That's a very good robot design. By being a somewhat bad role model he encorages people to be more moderate in their pleasures. He also serves a good example for rich people who seek new ways to have fun
I’m pretty sure at this point that he’s a specially commissioned wine maker and companion who has outlived his rich human who commissioned him, and inherited his estate.
I really love this guy’s design, the fact that his legs are the legs of the chair-thing that he’s lying on and how that’s basically his whole body is such a clever design choice. You really gotta admire some of the robot designs in this show.
Genuinely there was not a good Hedonism Bot compilation on the whole of TH-cam before this was uploaded. I have looked in the past cause he’s my favourite side-gag character. Thank you so much for this! :)
You have to love him from a design perspective. So many robots are either pure abstract mechanisms, or just human shaped with weird bits and bobs. Hedonism Bot breaks that convention in such a simple, effortless way. Framed like a fat Greek man sitting on an elongated chair. The chair built into his body, like his back, but still retaining some motion in the upper abdomen to lean forward. While the feet of the chair are his actual feet, instead of having them at the end of his abdomen area. And his arms situated at the apex of the chair, right as the headrest curves into filigree. Its extremely unorthodox, like an upside down reversed centaur, but executed to well and never questioned. Its the design work you rarely see now adays, but has so much subtle and well working elements to it. Simply because of how his body is designed, his resting pose gives you everything you need to know about him without the character needing to even say anything. And plays directly into their own habits, such as using his own stomach as a table to hold things like grapes.
In the early editions of Warhammer 40K, demon-possessed robots were a thing. Indeed, the precursors to the Necron range of models were used for this purpose. You can absolutely have a robot worshiper of Slaanesh.
"Oh! Nothing sordid, I assure you. Simply vomit on me, ever so gently, while I humiliate a pheasant." One of my top 3 favorite Futurama lines. Right below Robot Devil's "You should have read the writing in the fiiiiiine....priiiint."
I have this wonderful robot sitting on my desk in my office. Everyone is always asking "what is that?". Now they shall know the decadence of HEDONISM BOT
Hedonism bot is one of the many things in this show that went way over my head as a kid (given that "hedonism" isn't a word kids often hear). I thought he was simply eccentric.
Hedonism Bot - "Oh, what does this one do?" *picks up lava lamp* Professor - "Uh, that one kills everything everywhere." Hedonism Bot - "How delightful!" *carelessly drops it, it rolls onto the floor and breaks*
00:30 the joke is that the first opera in human history was Carmen, a story about a woman. I always liked this joke because it made all the useless information I learned at school useful for once
One of the best characters on the show by far. When I was younger, me and my roommate would go to parties and quote him when going to parties and getting drunk, esp his most quotable phrase “I APOLOGIZE FOR NOTHING!”
The thing I love most about Hedonism Bot is the idea that it derives no actual pleasure from its tendencies It's merely programmed to engage in humanlike hedonistic activities forever, pushing to extremes, while inside it's calculating and cold and dead. Yet, compelled. Just like a true nymphomanic or other extreme addict.
Hedonism: The philosophy that nobody likes to suffer, and everybody likes what they enjoy. Epicure, ancient Greek philosopher, was chastised by the stoics for being a hedonist, to which he said that he didn't like hangovers. Headonist: Someone who confronts things directly.
@@alexanderzerka8477 It is you who is missing the point of the character and show. Hedonism Bot has life figured out, and its killjoys like you that make the world as fucked up as it is. People enjoying themselves without shame literally don't hurt you, or this imaginary abstraction called society. You just have a stick up your ass and more hang-ups than a closet. Hedonism Bot is one of the show's likable characters. Then there is you, the little man afraid of his own desires and full of shame and guilt whenever you inevitably give into temptation. We are at core hairless chimps and bonobos with fancy brains. It would make sense that we would be as pleasure seeking and fun loving as they. As long as all parties involve mutually desire it and consent, there is literally nothing of moral relevance to consider. Anything else is ones personal tastes and convictions at best. You are suck a silly billy Alexander. Hedonistic or not, society has not yet gone far enough with it.
Too many of us ask "what is the practical function of hedonism bot?" That's like asking what is the practical function of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, Van Gogh's "Starry Night," or the films of Stanley Kubrick. Some things are so sublimely magnificent that their mere existence is justification in and of itself. Hedonism Bot is one of those things, you fucking barbarians...
He is a good example of how not to be. In my opinion! I do enjoy watching Futurama. It lightens the mood after a backbreaking day of hard labor. For me, a good laugh is healthy for my soul. ✌️❤️✌️❤️
