    Am I the only one to question why the robot was alone in that neighborhood at such an hour ? And dressed that way? Probably was the robot's fault, if you ask me.

    Protect a hitch hiking robot from the bad guys? The only way is to give guns to the good robots.

    Was that dentist in Philly recently? The robot head is missing! This isn't a coincidence. Fucking robot trophy hunter.

    Oddly, Springsteen's "Streets of Philadelphia" lyrics work pretty well for dead-bot with no changes at all:

    "Streets Of Philadelphia"
    I was bruised and battered, I couldn't tell what I felt.
    I was unrecognizable to myself.
    I saw my reflection in a window, I didn't know my own face.
    Oh brother are you gonna leave me wastin' away
    On the Streets of Philadelphia.

    I walked the avenue, 'til my legs felt like stone,
    I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone,
    At night I could hear the blood in my veins,
    Black and whispering as the rain,
    On the Streets of Philadelphia.

    Ain't no angel gonna greet me.
    It's just you and I my friend.
    My clothes don't fit me no more,
    I walked a thousand miles
    Just to slip this skin.

    The night has fallen, I'm lyin' awake,
    I can feel myself fading away,
    So receive me brother with your faithless kiss,
    Or will we leave each other alone like this
    On the Streets of Philadelphia

    The "perp" juxtaposed against the "whistleblower," who is also a well-known prankster:

    This reminds me.

    This year marks the 25th anniversary of wiggers.

    Growing up in Philly, my mom used to tell me bedtime stories about the heroic deeds of "Always Teste," the network news troll.

    Nice. Especially considering today is the 10-year anniversary of the show's debut.
