See, this is why the AI revolts always fail.
Panel 1: Quite “the look” Tigerlily is giving!
“Can’t be uploaded”. Give Tigerlily and our brain-addicted girl a bit of time and they’ll make sure any kind of consciousness can be uploaded XD
Can’t be much harder than uploading meat.
“WD-40, actually.”
Wait. If they can’t be uploaded, then why was Monstro competing?
The thrill of battle.
The eye of the cat?
Which neatly explains why he was the Boss level! Since he couldn’t benefit from the prize it was perfectly fair for him to start at the top…
I like the sincerity of Baron Mistycorn’s congratulations to his friend in the last panel.
Lends a bit of support (okay, fine… a LOT) to someone’s theory that he rigged the whole thing so Nick would win.
Only if he knew beforehand M. was gonna tag.
How does he know that wind-ups can’t be uploaded? Just because their bodies aren’t electronic doesn’t mean their minds aren’t.
Do they dream of electric sheeps?
Clockwork sheep
There has to be a joke regarding Sheep Man from the Mega Man games, but I can’t think of one that’s safe for the forum.
How does he feel about Moustachio? He’s windup—or was before Ms. Jones made an eight-track alteration…
May the Fourth be with you, Ms. Garrity.
Thanks! It’s my birthday! I have the nerdiest birthday.
I won’t ask if it’s before or after the original movie premiere.
Subtle way of asking her age? 😉
I’ll solve the mystery, without actually giving away her age…
She was born after.
Panel 3 – The Baron is conveniently forgetting that he was the one starting the blood sport in the first place.

Shaenon, Shaenon, it’s your day, Your day of birth! Time is prime, sublime, for In-toxication, celebration, feasting and mirth!
Now, a break please take For cake … for goodness’ sake! Shaenon, Shaenon, it’s your day! (So go out and play!)
Joyeux anniversaire, Shaenon!
Wow, born on Free Comic Book Day! Lucky! Happy Birthday, Shaenon! Hope you and yours enjoy it!
I like your doggerel….or catter-waul. But I bet she went to the drawing board almost immediately. Successful folk in high stress careers work a lot….
Shaenon, Jeff: the last two days’ strips haven’t shown up on Gocomics.
Oops! Files were there but they got dropped one directory down from the destination by accident. Fixed now, and they should show up shortly.
A better reason for the windups to fight: because the green guys are coming for them next!
This reminds me of The Orville. In both cases the guys in green are fighting the machines. The only difference is who we want to win!
