This is what happens with summer boredom.
Four friends get together, dress one up in a home-made robot costume, attach an mp3 player and a speaker (with "Mr Roboto" on repeat) and head downtown to walk around and get strange looks.

Pics taken, uploaded and commented on by my friend Stu. I'm only in the second one. Bad picture, but funny.
At one point, two cop cars drove by, laughed, then stopped to make sure he wasn't just some insane guy out wandering around alone. They seemed to be pleased that it was at least a
group of insane people.
A little while later, we saw someone from school driving by in his truck. He saw us, waved, slowed down to watch us and laugh, and ended up crashing into the car in front of him (no damage done, but hilarious none the less).
