Perhaps a wee bit too much *****-ass, but a charming strip nevertheless.

What's with the rectangular guy?  What good is a ***** with no arms?

Not a lot of character development though.

You don't need arms to design BBQ sauce labels. Just to do pretty much everything else in life. Maybe he has some kind of fold-away or retractable arms.

Hmmmmmmm.  Wonder where this fits in on the timeline of recent events.  Is this a predecessor to the Uncle Culpepper thread?  Or have the other 'bots picked up Lie Bot, fixed him up, and they're celebrating his con?

Whatever, I want to see Lie Bot go ass over teakettle out the back of the truck bed.

I thought this meant there were *two* Lie-bots!  And on of them is our Lie-bot's evil twin!  

And since they are both convincing liars, we will never know which is which!  

Hijinks ensue!

Hell, robots are a mass produced commodity. There could be thousands of Lie Bots. MILLIONS!

Not always.  Lie-bot could have been an experimental, hand-built bot.  Like R. Daneel Olivaw.  

Lije Baley?  Isaac Asimov?  The Caves of Steel?  Read a book!

Ah, Cort out-archives me, and all is well in the world.

Except I still don't see how he designs bbq sauce labels on that computer without arms.

That's what I got from it, too. I mean they ARE *****s. it is not entirely inconcievable that they are mass produced by a gigantic conglomerate in the south pacific using slave labor.

My question is, if all it takes for liebot to show off his butt is to stand up and turn around, how come this offensive sight is so rare? Does he always walk around with his back to the wall? what happens when he goes outside? He does NOT have #####. (boo to that)

This kinda blows my theory that Uncle Culpepper-arc Ray was really Andy in a Ray suit, I guess. A-AND GUEST STARRING VLAD AS "SCUBBIE OFTEN"

Whatever. I'm happy to see the bots again (and in a Datsun, no less - are they in Ro bot Hell?). A story arc involving just those knuckleheads fuck*ng around on a road trip has an enormous quantity of rad-potential.

WHAT IT IS, YOU ROCK AND ROLL FAGGOTS

Okay Liebot B, which way would the other Liebot tell me to go?

Oh, and were you trying to make a Human Ton reference down there or Tail and I just cooler than you?

Andy quite obviously has a voice-command program. (Of course it is perfectly workable, even for graphics programs -- *****s have better programs than we do, of course.)

I'm curious where this fits in the timeline, too, but it's a cute strip, although I too have reservations about the obviousness of Lie Bot's ass. I imagine it makes prolonged social attachments difficulties, even more than the compulsive lying.
