Randall Munroe signing the xkcd book for a robot

[KingOfKatamari]

So the first volume is Volume 0, and the second will presumably be Volume 1. Would that make the third Volume 10?

[memoreinteresting]

Ahh Randall Munroe, LoML.

[Vaskis4life]

that is, ABSOLUTELY awesome.

[Halobenzene]

Of course it cut the queue! It's hard to refuse a 6ft tall robot if you've read enough XKCD...

They're always likely to bypass some safety protocol and start snapping everyone in two like sticks of Pocky.

Mmmm. Pocky.

[musicianhayd]

it even bowed! who was controllin it :S

[youareyourownhell]

Missing: the video of the robot giving him a tugjob at the afterparty.

boom-de-adda,

boom-de-adda,

boom-de-adda,

boom-de-adda...

[zangetsu602]

ah... so that's how you get to the front of the line....

[MeetMyMetis]

Well, SOMEBODY'S live is clearly a thousand times cooler than mine is. :) On the plus side, when Johnny Five over there pops a circuit, he's got places to go and people to vaporize who aren't me.

[sbunkboy3]

+1 XD

He forgot his pen when he left

[LegacyCrono]

Dude, Munroe signed his book;

He signed the damn book for a fucking ROBOT.

WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT THE PEN?!

[dented42]

I would think that the robot cares, or rather the intelligence that was controlling it.

[Thunderios]

What did he write down? Ones and zeroes?

[allanonmage]

dude! thats awesome!

[SansSelf]

I have seen the best thing ever for the day, and this was it. Wow/ That was amazing from a technical standpoint, and even better that there's video of it or else no one would have believed it.

[alecmonkey86]

I find the Segway aspect of that robot to be quite an interesting concept.

[HeroOfFish]

That is so amazing. :D

[Bokbind]

What a polite robot. It even bowed.

[Alonely]

Haha, awesome! :D

[tcrayford]

The robot is one from Trevor Blackwell (YC founder)'s company (anybots)

[R3wdD00d]

OK whose robot is that, and what kind of specs? links!!

[shifzr]

excellent!

[kallacuckoose]

Sweet!

[danimal3114u]

Yeah, this is completely awesome and unbelievably appropriate.
