Thread: So you bought a brand new HQ...

    So you bought a brand new HQ...

    And your HQ is a beauty. But its huge, and it quickly gets so dusty.


    ISN'T IT TIME YOU INVESTED IN A
    RUR DLK-2000 VACUUM CLEANER ROBOT?

    If the shards are vaporized, you really don't need a vacuum, do you? ^_^;;

    My droids have been doing alright at cleaning. But they could always use some more help. I be glade to buy some cleaners from RUR.

    Demenzia has a point. Does this invention work well with rubble? Blood stains? Unmentionable items you don't care to identify and that only a doctor could identify? Does it repair furniture in case of 'accidents'? And if it for some 'reason' gets in the middle of a combat situation does it know to run? Or better yet. Defend itself? These are all theoretical questions of course but of great interest to me.

    Can it suck the sharks and fishies out of the corner of the aquarium they are all huddled in?

    Ladies, gentlemen, the DLK-2000 is just a vacuum cleaner bot. It does just waht you would expect a vacuum cleaner bot will do. If your want a robots that is more versaitle, maybe you would consider the Phewy Series 6, aka The Milly Bot. Of course it is a good deal more expensive.

    Please browse our online catalog of household roobts.

    Can its nozzle be inserted into the respiratory system of say... oh... a Clanner and then suck the giblets right out of said Clanner? What is the canister capacity and suck quotient?

    Oh course not, what a ghastly thing to even suggest! All our robts are 3 Laws Safe, meaning they cannot by their action or inaction harm a human being!

    Truely shocked,

    Well, what if I welded the nozzle to the Clanner's head so that the robot had no choice? Or maybe I could just tie a towel around it's "head" so that it can't see what it's doing. That would absolve the vacuum cleaner of any mechanical guilt, wouldn't it?

    I’m interested in purchasing one for the Maidens, but I’m concerned on how it will handle the steps. Is there a rocket booster in the base so that it can fly over such primitive obstacles?

    If so, can the vacuum hose be attached to the rocket? Scorching giblets might be even more fun than sucking them out.

    I just want to know if you have a bot that can get all this damn alien bio-goo out of the carpet.

    Some of those little bug-eyed freaks are very squishy, and tend to ooze biomaterial everywhere when they get.......disposed of.

    Also, while vaccuming is handy, something with some reach that could clean the exterior walls of blood/alien goo wouldnt be a bad idea as well. Our weekly visits from the those little green cretins are starting to really filthy the place up......

    Edit:
    One small question, what the heck is with this bots vocal response circuits? Every now and again this thing goes off bleating "Exterminate!", and rolls around waving its appendages in a threatening manner. Your not re-using code from an old Vermin disposal unit in this thing are you?

    You know I have a ton of stains in my apartments that I want to get out, I think I've spilled everything on the floor - including chocolate cake (don't ask). I'm very interested in seeing how good this robot is... but is there a demo?

    You are a strange and scary person Ms Nevver. I am not sure I want to talk to you, let alone sell you a robot.

    I am very sorry, but the classic DLK cannot navigate steps. And it can be disabled by throwing a blanket over its head. Everyone knows that.

    Fear not, whent he DLK-2000 shrieks "Eterminate, exterminate" It's only talking about dust.. or maybe small pets. If you really don't like it, you can flip a switch on the back to swap to "Resistance is futile" mode.
