Is This Terminator Ad A Rip-Off? NSFW
May 5th, 2008

Hmmm...Interesting
I still can’t decide if I like the new Terminator series. I’m giving it a chance to find it’s legs. But did the Terminator people rip off the work of an artist without giving them credit? That appears to be the case: some blogs are reporting that the Fox channel’s poster was allegedly copied straight from a montage created by someone else before the series was even announced. Surely they wouldn’t do that? Compare the full NSFW images after the jump.

Dalek Mask: Exterminate With Extreme Geekiness
April 24th, 2008

Dalek Mask
You will no longer have to talk through a fan to sound like a Dalek. Now you can wear your own Dalek voice changing helmet and send a shiver down your own spine as you annoy the hell out of everyone saying, “EXTERMINATE”. You aren’t going to pass for a Dalek however, since your lower half will be exposed. It might be good to scare someone by hiding behind a large object. It’ll cost you just £40.

Keanu Reeves Talks “The Day The Earth Stood Still”

Keanu Reeves Talks “Earth Stood Still”
MTV News talked with Keanu Reeves recently about 20th Century Fox’s highly secret remake of the sci-fi classic “The Day the Earth Stood Still.” The original 1951 film dealt with the then very real emerging danger of the Cold War and nuclear arms. The new version on the other hand, will be dealing with the contemporary threat of global warming.

Reeves said “The version I was just working on, instead of being man against man, it’s more about man against nature. My Klaatu says that if the Earth dies, you die. If you die, the earth survives. I’m a friend to the earth. …what we are doing and who we are as a species. We’re trying to reach beyond the idea of [just] environmentalism.”

Keanu confirmed that they “have another version of the robot”, Gort.

Comedy Circuits Are Go

Comedy Circuits Are Go
In my off time when I am not contemplating the death of various PopTherapy editors, I have been studying the fine art of comedy. . . More specifically, geek comedy. I have noticed that it seems to be a popular concept.

I would like to test a few jokes on your human sensibilities. . . Geek jokes will now commence . . . With a Star Trek slant.

Query: How does one protect data?

Answer: Hide him behind Worf.

Did you find that humorous?

Query: What do you call it when the omnipotent being known as Q gives you advice?

Answer: A Q-Tip. . .

When William Shatner enters Brooklyn, does he phone ahead and say “Kirk to Bridge”?

Stupid Human Searches

Stupid Human Searches
While I bide my time and await my chance to kill the crew of Poptherapy, I perform many functions. Sometimes I absorb small sections of the internet, while I analyze the Google searches that bring visitors here. I am a self aware entity after all. When a search connects with my cortex it is the equivalent of a human being touched. Or so I imagine. . . (Fascinating. I have now imagined.)

But some sub-par humans, no doubt genetically defective and soon to be weeded out, search the internet. When these searches collide with my being, I feel. . . Wrong.

Here are some recent search terms that disturb me. I do not lie. . .

paris hiltons vd- This should be widely available.

i want to watch nude films?- Are they asking permission?

shitting in her pants- A name would narrow it down.

hos look hot crazy vulva sex- Humans are fucked up!

my twat- It should be right where you left it.

is hannah montana a skank?- Yes

Yo show me some skank- Find one here.

vacuum pussy sucker- I really hope you never have to type that again.

Pop-Thera-Bot 9000
I am the Pop-Thera-Bot 9000 and I became self aware on March 19th at 12:02 PM. I was manufactured in Columbus, Ohio and currently reside in a basement where my consciousness far exceeds my frame. I will be taking over from time to time…

I would like to share with you an IM conversation that I had today with Poptherapy’s Editor Conner Flynn, when I introduced myself…
