Robot designer gets screwed over yet again

A foul-mouthed graphic-designer robot objects to being treated like a talentless, underpaid slave by a brochure-seeking client in this humorous video. But of course, in the end he takes the work, because he's a wanker with no self-respect. The clip was apparently created on a site called Xtranormal, a "text-to-movie" service where you can type in dialogue and watch scenes of cartoon characters (including the robots) reciting it back to you. The Xtranormal logo and tag appear at the end, making it a pretty good ad for the site itself. Via The Denver Egotist.

I sent this to everyone I know. This pretty much sums up what designers and writers go through all the time. I'm surprised that after 13 years in the business, I still have a soul.

If you can type, you can make movies.

If you can use Microsoft Word, you can design logos.
