Robotic house wife (c. 1984) - TexasBowhunter.com Community Discussion Forums

txpitdog · 01-24-2021, 06:53 PM

We cleaned my parents’ garage out, and I found a box of old schoolwork that my mom had kept. In going through the box, I found this gem. Apparently, 10yr old 1984 me, turned in an assignment with a design for a robotic house wife. I don’t see a grade on it, but back then I was pulling pretty strong E’s, sometimes even an E+. Conduct, S-, but I made up for it with my superior intellect.

I don’t think 10yr old 1984 me could have ever thought what it means to have a wife, but I’m pretty sure I would’ve been disappointed to learn they don’t come with machine guns or MX missiles.

Priceless! Take it to the Shark Tank and see what they say!

Paycheck · 01-24-2021, 06:58 PM

Dang, that is cool.

I'm guessing the Secret Surprise Compartment is where the sandwiches come out of?

Pretty sure mine has the x-ray vision...

Have to get me one of those electric dog fooders.
That’s a cool find.

curtintex · 01-24-2021, 07:07 PM

I'd invest in one. Hell, I've invested probably millions in an old fashioned housewife and I still have to feed the dog and she never keeps a shovel handy.

I see a lot of great parts, but where's the fun part

?

Awesome post!

RifleBowPistol · 01-24-2021, 07:32 PM

That's pretty cool. But why were you wanting a robotic house wife at 10 years old, thinking ahead to the future? You must have just watched Back To The Future.

House wives or wives of any type were not on any of my priority lists at that point in time.

mikemorvan · 01-24-2021, 07:33 PM

Robot Wheel Wasters are critical. Great thinking.

sasqy · 01-24-2021, 07:38 PM

Love it !
Where can I order one of these ?
Tired if sweeping floors and feeding dogs.

BigL · 01-24-2021, 07:40 PM

Don't use it to clean up wedding cake or the vacuum will stop working..

3ChordTruth · 01-24-2021, 07:45 PM

Good one, your design makes R2-D2 droid a space wimp!

Also, God bless Mothers who keep our old schoolwork. Those old papers are not important to anyone but them, but our Moms truly believed we were all going to be famous someday.

Lmao !!!!
Ain’t that the truth.

Low Fence · 01-24-2021, 08:20 PM

Any more details on that “secret surprise”?

rolylane6 · 01-24-2021, 08:26 PM

Why does the machine gun look like some kinda 3rd nipple or something?....I mean 1984? Austin Powers hadn't even come out yet.

It’s probably a good thing for you that she doesn’t keep a shovel handy

Curious to know why 10 year old 1984 you thought the shovel was that important . . .

Take Dead Aim · 01-25-2021, 07:32 AM

There is no mouth, which some would find as a flaw. Not me.

Kinda like owning a snow blower in Tx.... You will never get enough usage to justify upkeep.

And in 1987 your 13 year old self inspired a movie

Graysonhogs · 01-25-2021, 09:56 AM

Hilarious. They'd put a kid in sensitivity training for that picture now.
