Robo-Sexuals

by Jrodius on 08/31/2010

So my new job has me working at a warehouse for a discount department store.  Imagine any evil nationwide entity where you choose to buy both tampons and TV’s and you have a 33% chance of being correct.  The fascinating thing about working here is I had no idea some of the crazy shit that crosses the shelves of America everyday.  I look at the things my employees move around everyday and am just fascinated at some of the things people have thought of to make a buck.

And every once in awhile I get super hater-jealous at an idea I can’t believe I didn’t think of.  Case in point, I present to you the Robo-Sapiens:

robosapien8

I don’t know anything about this product.  I don’t know if it is fun, if it’s cool or even if it functions.  All I know is that I am ridiculously jealous of the play on words that passed me by when I failed to turn “Homo” into “Robo”.  But as George Bush so elegantly put once upon a time, “Fool me once shame on… shame on you.  Fool me… you can’t get fooled again.”

So I have chosen today in this forum to announce my new line of adult action figures called Robo-Sexuals.  And like any good toy it has to have substance.  So instead of the age old classic kung-fu grip, Robo-Sexuals will just make a fist on one hand.   And we also know any good robo-toy needs to have transformation powers.  So the other hand will shape-shift into a lube dispensing power cannon.  The robot comes dressed in a finely tailored suit but when its light meter senses that it’s after 9:00pm the suit transforms into cut off jeans, mesh shirt and ascot.

However understanding my target market I do understand that not every person would openly play with the toy so for those still not ready to take the plunge there is the Limited “No-Robo” Edition.  Which allows even the proudest straight man play with the toy to his heart’s content while still proudly asserting his staunch “No Robo” stance.

The Science Of Slap

Long time readers know I love all things Canadian.  Michael J Fox, hairy muff and most of all their bands.  Here is a great independently made video to one of Canada’s best bands Broken Social Scene.  For those that haven’t heard of them you may still know one of their members.  You see Broken Social [...]

The Playdate

Intro:
Hey this is TJ Shelby.  Many months ago, Jrodius laid before me an open offer to become a contributing blogger on Going Guerilla whenever I felt the urge.  At the time, GG had a significantly different vibe from many of my rage and rant posts that I was writing on my blog at the time [...]

I’m Just Saying…

By now, if you read this site regularly, it’s probably plain to see that I will one day make a great old neighbor.  I am going to be awesome at telling kids to get off my lawn, perfecting the phrase “My yard, my ball” and shooting kids that litter on my front yard with pellet [...]

Culture Clash

07.31.2010

I was a Humanities major in college, as such I often had to study, and be subsequently tested on, various forms of classical music.  Composers like Puccini, Verdi, Vivaldi, and Wagner.  But the soundtrack to my life in San Diego during my 20’s was much more akin to punk music.  Unlike many people I don’t [...]

Jesus Fish And Driving Shit

07.19.2010

If I said I hate Ichthys’ you’d probably say that is a word I just made up.  But I didn’t, the Greeks did.  An Ichthys is the Greek word for what we today commonly call the Jesus Fish.  The minimalist representation of a fish often associated with disciples of Jesus.  All this is correct and [...]

Public Park Fashion Dont’s

07.12.2010

I’ve given up on society.  There is no pride in the human condition anymore.  Of course long time readers know that I feel it all started with the disturbing trend of wearing Ugg’s in public.  However I was able to bear witness this weekend to an example of how Americans have just plain given up.  [...]
