    Well, I know that gay Ford robot from the LA auto show won't be much help repelling this beast.


    Though the Ford robot was certainly effective at repelling normal-size ASIMO.

    @NovaloadMissesPolar: The Michelin man would win. The Michelin man is fucking invincible. And he drives a Ford F-150, apparently, if you believe the commercial.

    Alan Mulally: My mind is totally blank.
    Bob Nardelli: I didn't choose anything...
    Both: (turn to look at Wagoner): Rick?
    Wagoner: I couldn't help it. It just popped in there.
    Mulally: What? What "just popped in there?"
    Wagoner: I... I... I tried to think...
    Nardelli: LOOK!
    [they all look over one side of the roof]
    Wagoner: No! It CAN'T be!
    Mulally: What is it?
    Wagoner: It CAN'T be!
    Mulally: What did you DO, Rick?
    Nardelli: Oh, shit!
    [they all see a giant cubic white head topped with a spacemand helmet, Mulally looks at Wagoner]
    Wagoner: It's the Honda Asimo.
    Mulallyy: Well, that's something you don't see every day.
    Wagoner: I tried to think of the most harmless thing. Something that I loved from the '90s. Something that would never ever possibly destroy us. Asimo.
    Mulally: Nice thinking, Rick.
    Wagoner: We used to watch Asimo dance and climb stairs...internet videos.
    Mulally: Rick has gone bye-bye, Bob. What have you got left?
    Nardelli: Sorry, Mulally. I'm terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought.
