Robohype

When someone who does not have enough knowledge of robotics believes they have discovered an amazing idea in robotics automation.

People often think they have great feasible ideas for automation while not knowing the challenges entailed in creating those automation solutions. These people are said to have Robohype. What is interesting is the fact that most of these people are very protective of their ideas. They are usually deeply disappointed to find out that their trivial unfeasible idea is not executable when they share it with an expert. There are many people amongst us who have Robohype. Fortunately there is a cure for this syndrome. It is called Education.

Robocop

A suggestively instantaneous purchase, normally pertaining to athletic footwear, caps, or streetwear.

Rooted in the slang term "cop"; meaning "to seize" in traditional Northern England dialect. The prefix "Robo", in this case, pertains to the mechanical, automatic nature in which the seizure of said goods would be executed. Ultimately a play-on-words of the 1987 motion picture of the same namesake.

Origins can be traced to the internet shoe forum, nicekicks.com, where it was popularized.

Robotomy

Robotomy is a short-running 10 episodic TV-PG-V show about 2 robots named Thrasher and Blastus who live in the planet Insanus. They deal with major problems in their planet, including high school. The show was directed by Adult-Swim's Superjail director, Christy Karacas.

The reason it was cancelled is because of the budget of the show and boring/unaccepted ideas. This is one of the most cared shows around CN fans, since Robot-related TV shows where the most targeted influence. The production company of the show, World Leaders did not use their YouTube channel for 2 long years because of the show.
Quotes from Robotomy:

1. Blastus: "Sometimes... I'm never fresh..." *laughs*

2. Thrasher: "I hate 'fight-your-way-to-school day.'"

3. Weenus: "Who will help me pick the ground? Not me! NOT ME."
