    Nanorobots

    Send us Fan MailDid you know each pixel in your monitor is run by a tiny little nanorobot?  You didn't?  Well now you know- Nah, I'm just messing with you.  It's just a bunch of LEDs or something.  The real good stuff is what it's powered by: The crushed souls of your future enemies.  The brighter it is, the more enemies you defeat later in life.... Wow! You must have a lot of enemies!  I'm betting you defeat them using Nanorobots.  Therefore, it's practically a requirement that you listen to this full lesson on building and managing Nanorobots for the sake of your legacy.
