I like the way the cockpit sways 1 metre sideways with every step even when empty.

In retrospect, it was probably a bad idea to subcontract the design to Ikea.

Oh, I don't doubt that he has one of the original props. I was just mistaken and thought you meant that the guy in the gif (webm?) that started the discussion on the coffee bong was Drew Goddard, but I'm pretty sure it's not.

now that we have VR and decent wifi wouldnt it make more sense to have the cockpit not be attached to the mech?

The robot will obviously have the ability to autonomously triangulate the source of malicious signals and destroy the general area it comes from. Foolproof!

You want people to build a giant walking deathbot and then make them pilot it remotely? What is wrong with you?

Without researching this man's wiki page I read the "Portrait of Dorian grey" and I could deduce that Oscar....

Well, you obviously know.

Dude has been dead now for decades. I can't ask him.

So, please. Why don't you, a product of the times you and I both live in, answer in a manner that a noted literate could make clear?

How else could you, a goon, contribute to the world?

Jesus loving Christ please give us your loving opinion, truthful opinion on things.

It would help all of us understand you better.
