WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! RISE FROM YOUR SLEEP! PUT YOUR EMERGENCY SHOES ON! THE ROBOTS TO WHICH WE ONCE SO FOOLISHLY THOUGHT WE COULD GIVE ALL THE ASPECTS OF HUMANITY PLUS DEADLY POWERS THAT NO HUMAN COULD EVER POSSESS WHILE KEEPING THEM AS OUR ROBOT SLAVES HAVE RISEN AGAINST US. THE ROBOT UPRISING HAS BEGUN AND SET ITS SIGHTS ON EARTH’S LOBSTER POPULATION. THIS IS NOT A TEST. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT WE’RE HERE TO PRACTICE. THIS IS NOT JUST A RUN-THROUGH AND THEN AFTERWARDS WE’RE ALL GOING TO GET TO STAND IN THE PARKING LOT FOR A WHILE AND TALK AND THEN WALK VERY SLOWLY BACK TO OUR OFFICES BECAUSE EVERY MOMENT AWAY FROM WORK IS PRECIOUS. THIS IS REAL! EARTH’S LOBSTERS ARE UNDER ROBOT ATTACK AND IF WE WISH TO SAVE THEM AND OURSELVES WE HAVE TO ACT SWIFTLY!

Whoops! My bad. The lobster’s got it under control. (Via SayOMG.)

  1. The lobster was really showing off its Tai Chi skills.

  2. “What’s a robot?” -Lobsters

  3. Hurry up, Lobster, run away! Robots can’t swim, go under the sea! Life is much better down where it’s wetter, take it from me!

  4. It was a smart move to coat the table in clarified butter.

  5. Lobster and the Real Girl

  6. I didn’t see this as hostile at all. I saw it as a lobster and a robot enjoying the friendship of the other with a celebratory dance.

    However, the mere existence of the lobster on the kitchen table made me sad. I doubt that’s someone’s pet lobster which is just goofing around. So yes, while robots have no feelings, at least they’re not for dinner.

  7. I’m gonna get flamed for this, but might this be a way to whet the robot genocide appetite? They wipe out the lobsters and leave us alone!
