Somehow I’m imagining a half-dozen trip-wires getting set off, firing another dozen vuvuzela-sounding alarms, and you and I both jumping out of our concealed hiding spots in opposite bushes, only to accidentally hit each other in the face with gumballs fired from slingshots. Anyways, the mental version of that is what that bot just did.
I desperately want this to be 100% real.
Just wait until we get to the lawn games portion of SnarkTrek 2012.
…and me in a net, swinging upside-down from the tree, snared by a Snarkbot! Thanks, fellas.
Whoa, Matthew, good post.
I like how this just became a Looney Tunes cartoon. Seems about right.
The snarkmatrix awaits you
