- An all purpose cup-holder, for safe containment and easy transportation of liquids.

- Intense aviator glasses, serving as both sunlight regulators and style enhancers.

- A Viking hat and a spoon, providing both the image of furious intimidation and an easy means of soup consumption.

- Nitro brand snappers, for the best of surprising, annoying distractions.

- Wolf eye and attractive woman eye, imbuing the powers of wolf and attractive woman vision.

- A guitar, in case a sweet riff becomes necessary.

-Wings and streamers, for the utmost aerodynamic awesomeability.

- A knife, for stabbing.

The WhoaBot will serve as a faithful addition to our household, valiantly protecting us from wrong doers. Here is a picture of him on our front porch, threatening predators with his cold robot eyes of a wolf and an attractive woman:


Notice that his knife was replaced by a metal claw. This is because one of my housemates claimed they “didn’t want the neighborhood kids to have access to a knife.” Pishaw, WhoaBot relinquishes his weapon to no one.

Next: Run five miles.

  1. So incredible! For your future operation will you do an even bigger representation of Mangular? I think I need it so I can be sure as to whether I'd like to have offspring!!!

  2. I agree with your roommates... arming the neighborhood delinquents with a knife, however small and dull, is never a good idea. Might come back and stab you in the back some day, metaphorically speaking...
