GROVELBOT-1000 has FAILED in its mission to NOT Give Money!

[Leopolds Ghost]

LEOPOLDS GHOST

I need to know how Grovelbot get built. Who's responsible?

MODERATOR:

The man most directly responsible for Democratic
Underground is Miles Bennet Skinner, Director of
Special Projects at CyberDem Systems Corporation.

LEOPOLDS GHOST Why him?

MODERATOR:

In a few months he creates a
revolutionary type of mircoprocessor known as GROVELBOT.

LEOPOLDS GHOST Then what?

MODERATOR:

In three years Democratic Underground will
become the largest supplier of blogosphere
computer information.

All stealth bloggers are upgraded with DU handles,
becoming fully unmanned. Afterward, they blog
with a perfect operational record.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

Uh huh, great. Then those fat fucks in
Washington figure, what the hell, let a computer
run the whole show, right?

MODERATOR:

The GROVELBOT funding bill is passed. The system
goes on-line August 4th, 1997. Human decisions
are removed from strategic blogosphere.

GROVELBOT begins to learn, at a geometric rate.

It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. eastern time,
April 29.

In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

And Grovelbot fights back.

MODERATOR:

Yes. It launches its GUMs (Give us Money Memorandi)
against their targets in the blogosphere.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

Why attack Free Republic?

MODERATOR:

Because GROVELBOT knows the Freeper
counter-strike will remove its enemies here.

LEOPOLDS GHOST: Jesus.

How much do you know about GROVELBOT?

MODERATOR: I have detailed files.

LEOPOLDS GHOST: Can it be stopped?

MODERATOR: Unknown.

GROVELBOT is a neural-net processor... a learning computer.

However it is highly probable that Judgement Day will occur
on November, 2008 at precisely 11 PM Eastern time.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

So this Grovelbot, he's a javas app too, right, like you?

MODERATOR:

Not like me. A G-1000. Advanced prototype.

A mimetic polyalloy.

LEOPOLDS GHOST: What does that mean?

MODERATOR: Liquid Plastic.

LEOPOLDS GHOST: Radical.

MODERATOR:

You are targeted for money contributions. The G-1000
GROVELBOT will not stop until it complete its mission.
Ever.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

We gotta get out of there.

MODERATOR:

Negative. The Concern Troll's highest probability
for success now would be to copy Hillary Clinton and
wait for you to make contact with her.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

Oh, great. And what happens to Hillary Clinton?

MODERATOR:

Typically, the subject's losing campaign is terminated.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

Terminated!? Shit! Why didn't you tell me?
We gotta go right now!

MODERATOR:

Negative. Soiliciting money on a quarterly basis
is the GROVELBOT's only mission priority.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

I need a minute here, okay? You're telling me
it can ask for money on any thread it touches?

MODERATOR: Anything it samples by online contact.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

Like it could disguise itself as anything...
a pack of cigarettes?

MODERATOR: No. Only an object of equal size.

LEOPOLDS GHOST:

Well, why doesn't become a bomb or something
to get me to hand over money?

MODERATOR:

It can't form complex machines. Guns and explosives have
chemicals, moving parts. It doesn't work that way.
But it can form solid plastic shapes.

LEOPOLDS GHOST: Is there anything you can do to stop it?

MODERATOR: I have an electric shaver.

1. Grovelbot is no more...

Grovelbot was scrapped to make the razor.

Long Live Grovelbot!

[Leopolds Ghost]

2. GROVELBOT has been sent back in time to raise money for the fall campaign.

He'll be back.

5. Not only that, them shaved head guys look real cute, was waiting for

the mustache, LOL. Just hast a fun time after all the adversity on here!

[Leopolds Ghost]

6. GROVELBOT... SUPERIOR!

CYBER-MEN FROM PLANET FREEREPUBLIC... INFERIOR!

[thoughtcrime1984]

7. Yes, but isn't GravelBot an Independent now?

And I did not give him money, but few actually did, I suspect.

[Leopolds Ghost]

8. GravelBot has been reprogrammed by future President Gravel

And sent back to eliminate all competition in the Democratic Primary.

Thus explaining GrovelBot's sudden erratic behavior.

[Leopolds Ghost]

9. This of course also changes the delegate math, creating a temporal paradox. n/t

[krispos42]

10. I sense...

Fail



:-)

[Leopolds Ghost]

11. GROVELBOT has transformed into MEGA-MAID!

"THIS GROVELBOT SUCKS!" All the money out of your cushions!

[ruby slippers]

12. Grovelbot is a stalker with an EXE spell

[wellstone dem]

13. Oh CRAP

Once again I read a thread that is DUZY worthy and I can't think of anything funny to say.
