Top 10 Emmy the Robot Comics
2. A Joke for Emmy
In this comic, Emmy hears a joke about a horse walking into a bar. Her comedic naivety shines as she attempts to make the joke funnier by suggesting the inclusion of two horses. The unexpected punchline reveals the humor in her literal interpretation of the world, making it clear that Emmy’s understanding of humor is both charming and hilariously offbeat. Her robotic nature mixed with human-like curiosity leads to a delightful, comedic moment where the absurdity of the joke only grows more funny through her enthusiasm.
2. The Old Chair
When Emmy offers a child the option to sleep in an old chair, the conversation quickly turns humorous. The child is initially skeptical, but Emmy reassures them by saying the chair is comfortable—because a possum once had its babies in it. The humor is further heightened by her inability to see why this would be off-putting. The child, although slightly disgusted, accepts the chair and its bizarre backstory, adding a layer of humor to the situation. It’s a perfect example of Emmy’s quirky logic and comedic innocence.
3. Goldfish Dilemma
4.Robot Stories
In this comic, Emmy reflects on her role as a nanny robot, sharing her disillusionment with the lack of exciting stories about robots like her. When asked if there are any stories about nanny robots, she is surprised to find there are none. Her attempt to understand the concept of interesting robot stories leads her to conclude that her life as a caretaker, while fulfilling, doesn’t make for an exciting adventure. This introspective moment, filled with robotic charm, turns into an amusing commentary on the difference between human and robot experiences.
5. Sewing Fail
Emmy tries to repair a tear in a garment by hand, claiming she doesn’t need a sewing machine. Despite her confident assertion, things go awry when the fabric rips further under the pressure of her attempt. Her robotic solution? A “double stitch,” which she offers as a quick fix. The sequence is both funny and endearing as Emmy remains undeterred by her failed attempt. The comic brilliantly plays with the contrast between her mechanical approach to problem-solving and the human emotional reactions we might expect in such situations.
6. Morning Routine Chaos
In this comic, Emmy finds herself involved in the chaotic task of getting children ready for school. She calmly tries to keep things under control while the child rushes around, exhibiting the usual frantic behavior of someone trying to catch the bus. Emmy, with her mechanical nature, remains unfazed by the pandemonium, offering dry, unflappable observations. Meanwhile, the children continue in their usual hectic routine. The humor lies in Emmy’s detached, robot-like manner of responding to the chaos, making this comic an excellent showcase of her delightful personality.
7. Old vs. New Emmy
When Emmy introduces a new class pet hamster to a child, she wonders aloud if having two Emmys would be confusing. The comic humorously explores the idea of naming the hamster “New Emmy,” to which the child jokingly refers to herself as “Old Emmy.” This leads to Emmy’s own humorous take on the situation, suggesting that the introduction of a new “Emmy” will inevitably cause confusion. The comic’s humor comes from Emmy’s literal interpretation of the child’s joke, leading to a funny exchange about names and identity.
8. Tucking In Trouble
In this comic, Emmy is caught in a funny scenario when she mistakenly tries to tuck in a child who no longer needs to be tucked into bed. Emmy’s mechanical instincts take over, as she is used to caring for younger children who need help at bedtime. When the child rejects her offer to tuck them in, Emmy’s attempts become more awkward and endearing. This comic highlights Emmy’s well-meaning, yet hilariously misguided, robotic nature as she tries to care for children who have grown past the need for such help.
9. The Baby Whisperer
In a classroom scenario, Emmy is called upon to demonstrate how to calm a crying infant. In typical Emmy fashion, her solution to the problem is extreme—she suggests that silencing the crying would involve suppressing the noise until it stops, though not in a way one would expect. Her literal interpretation of the situation and the resulting panic from the teacher demonstrate Emmy’s inability to understand subtle human emotions and the gentle care required for such delicate situations. This comic’s humor shines through her robotic, over-the-top responses.
10. Robot Skills & Certainty
In this comic, Emmy proudly showcases her many talents, from her fluency in over 15 languages to her ability to understand advanced mathematics. With great confidence, she lists her abilities, all while emphasizing how prepared she is for any challenge. The comic’s humor stems from the contrast between Emmy’s over-the-top self-assurance and the more modest needs she was built for. It humorously exaggerates the idea of a robot nanny being more equipped than necessary, blending pride with an element of robotic absurdity.
