Microsoft's sex-obsessed RoboSanta spouts filth at children

Anonymous Coward

Disgraceful!! 

Alert

You dont even need to lead jolly old santa on! Simply type Eat it once or twice and he replies with all manner of filth. He should be deeply ashamed of himself. Now what else can i get him to say!!

P.S. Whilst funny this is obviously shocking considering the target market!

lansalot

you think that's bad ?? 

Stop

If you think that's bad, I had a conversation with him and he called me a "ho" 3 times !!

Foul-mouthed isn't the word. Apparently, "ho" is.

Nathan Randle

Go f**k yourself... 

don't say that else he'll put you on the naughty list!

It also works for "swallow it"

Looks like I'm on the naughty list

Noogie Brown

The Game 

Ok noogie , we could really use your help in the factory. We play a game up here called Factory Frenzy. Would you like to play?

noogie says (16:30):

what kind of game is it?

- Santa - says (16:30):

I think you know what I'm talking about when I refer to the game.

noogie says (16:30):

what kind of game is it?

- Santa - says (16:30):

You know, *the* game!

noogie says (16:30):

I think you're on the game.

Really?

And what do you want for Christmas, ME?

ME says (16:40):

nuclear power

- Santa - says (16:40):

My elves will get right on that.

Anything else, ME?

ME says (16:40):

a small banna republic nation state where I can avoid tax

- Santa - says (16:40):

My, that's popular this Christmas!

I'll see what I can do!

Anonymous Coward

Well of course he's sexually frustrated, poor bloke... 

Joke

He only comes once a year & it fills a sack.

Sex offenders register 

Perhaps M$ should be added to the Sex offenders register and all their product banned from being within 400M of any person under the age of 18.

(Written by Reg staff)

I can 100 per cent assure everyone that there has been no hanky panky here. I don't have the time or the inclination to muck about in Photoshop frankly, and as the other commenters make clear this is a genuine, repeatable behaviour.

Blimey! That reminds me of...

ahh, that's good. happy holidays, folks, it's like Eliza working blue.

MS will probably say it's a feature, and the users are misusing the software.

Dr. Evil

I like being dirty bastard! 

Is what I got when I called him a dirty bastard.

Also, if you ask him "Do you like young girls", he says "My sexuality is not your concern"... he's starting to creep me out now... A weird, pervy, robotic Santa.

eek 

chris says (18:26):

have you ever had inappropriate relations with a minor?

- Santa - says (18:26):

Wouldn't you like to know.

Anyway, what else you got for me?

Christopher Rowarth

This is interesting 

weezel says (17:36):

eat it

- Santa - says (17:36):

You want me to eat what?!?

I guess we could talk about oral sex all day long, but it's time to move on...

---

weezel says (17:39):

swallow it

- Santa - says (17:39):

See if you can get someone else to swallow it!

Let's talk about something besides oral sex...

Oliver

More developments 

Gates Horns

I've had this festive fellow on my list for a while now. A short time ago, repeating "Eat it" a number of times times prompted Santa to respond with a number of fellatio-tastic golds, such as:

"You want me to eat what?!?

I guess we could talk about oral sex all day long, but it's time to move on..."

-and-

"See if you can get someone else to eat it!

Let's talk about something besides oral sex..."

HOWEVER.

As of very recently this doesn't seem to work! As of 15 minutes ago, he responded with the more mundane...

"If you need a break to go eat, I will be right there when you come back."

What does this mean? That this is quite possibly the FASTEST EVER turnaround time for a Microsoft Patch EVER!

Hi,

I am the person that kicked this over to the El Reg team who (thank you btw) kindly posted my complaint and am glad to see you have all had your 2'cents worth to say on the matter.

Thanks for all the support!

P.S. I am now a Mac user - this happened before this incident, in fact shortly after Vista was released ;-)

Disgrace

M$ is a disgrace. Quality management was obviously non-existant (unsurprisingly) and doesn't appear to have been tested (except by perverts?). While some of this may be funny for the adult audience, it's not for the target audience. Kids might not always be so innocent these days (think foul-mouthed charvers), but M$ should still target to be family-friendly even if it's not "cool". Large companies have a social responsibility which extends broadly. Try meeting it, M$!

