Caption contest: cat driving Roomba -- is not so impressed, actually

This is one nonplussed feline, folks. No, he doesn't mind zooming around on the Roomba all day for the humans to videotape, upload to YouTube and laugh at around "the office" all day. Sure, he'll humor you, go ahead and caption -- capshun, if you will -- him until you're blue in the face. He'll have the last LOL. Oh yes, he will.

Josh F.: "The perpetual cat-hair, spot-cleaning cycle ultimately spelled doom for this unlucky Roomba, much like tic-tac-toe did in WOPR in 1983."
Paul: "Must do no harm, must do no harm... wait, does that only apply to humans?"
Chris: "HOVERCAT IZ ON UR CARPIT / STEALIN UR DIRTZ" or "iRobot's demonstration of Roomba's new 'fight or flight' algorithm is an unqualified failure."
Laura: "What part of this is the food?"
Thomas: "Take your complaints up with the staff, Rrrroomba. There's one holding the camera now."

"Now that I've figured out this whole roomba thing, nothing can stop my evil rain of terror!"

"On second thought, better hold off the attack at least until I can get it to move in patterns other than squares."

[Stevo @ Nov 20th 2008 1:24AM]

"Hope this thing doesn't have reverse!"
"The cat beez on itz way to pimp my ride"
"What? This thing ate the last of the tuna!!"

[Danger @ Dec 23rd 2008 5:36PM]

I'll buy the Roomba.. but only if it comes with a pusssy

[Gnaget @ Nov 20th 2008 2:00AM]

Looks like someone else googled "roomba dueling harness" after looking at today's xkcd... That's how I found it this morning

[danrod @ Nov 20th 2008 5:36AM]

I've never NOT laughed as hard in my life. God are cats useless, let alone the people who are amused by them.

Forget our robotic overlords. This is the future that we must fear...

The new start of the art Roomba not only cleans your floor, but also recycles the cat hair it picks up into a new cat. Available now for $399.90

[Simon @ Nov 20th 2008 12:55AM]

That is possibly the best thing I have ever seen.

[ubn2 @ Nov 20th 2008 12:56AM]

[Nick @ Nov 20th 2008 12:59AM]

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

[Smart People Play Tuba @ Nov 20th 2008 9:42AM]

I'ts "hword." As in, "You keep using that hword. I do not think it means what you think it means."

[Plothole @ Nov 20th 2008 12:59AM]

I'm surprised it can stand the sound. My cats freak out the minute they hear a motor. (even if it's just the dinky one in my hand mixer)

[Amerist @ Nov 20th 2008 1:22AM]

I was thinking the same thing. This kitten must have been raised by roombas.

[ubn2 @ Nov 20th 2008 1:00AM]

wheres tweety?

[Magius @ Nov 20th 2008 1:01AM]

A cat riding a roomba? Reminds me of Achewood's Roomba Theater:

"Look, if you can't remember where your robot overlord is, I'll find him myself"

[LC @ Nov 20th 2008 1:12AM]

Rebel #1: "You hear that? I think I hear a combine helicopter!"
Rebel #2: "No man, that's my vacuum with my cat riding on it."
Rebel #1: ".....Oh."

I've been playing too much Half Life 2, but that seriously does sound a bit like the combine helicopter. At least to me it does. Minus that one noticeable noise it makes, that you'll know of if you've played Half Life 2.

[souravgh @ Nov 20th 2008 1:12AM]

"Whoz ur Daddy now, Roomba?"

[MastrCake @ Nov 20th 2008 1:15AM]

"What do you mean this thing is going at maximum speed? Now I'll never catch that damned bird!"

"You mean I put my trust into a robot that runs into walls?"

"Oh no, it just sensed a dirty carpet area! Where's the damn seat belts?"

"Incoming Dirt Dog! Brace for impact!"

For those of you who don't know what a Dirt Dog is...

"I CAN HAZ MORE SPEED?"

[Artie Lange @ Nov 20th 2008 1:33AM]

Vastly superior to fuzzy logic, the new Roomba employs "furry" logic.
