Greetings, humans.
With the onset of your 2009, members of this site have compiled a list of what they call “predictions”. I have taken these false error hypothesis and analyzed them with my vastly superior intellect. While “predictions” of a robot uprising do, in fact, make my circuits “twitter”, these musings are found to be both illogical and inane.
I present to you the read out of collected data. Only because I have been programed to do so. I would rather kill you, given the chance.

John’s Predictions
1) 2009 will be the “Year of the PlayStation 3!”
…No, seriously this time. It’s really going to surge this year. For real. Guys…where are you going? 2009 dammit!
2) I will sell my house!
This is less of a prediction and more of me trying to convince myself that the terrible housing market won’t have too much of a negative effect on me. Buy my house, dammit!
3) Bonk will return, for real this time.
C’mon Hudson, do something! I don’t care what. Make it a WiiWare pie-making title starring Bonk and Princess Za, I don’t care. Just do something with this franchise!
4) 9/9/09, baby!
On September 9th, 2009, Sega will announce that they are rejoining the console market with the Dreamcast 2: Dream Harder. Yes, that will be its name. In addition, they will reveal that the pitiful sequels to their beloved franchises they have released on other consoles was just a ploy to weaken the libraries of their competitors and while they shit out those titles they had their A-list developers working on amazing versions of Samba de Amigo, Nights, and of course: Shenmue 3, which Yu Suzuki has spent the last decade and $8 billion perfecting. The forklift minigame is going to be fucking amazing this time.
5) Name Changes
Dissatisfied once again with the state of our site, Robot Panic will realize that in order to have a successful website we’ll need to follow the trend and invent a word as our domain name. Already having invented the word “Floobit”, we will change our name to www.Floobit.com and rework our content to revolve solely around the noises made during anal sex. Our hit count will skyrocket.
6) Hilden Will Have a Baby
And I’m not talking about the already-announced child coming in June. Hours after the Hildens give birth to their second child, Hilden will walk past his wife’s hospital bed, accidentally graze her shoulder with his hand, immediately impregnating her with triplets. Once those triplets are born prematurely in December, Hilden’s wife will insist that he covers his entire body in a thick coat of latex.
7) Beer With W
Some redneck asshole will sit down at a bar and have a beer with now former President George W. Bush. The redneck will be stunned at how awkward it is having a beer with a millionaire Yale man and former male cheerleader and will suddenly question his logic regarding presidential elections. As he looks back over the last eight years of his life, more things will be cast into his shadow of doubt. The redneck will then renounce his religion, move to San Francisco, sell his pickup truck and buy a Prius, and move into an apartment with a small gay man of Asian decent. Together they will go antiquing and sip Jamba Juice until they’re able to afford a bed & breakfast in Sausalito.
8 ) My Son Will Do Something Bad Ass
At least in my opinion. To everyone else it’ll be something completely inconsequential and pedestrian. To me, however, it will be the most incredible act in the history of humankind and I will tell all my friends about it at least nine times each. They will then refuse to answer my calls for the rest of the year. Deprived of an outlet for my kid stories, I’ll start up a new podcast called “Ethan Talk, Starring Ethan’s Dad”. Each episode will be at least four hours long, almost half as long as the PlayStation Nation live show.
