Looks burnt.

I suppose if I didn't have anything else to eat, I would 1) kick myself for having bought that robot with my food money then 2) eat the burnt omelette.

Waiter!

What do you know of KoenigsEggs, M. Poolman, and ITs HyperRadioProActive Drive Train/NEUKlearer Intellectual Property Fuel?

XXXXSiting Egg-citing development in robotics, indeed.

I think that should have been....

Saturday Kitchen

I've already asked Saturday Kitchen to enter it into the omelette challenge - I'm sure its conversational abilities will be up the the usual standard.

Heres one for £30!

Not very useful

There's been a spate of these 'does task X' robots over the years, and they all have the same problem - they require the ingredients (or materials or whatever) to be carefully arranged in front of them. This may be suitable for a production line or maybe a large catering kitchen, but for household tasks, I'm willing to bet that no-one has designed a robot that can go to the fridge and get the ingredients, avoiding knocking other things in the crowded fridge over, selecting the oldest eggs first etc etc.

In summary, I we'll be doing the house work for a long time yet.

Eggrace

On an episode ot the Great Eggrace the teams were tasked with making the perfect omelette from some basic everyday objects.

The Japanese team were slightly confused, couldn't understand that not everything required an hi-tech solution then went away and spent years developing this robot.

Meanwhile the team of village idiots from darkest Somerset started shagging pigs in the hope one of them would give birth to an omelette. It was eventually explained to them this would not work and that in a future time they would be persecuted by a woman who would come to be known as Waqui Jacqui. Such strong emotional bonds had been formed between man and beast that it was decided a life apart was not an option so they ventured forth to setup a free-love comune in a place more understanding of their needs, the Appalachian mountains.

The contest was won by the team from much-machissimo-in-the-wold who, after much debate and puzzlement over what use a frying pan would be, got a woman to do it for them She also washed up afterwards, let's see the robot do that.

Earth to Mars

What do you know of KoenigsEggs?

Only that they go so fast they're likely to ovaturn and you'll end up cracked with your brains scambled. Either that or you'll be pecked up in a speed trap by the coops, and get brought before the beak, which is exactly the sort of eggistential crisis I want to ovoid to have any chance of getting layed.

Oh for the wings of any bird, other than a battery hen - that's just the soth

I soooooo misread that at first - it would require an entirely different kind of flexibility... and lips might help...
