[[File:Ree.jpg|thumb|right|an image of [[pepe]] 'Ree'ing often found on r9k]] | |||
'''Robot''' is a the term user's of [[4chan]]'s [[r9k]] board use to self-identify often. It is a near-synonym of [[hikikomori]], the only difference being an emphasis on [[autistcel|autistic behaviour]] and chan culture, although often it's mockery of robots by non-robots who are [[astroturfing]]. Robot's engage is a kind of performance art where they exaggerate and mock their own circumstance through a subculture. One example is posting "REEEEEE" as an expression of anger, a form of self-insult making fun of obnoxious screaming those with severe autism often do. The word was born from the bot that used to run on [[r9k]] called robot9000 that rejected unoriginal content. | '''Robot''' is a the term user's of [[4chan]]'s [[r9k]] board use to self-identify often.
