Randall Munroe signing the xkcd book for a robot

At the xkcd volume 0 launch on Silicon Valley, in the Y Combinator headquarters.

The book signing line was very long, and a robot jumped the line.

Yeah, this is completely awesome and unbelievably appropriate.

[Bokbind]

What a polite robot. It even bowed.

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

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

Dude, Munroe signed his book;

He signed the damn book for a fucking ROBOT.

WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT THE PEN?!

Ahh Randall Munroe, LoML.

[Vaskis4life]

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.

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