When Awesome Video Games first did the joke, it was based on the robot's bitterness at having been ignored by Ace and Chet. When the Nerd did his episode, it was about ROB trying to carry out its perceived mission to save the world from another video game crash at any cost. When Bores did it, it basically amounted to "Dur hur, evil funny", with clumsy arc welding tying the event into his "epic plot".lordlaharlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06812917712370949576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4432771188531629231.post-73042505064367335842011-08-05T03:29:27.438-05:002011-08-05T03:29:27.438-05:00Argh, this damn party button.
