The binary is "blah blah". I hope Kat gets a moment of awesome here. Also, I saw somewhere someone mention the similarities between the signs on the outside of warehouse 113 and the NO Spare Robot Parts sign. Good call, whoever you are!

Ooh, this is going to be interesting. I wonder how she's going to prove it. The throwback to chapter 12 is hilarious too, complete with robofied wanted poster of Annie and all.

Also: "We have decided to decline your offer of a butt kicking". Best line of dialogue of 2013.

On the one hand, I expect Kat's natural reaction would be to say OF COURSE she isn't an angel because it's just something some of the robots call her. On the other hand, Robot will get paper clipped if she doesn't think of something.

For some reason I think Annie in Ether-world will lift Kat, convincing the robots that she can fly and thus making them believe Kat... or maybe I'm thinking about Star Wars ep. VI.

So what was he preaching about before meeting Kat? Also: 2nd panel cracked me up |

This page does suggest that S13 falls into the category of "too stupid to live". He got into trouble before the comic began with preaching something that the other Seraphs considered "disinformation" (what it was, we don't know, since he hadn't met Kat yet), was first hidden away in a closet and then turned into paper clips for his actions, and when rescued by Annie, starts preaching all over again, drawing fresh attention to himself. Apparently another example of just how artificial the robots' artificial intelligence is.

Everybody else's does, incidentally, and others seem to be still able to understand it...What gives?  But hell that poster was hilarious. I looked for a second wondering why Rey is grinning like that and then remembered that certain time with antennas. ;D |

Post by sapientcoffee on Jan 18, 2013 12:10:33 GMT
The webpage I use to convert back and forth keeps the leading zeros. If you add a leading zero to the groups of numbers so that they each have eight, you'll get stuff that makes sense. IIRC, GK Sierra comments on how this seems to be Robot's thing and maybe tosses in a curiouser and curiouser?
[Edit: AH! The shorter sets are spaces and punctuation. It's faster to just delete the short ones. So adding spaces back in, GK Sierra says "So Robot was preaching about an angel even before Kat arrived Curious"]
Then ctso74 responds with curious, indeed. (Not in quotes because I'm going off memory.)

Poor Annie: just as she's promised Jones she'll be good, her past catches up with her!
Rey's been a bit subdued since the spike incident.
Nice to see he's still capable of a snarky grin!
Of course Kat can fly! (She just needs a thermos and coat hangers!)
It's just that she'd rather grow protein crystals.

Given the over-reliance on simple logic by the robots, I wonder if they took panel 5 literally and assumed it was a logic statement -- never stopping to question to assumption that their metal butts could be kicked? (I'm sure it's true, but the idea of a bluff could probably never cross their circuits at all if phrased in this way, it seems.)

Hoo boy. I remember another chapter involving robots that had a lot of robot sillyness and then went into a serious downbeat. Punctuated by the robot seriousness not seeming so silly anymore.
"The saddest face!"
This could still get weird.

So adding spaces back in, GK Sierra says "So Robot was preaching about an angel even before Kat arrived Curious"] Thanks! But I wonder, did Robot actually preach about the Angel before, or if he is generally prone of getting attached to new ideas and trying to convince his fellow robots about them? And now that I think of it, it seems that these Seraphs are not a part of the official robot law enforcement, or whatever you would call it. They seem like extremists in their own right, considering that under the normal robot conventions criminal behaviour should be studied, which requires the removal and storage of the CPU. But these guys just chopped Robot to pieces and left him in a spare part storage, presumably for good. So why didn't they simply destroy his CPU if they didn't want it to be studied? Would that have gone too far for their code of ethics? |
