The threat of Big Dog

Recommended Posts

I guess Big Dog is resurfacing in the global internet conscious recently, out of nowhere a new wave of people are being terrified by this menace.

After the recent discussion on the podcast, a recent reddit thread has popped up. All you need to know about the Big Dog program and other abominations:

Somewhere, James is bristling with anticipation.

It's true, I fucking love the BigDog. I'm like the anti-Jake on this subject. I can't wait for my inevitable demise at the paws of a glorious quadrupedal automaton.

Someone needs to make a Cthulu style comic about a cult that worships bigdogs now.

It always strikes me how closely it resembles the 'gekko' in Metal Gear Solid 4 (or rather the gekko resembles it). Actual robots of the future will be increasingly biomechanical I reckon.

I happened to be listening to a jovial, uptempo piece of music as I scrolled through this thread, and it created the impression that BigDog was prancing along in time when it stumbled and then immediately resumed its previous activity. After it recovers, it looks like it's almost going into a haughty high step. I love it.

Thoughts? Feelings?

More or less scary Jake?

Funnily enough, I was also listening to

when I read this thread, and had just finished contemplating the particularly delightful nature of the combination when I came to this post. The BigDog is up-beat about slaying us all.

But yeah, he definitely has a spring in his step after righting himself.

I hope Big Dog the robot teams up with Big Dogs the clothing company. Not only will the robots trample over civilization, now they'll be abrasive and rude about it too. The Big Dog will bellow "Slow down, I don't speak STUPID" to the cries of fear from everyone in its path.
