Robot (r9k): Difference between revisions

'''Robot''' is a the term users of [[4chan]] created and self-identify with 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.
