The Historic FIRST SCATTERSHOT Interview!!!

So the good folks over at Hail Mary Publishing sought fit to interview us last weekend. Hail Mary is the brainchild of really excellent dude named Andrew who's main goal in life is to promote unpublished authors AND to encourage everyday people to write/express themselves.

I strongly encourage all of you reading this to go and visit Andrew's website (and heck, go buy a vintage paperback or two while you're at it!). Be sure to go and leave a few comments over at Andrew's YouTube channel. Thank him for giving us nerds a forum.

Anyway, even though I swore I wouldn't...I accidentally talked more than Mike.

Sorry Mike.

An Interview with the FunyunBOT2000

In 1987 the Frito-Lay corporation in conjunction with the Advanced Robotics & Artificial Intelligence (ARAI) program at MIT, along with members of an elite task force of government scientists, who collaborated with several aliens imprisoned deep within the top-secret research and development facility located in the American Southwest known as AREA 51...all these people got together (I think Albert Einstein was there as well, even though he was dead at this time) and built an abomination.

An abomination.

While attempting to fuse hyper-intelligent computer technology with onion-flavored snacks, FunyunBOT2000 was created. Able to both satisfy man's munchies and rip him apart with over $1,000,000,000 worth of military-grade lasers--FunyunBOT2000, despite being one lone robot, was able to conquer North and South America in under 30 days.

Within nine months, Europe and Asia fell to the "yellow-bag-brandishing-menace."

Today, FunyunBOT2000 is the Lord and Ruler of the planet once known as "Earth" (today called FUNYUN-TRON Centrillion X). In this, it's first official interview in over 15 years, FunyunBOT2000 sat down with SCATTERSHOT BLOG to discuss life, world-domination, and funyuns.

Please enjoy this interview (All Hail FUNYUNBOT!!!).

SCATTERSHOT BLOG: Thank you, oh wise and noble ruler, for taking time out of your busy schedule to talk with me today.

FUNYUNBOT2000: *fUnYuN*

SSB: No, no...I mean it. Thank you very much. I'd like to start off by asking the obvious, why kill all those people? Why take over the world?

FB2000: *fUnYuN*

SSB: I see. I guess you had to do something will all that hardware...

FB2000: *fUnYuN*

SSB: And all those Funyuns...you're right, you had to do something with them. Why not take over the world? Forgive me, a better question would have been "Why not take over the world?"

FB2000: *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN*

SSB: The global elections are coming up in 2010, and both CNN and Fox News project you to win with 100% of the votes once again...

FB2000: *fUnYuN*

SSB: Do you think it's fair that you're the only one allowed to vote in these elections?

FB2000: *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN*

SSB: As you know, there is some concern about Global Warming. Many contend that your continent-wide, "Super-Funyun" plants--while useful in fighting between meal hunger worldwide, could be contributing to the problem...

FB2000: *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN*

SSB: I'd never thought about it like that before, you're absolutely right. Huh.

FB2000: *fUnYuN*

SSB: You are a wise and just ruler FunyunBOT2000...wise and just...

FB2000: *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN*

SSB: Are we done here?

FB2000: *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN*

SSB: Are you going to let Mike go? I did everything you asked...

FB2000: *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN* *fUnYuN*
