Ryan: "Ooh, the judges aren't gonna like that -- that spillover's gonna cost him at least a quarter point. The scores are in... 8.4. Ouch. He's not even going home with a bronze medal in this year's robo-beer-pour-lympics."
Thomas: "Beers, steers, and gears...yeeehaw!"
Evan: "If this is what the future robot 'oppression' will be like, sign us up!"
Paul: "And yet he can never enjoy the fruits of his labor."
Stan: "Introducing the world's first frat bro-bot."
[Thanks, Limor]
I for one welcome our robot overlords
...especially this one!!!
This year's bud bowl will be a lot more interesting with these babies.

Beat that LEGO mindstorms!
Come on little buddy, you are leaving too much head on the beer.
MIT Student proves the studies are wrong. Beer is more important than Ipods
until i can find a woman who's willing to bend over backwards and pour me a beer i guess the robot is going to have to do.
He spilled the beer!
/not impressed
Finally...! A robot for the rest of us!!!
( robot singing )"....then you'll find your servant is your maaaaaaaaaaaster....and you'll be wrapped around my finger...."
I'd like to remind our new robot beer-pouring overlords, that as a trusted engaget-poster I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground brewing caves...
After a long day of human domination, Gleep relaxes with the cool crisp taste of Botwesier.
We need a two-handed beerbot to perform the perfect pour.
It should come with an lcd interface and be programmable to account for different beer and glass types. It should also come with some presets preloaded for some of the common beer type/glass combinations.
Such a device would be great for some of the premium belgium ales as often times clueless/rushed bartenders have no skill at such things.
I would be love to walk into a bar and have the BeerPourBuddy2000 robot serve me!

99 bottles of beer on the wall 99 bottles of bear. “Oh crap Melvin, you forgot to charge me up before we stated the countdown!”
Ok, buddy, clean This mess and getme some peanuts!
what we didn't show you was the robot smashing the bottle and brutally killing the photographer...the uprising begins.
breaks back to pour beer, unlike woman 1.0
"Tastes great!"
"Less filling!"
"Tastes great!"
"Less......Destroy all humans! Destroy!"
This is the first sign of our impending slavery at the hands of our creations. The robots have taken all the beer!
It's people. Soylent Green is made out of people. They're making our food out of people. Next thing they'll be breeding us like cattle for food. You've gotta tell them. You've gotta tell them!
And all at once, the possibility of a robot uprising was dashed away, as most robots decided to stay at home, watch TV, and drink beer.

"Real Robots of Genius."
Soon avilable with optional roofie adaptor!
I think this might beat it, http://www.vexlabs.com/vex-bottlebot.shtml the Lego Bot looks like it needs to have an open drink, this one will pour it and serve it.
"Robot shows first signs of Artificial Intelligience; and pours himself a beer."
Ah, one step closer to creating a real, life Bender.
"Big screen TV? Heck... the guys'll be happy to watch the game on my 15" Porta-Vision TV once they see THIS."
i dont think the human will mind if i pour myself a drink while he's afk.
OK.. I'll buy that Robot Attack Insurance !! Once this sucker gets you drunk he's going to steal your wallet and impregnate your Ipod...
Now only if my wife could learn.....
Why not to let the AI handle the TiVo; Cocktail.
"Upon results of user polls, beer manufacturers alter their current commercials of girl infested marketing to… robots. This is to appeal to their more abundant audience of geeks and nerds who lack social skills and feel more comfortable with said robots."
There's a robot in this picture?
That robot could ALMOST replace women entirely.
"I swear, boss, that crazy little summer intern was forcing me to drink!"
*Robottlecap Opener Not Included.
Here's to you Mr. Beer Pouring Robot Creator.
*Mr. Beer Pouring Robot Creaaaatooorrr!!*
While your classmates are out chasing women, you're sitting in your room containing thousands of dollars of high tech equipment and a beer...... alone.
*Noooo love for geeks now...*
Sure you could just pop the cap and pour a beer yourself like everyone else. But you're smarter than that, and you're out to prove it.
*get a life, get a life, get a freaking life man!*
So who cares if your creation spills a little here and there, you've conquered the task at hand and now have an icy cold... half a beer to prove it. In the battle between man and machine, you're a beer guzzling winner!
*Mr. Beer Pouring Robot Creaaaatooorrr!!*

The vacuum bots, the med bots, the battle bots... (gasp)for godsakes! Even the ANIMAL BOTS!! It all leads TO THIS... and no one EVER SAW IT COMING?! It's genius... pure, supreme, ultimate GENIUS! I can say now our children's future is secured.
1) "It's supposed to go in the glass not on the table you idiot! What a waste!"
2) Y.A.U.G. (Yet Another Unnecessary Gadget).
3) An automatic beer pourer? And you're wondering why were the fattest country in the world?
"It was then that he realized the robot army's only weakness: crappy light beer."
8:01 am - Skynet becomes self aware.
8:02 am - Skynet discovers the secret of bringing the humans to their knees: Steal all their beer!
Martin has a good point.
One time, I had an open beer in my hand, and instead of having to fit it into a robot and press the button and make sure it was lined up, I poured it into the glass myself!
As Aibo's master prepares to pour himself a tall cold one in preparation for watching his favorite world sport, the RoboCup, he hears a news story that announces the price of the PS3.
Yeah buddy!! My agent just called I got the part of Optimus Prime in the Transformers movie.
This... THIS is why comments needed to come back.
"Bender, you've been drinking too much, or not enough, I can't remember how it goes with you. But anyways, you haven't been drinking exactly the right amount."

Sadly, Robotis broke the 4th law..
The 4 laws of robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
4. A robot must not allow beer to go to waste.
Monitor: Where'd you learn to pour like that!?
This day in history will be known as man's first step towards completely phasing out women.
You're looking at an early, unsexy prototype for a Fembot.
Unfortunately, spilt beer got into an exposed wire and the robot's circutry shorted out. Sadly, all attempts to revive the beloved Beer Bot failed. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Widows of the Robotic Bomb Defuser Foundation.
The Beer Bot is mimicking his favorite hockey team, the Oilers, hoisting the Stanley Cup.
Hooter waitresses everywhere perceive the Beer Bot as a potential threat to their livelyhood.
...After conquering the the Human Race, the Robots celebrate their victory with a nice cold one!
Pour some bear for my Master and pour a little out on the ground for my homies on the scrap heap.
It's 5 o'clock somewhere!
Linguo Like Beer.
See my robots don't dance,
See we just pull up the cables and,
Do the Roc-a-way.
Now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back.
01100011 bottles of beer on the RAM! 01100011 bottles of wine! You pick one up, upload it around, 01100010 bottles of beer on the RAM!
