Sankei ryouriten o Taikoku! It looks fun and flattering! I found Marvin the Martian with Bing and i guess i do see a bit of resemblance.. but I think i rather meet this waiter with a platter of such yummy food instead of the Martian... he seems to like ray-guns too much? This ryouriten is a place that I would love to visit!

Just wait until the robot has a short and flips trays of food over its head.

Must have been daddy's money. A relatively young looking woman, coughing up USD 927k... Smells like daddy's money. But I could be wrong.
Moderator: Readers, whether or not it is her father's money is, of course, irrelevant. Please stay on topic.

The pic on the homepage, before you enlarge it, doesn't even show the woman, just the robot (well, you can see the top of her forehead and her hair, but still).

I never thought I would see something more inane and based on Japanese culture outside of Japan.
