Irish Robots can be troublesome – especially the poetic ones.
I speak from some experience here. My Ulysses 3000 went through quarts of oil a day and was prone to short circuiting, overheating, violent outbursts and melancholy.
Ram: I’ve heard, though, that you have to keep topping up the Culloden X50 with refined alcohol (something like a bottle every couple of days @ $80 per). And that it is inclined to wander around on the parapets at all hours of the night complaining about its insomnia…
Malach: Is that in a Clint Eastwood sense or a Sid Vicious sense? Either way it makes no sense, as usual.
The Zoid’ster, he rhymes with elan,
And he sports an aluminum tan-
All the girl robots swoon,
Capacitors going “Ba-Boom!”
For a tin can, our Zoid’s quite Da Man!
I think Zoid is a little impersonal for he/she, so depending on what you find when you check the junk in the trunk so to speak. Maybe Pete/he or Marlene/she would better suit someone that has poetic accumen.
I think Zoid is an assumed name. Somebody told me he’s in the Witness Protection & Relocation Program after an unfortunate incident involving a truckload of Microsoft laptops, an abandoned granite quarry and 300 pounds of thermite.
When robots are under discussion
My head’s full of brass band percussion
But when Zoid has his say
All my angst fades away
And once more I’ve evaded concussion
King Willy: Zoid is most accommodating with his talents (so the female astrophysicists say).
Colonel: Zoid does have counter-terrorist capabilities, and his turbulent youth got him into a little trouble. Which of us can can say that’s not happened to them, eh?
No more scoffin at roboticks now, Revrend.
When you set out to make a robot Butler, you get that and a little bit more.
Zoid is my kind of robot (ie: he looks like a robot and yet has a brain the size of a planet)
Im told th ladys think he coud use a softr touch, tho.
Swoon
Joey: I dunno – Cissy seems pretty convinced…
He reminds me of one of our old knights, gone these many winters past.
Went by the name of Sir Hadalot, greatly missed by my dear wife and many of the ladies of the court.
It was a sad day I had to put him to the sword…
The King
A word of caution.

The Scottish Robots are much preferred.
Ram
Zoid is a punk

I’m glad Zoid was able to assist in the Hershel/Planck launch – was a bit worried about that one…
Yes he’s Da Man

lahruitrend: Zoid has a name befitting a proper robot, unlike some recent pretenders.
