Japan stretches the definition of 'robot' with a ticket kiosk
Look, Japan, I know you have a thing for robots. It's awesome, really. Robots are very cool. But sometimes it seems like you're just trying too hard.
Like with this ticket kiosk that's supposedly a "robot." Clearly, it's just a ticket kiosk. It's not a robot. It can't walk around, it isn't sentient. It's just shaped like a robot, and we aren't fooled by it. Those legs are just for decoration. Weak, Japan. Give this thing laser cannons and a jetpack and then we can talk.

Hey. It's a start! I wonder what would happen is we saw one of those pop up here in my town in Kansas. Ha. The thought makes me chuckle.

This is only one of the inferior robots that Japan has made. So far they are the leading robot maker out there. Look up robots on the internet and you will see enough to amaze you.