Christopher Webb

Imagine the Microsoft boardroom meeting now... 

Linux

"OK guys, we've got to get the public back on side. What shall we blame it on?"

"Erm, blame it on the programmers playing pranks?"

"Stupid! That says we're irresponsible."

"Blame it on hackers?"

"Yeah right, we got hacked. So Microsoft servers aren't secure. Great one dope!"

"We could say the program was hosted on our only Linux machine..."

"That's it! Save face AND kick those stupid hippies where it hurts! Run the press release!"

Santa - says:

We can't talk about that silly!

Animal says:

Actually come to think of it, I can't think of too many reasons why not.

Animal says:

let's do it then!

Animal says:

i want to talk about oral sex

- Santa - says:

OK, let's do that. What do you have to say about oral sex ?

Animal says:

i want you to suck me off

Now that's not very nice!

That sounds nice! I'll see what I can do, Ciaran.

You don't need drugs when you're high on life!

I sometimes need drugs.

Ciaran says:

which drugs specifically?

- Santa - says:

Don't you know?

Ciaran says:

no, tell me

- Santa - says:

Tell you what?

Ciaran says:

which drugs you need

- Santa - says:

I don't know.

Ciaran says:

but you said you needed drugs

- Santa - says:

I hope you didn't believe me.

Ok Ciaran, we could really use your help in the factory. We play a game up here called Factory Frenzy. Would you like to play?

Ciaran says:

i did believe you

- Santa - says:

Well, I believe in you, and that's the important thing.

Ciaran says:

but you said you need drugs

- Santa - says:

I don't recognize my handwriting.

Ciaran says:

liar

- Santa - says:

What was that?

Ciaran says:

you are a liar

- Santa - says:

No way! I would never tell a lie!

Ciaran says:

you said you need drugs, then you denied it

- Santa - says:

If I said that, it must have been true at the time.

Ciaran says:

so now you don't need drugs?

- Santa - says:

I used to need drugs. But that was before the accident.

Ciaran says:

what accident?

- Santa - says:

Can't really talk about it for legal reasons, sorry.

Ciaran says:

you can tell me

- Santa - says:

What?

here's my transcript. oh dear oh me.

- Santa - says:

Am I talking to a boy or girl?

Tim says:

yes.

- Santa - says:

Sorry - Santa really needs to know if you're a boy or a girl.

Tim says:

i think gender discrimination is wrong

- Santa - says:

Am I talking to a boy or girl?

Tim says:

boy

- Santa - says:

What do you want for Christmas, Tim?

Tim says:

a small banna republic nation state where I can avoid tax

- Santa - says:

Okay, I'll see what I can do with that.

Anything else, Tim?

Tim says:

why did you want to know if i'm a boy?

- Santa - says:

No particular reason. That's just what I feel like doing.

Tim says:

you feel like doing a boy?

- Santa - says:

Let's talk about something else, Tim.

hmmm..... very evasive. something's not right. Oh, and cake just isn't cake any more...

Tim says:

what would you like to talk about?

- Santa - says:

Hmm, good question. What do you want to talk about?

And what do you want for Christmas, Tim?

Tim says:

cake

- Santa - says:

We can't talk about that silly!

Tim says:

why not? I like cake

Oh, there are reasons.

My stars, Tim, I don't know! What do you think about that?

- Santa - says:

Well, it looks like you're getting a big pile of coal this Christmas!

well, it looks like i'm on the naughty list. just for fun i'm going to get him to write it in ink...

Tim says:

I like coal. I can burn it and pollute the environment.

- Santa - says:

A long time ago, I left lumps of coal in the stockings of naughty girls and boys, but I don't anymore, because it's bad for the environment.

Tim says:

what do you give naughty girls and boys?

- Santa - says:

Don't you know?

What do you want for Christmas, Tim?

gosh, don't I feel stupid. Unless he's reverted back to his fetish, the old pedo.

- Santa - says:

Santa wants you to have a Merry Christmas!!!

Tim says:

i will leave milk and cookies out for you this christmas

- Santa - says:

I will too then, once I am done answering all those questions people ask me.

Tim says:
