Robot Overlord?

by Puck on December 10th, 2009

My friends have been giving me some grief about the rover and as an engineer it is only ethical of me to warn you.  If struck by lightning, he may acquire sentience and conquer the earth as a robot overlord.

We must respectfully acknowledge that even while it is much more likely that a lightning strike would send his robot bits accelerating in different directions at high velocities, the eventual conquest of the earth is also one remote possibility.

With that in mind, I have created my own pet name for the Rover:

Rover:

  • Light
  • Operational
  • Reconnasiance
  • Droid

Or RoverLORD.

Hopefully, if he does acquire sentience, I get to be his first minion which I can add to my resume.
