OK I lied: this is the last robot post..
I was trying to remember for the last five days, the saddest most anthromoporphic [NOTE: canomorphic??] piece of robot culture I'd ever seen...
Ah, xkcd, that is one of the sadest cartoons ever. But is it really anthropomorphic? Isn't the point, that the robot was a Rover - my latin isn't good enough to know what the equivalent to anthropomorphism for dogs is. Basically we have a case of "Bad Dog!" and that's what makes it so sad?
