WIL WHEATON dot NET: 1.5

i love the word "lackadaisical".

I always pictured R2 as somewhat of a spoiled brat.

R2: "Ooooh... I _can't_ playback this holo-recording. There's something wrong with my circuits. Maybe if you removed this _restraining bolt_, I could play back the message."

*Luke removes bolt*

R2: "Message? What message?"

R2 heads for the hills.

Nice.

CMU rules. :)

R2-D2 is cool and all but Data got laid on multiple times. Sure R2D2 had a special relationship with C3PO but Data got to get his mack on with human chicks.

Data had sex?

Data had sex at least with three women. He even sort of got raped by the Borg Queen.

As he told Tashar Yar, who was as far as we know his first, he was "fully functional".

I am having a nerdy epiphany now.

It's days like this that we'll remember for years to come.

Well, I wont.

But that's a different thing altogether.

Data banged Tasha Yar. He's my hero.

Lemme guess - they wanted to elect Data but they couldn't talk Brent Spiner into sitting in a display case 24/7 ?

If the HAL 9000 is a robot then so is my pocket calculator.

Rock on R2D2!

Good he should be; but why aren't Robbie the Robot and the Lost In Space robot in there too? :)

Yes Data got laid, but perhaps so did R2D2. In fact, I distinctly remember him sticking his little thingy into the little hole while they were on the Death Star...

Um, we're discussing robot sex... Uh huh... *shakes head* And of COURSE Data got some. Voltaire would not have had such a great time with Star Trek parody without it. Gotta love The Sexy Data Tango... Or not.

I never heard of a Goth named Voltaire till I went to DragonCon this past summer. I involuntarily sat through his show wanting decent seats for the concert afterwards. Right about the time when my brain was about to doze off due to an unamusing performance, he sang the data song. I laughed so hard I cried. If you want the story on data having sex and want a good laugh, check out Voltaire's website. He probably has a version of the song to listen to.

what about C3PO? sure he had a big stick up his ass but... he was so shiny!

i like all this talk about the data sex.

Hey will there's an opening for you now... er wait.. I see you already knew that from this picture http://macbros.dnsalias.com/linkimage/wilstarwars.jpg

Damn, I was hoping Tweekie from Buck Rogers would get in!

Beee deee beee deeee... Way to go Wil... Beee deee beee dee beee deeee...

Tasha, the security person who got killed like the first or second season? Data had sex with Tasha? I thought he just had a crush on her. Why would a human have sex with a robot? Wouldn't that make Data a dildo? OMG!

Aww, geez, Wil, you gotta check this out:

True, HAL was a computer, but he also was the ship; he could control all aspects of Discovery, and teleoperate its space pods (in fact, he used one of the pods as a murder weapon). That would seem to qualify him for robotic status.

I like the fact that R2 is unassuming and nonpretentious. He doesn't try to act "human"; he just does what he does, does it well, and does it with style. My life would be considerably less stressful if I had an R2 unit on hand. :-)

I would expect both Data and Robbie to get their own inductions at some point in the future.

Way to go, R2. ;)

Way to go R2!

all this talk about Data and such....what about Kryton? he's got a "detatchable" penis so he qualified as a female.....

Wow, I hate to actually comment on this, but R2 wasn't whiney at all.
He was coniving!
He's the funniest character in all 3 movies
(Prequels dont count)

I elect wil wheaton to be the suckiest suck that ever sucked. You suck.

What about the little robots from the movie
"Silent Running" ?

http://www.fogdeity.com/silent.html

indeed, Data did get it on with Tasha. indeed, Voltaire does have a copy of The Sexy Data Tango on his website http://www.voltaire.net and he also has a song called The U.S.S. Make-Shit-Up which mentions Wesley Crusher. and as for the question about why a human would have sex with a robot: he's fully functional and anatomically correct! okay, but seriously, he was programmed with techniques that most humanoids aren't familiar with. i wonder if he has a vibrate feature. Dr. Noonian Soong was an odd man to program a robot with all that information. however, as we also learned in other episodes, Data is a sentient being and has been classified as a new life form.

I hate to point this out people but Data is NOT a robot - he is an ANDROID!!!!!

There is a difference!
