John Campbell (jcampbel) says:
“What Happened to the other residents of the safe house?”
Obviously, they were, as they say in the cultural dialect of the Killotrons, destroyed.
Thomas Levy (ergonomytch) says: I think you mean they were destroyed.
Owl Who says South (owlsayssouth) says: Destroy!
John Wells (johnwwells) says:
T. Levy and J. Campbell: No, you’re both wrong. They were destroyed.
Tiff Hudson (tiff_hudson) says:
Get a grip on yourself, Janet.
They’re probably foreigners with different ways than our own.
Maybe they’ll do some more…folk dancing.
Dave Van Domelen (dvandom) says: It’s like dudespeak, only more ominous.
Ed Gedeon (eddurd) says: Now my brain is trying to come up with lyrics to “Be Destroyed”, sung to the tune of “Be Our Guest”. Darn it, I gotta go to work, and I’ll be thinking about that all day. Productivity will definitely be down for me. Think my boss will understand if I explain it to him?
NigaiAmai Yume (nigaiamai_yume) says:
I had to register for Webcomics Nation, just to ask….
Does it make me a bad person, that today’s strip gives me warm fuzzies?
Jeffrey Channing Wells (channing) says:
NigaiAmai Yume: No, it makes you an awesome person.
Rasteen Nowroozi (herandar) says: Were they built by people descended from the Marklars?
Steve Ford (sford) says: okay, i totally want an apron now that says “destroy the cook” with the killbot on it.
A confession: I don’t buy swag. No tee shirts, no mugs, no mouse pads. Ok, one mousepad – “T-nuts”. I buy books and that’s all.
But if a “destroy the cook” apron came out, I would weaken. I would waver. I would get out my credit card.
So It Begins (soitbegins) says: Y’know, why is it that Narbonic is talking about ‘destroying the world’ today as well?
Basil Jelly (basil_jelly) says: Destroy it’s a good thing!
Steve Ford (sford) says:
Sorry for off-topic, but a co-worker and good friend of mine made a short video that should interest the geekier of Shaenon’s readers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZV0SVsrhLo

“Y’know, why is it that Narbonic is talking about ‘destroying the world’ today as well?”
I have issues.
Shaenon Garrity (shaenongarrity) says:
P.S. I like that the robots have a “culture” despite the fact that there only appear to be three of them.
Aaron Shades (prof_tinker) says: Hey! It’s not their fault 4-99 git destroyed! And by ‘destroyed’ I mean destroyed. By which I mean ‘went to Iowa’.
Alycia Shedd (leeshajoy) says: I find the word ‘vocabulator’ to be the most amusing part of this strip.
Basil Jelly (basil_jelly) says: I wonder how much the cheapest vacbulator that includes the word “vocbulator” costs.
Ed Gedeon (eddurd) says:
I can’t help it, this entire week reminds me of an old “Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers” comic.
I remember getting destroyed on my last trip to Vegas. Barely.
Kaesa Aurelia (kaesa) says: I desperately want a vocabulator now. I imagine it to look friendly, like a speak-n-spell with a USB port.
In light of intervening years, “cultural dialect which requires us to say Destroy” feels very much like the reasoning behind “I am Groot”… of course, Skin Horse was again a head of the curve…
