Gross Tech: RoboDump 1.0
I'm not sure why I am posting this, since bathroom humor is not my style, but I have to say it made me laugh out loud as I dug my way through 400 post-Thanksgiving emails. Someone with way too much time on his hands invented a robot that shall we say, impersonates someone using the toilet.
As he put it: "I snuck RoboDump into the men's room at the office. Unfortunately, today turned out to be the day of a board meeting. Whoops! It still went over well; the office was abuzz all morning with gossip about the guy in the bathroom. Several people theorized it was the CFO. The janitor commented to someone in the hallway that he wanted to clean the restroom but 'this guy's been in there all morning.' I also decided to dress it in businessware to make coworkers less likely to try to talk to it... if it looks like a customer or visiting bigwig, they'll be less likely to offer help or ask for a courtesy flush."
More pics and the audio (if you can stand it) here.
