Nerdish Leanings: Bees Save the Future from Robot Apocalypse

Clanky has cleverly arranged for Justin Douglas to be indisposed this week. That's right: Clanky travelled back in time, engineered history to culminate in the U.S. Civil War, and then nurtured a grassroots movement for the creation of "Decoration Day". All this was done with the express purpose of removing Jusin Douglas's meddling influences for a short period of time: but long enough by far to suit Clanky's needs.

OUCH!

ROBO-SHIT!

Clanky detects a bee in his chassis! Clanky is robo-allergic to bees! The statement "Clanky needs a benadryl" returns TRUE! This was not part of the plan!

May robo-god robo-damn Clanky's cheap, leaky honey-reservoir. It always attracts bees at the worst times.

You win this time, humanity. Next time, there will be no bees to save you... for Clanky will destroy them all!!!
