Goggles wouldn't never make it to Hollywood... Only because every other actor will be put out of a job do to his perfect skills to enter your heart... Someone make this movie

The fact that it's a lone bot still working on an abandoned place indeed makes it similar to Wall-E.
sppoky :(

Kill it and end its misery

Lets just hope this thing doesn't gain sentience.

OK, we need Goggles for Stickpage now.
Bring him over!
Bring him over!

Oh man, I remember Goggles.
I haven't even seen those particular messages until now. Takes on a much darker feel.

Seems like this bot has witnessed things no man should ever see.
However, it seems like a good idea to bring it back, some humor ever now and then wouldn't be bad.

We don't have an actual portal yet so Goggles won't have anything to post. Nobody uses that 'hidden' portal, too, so yeah.

Here's a little improv prompt that I thought I'd share, loosely based on this.
The Merge. While it was remembered by many Stickpagians as the dawn of a new beginning, it marked the beginning of the end for the former inhabitants of FluidAnims. As citizens began to flock to this new frontier and its proposed opportunities, it spelled disaster for the Old Forum. The OZ system grew defunct and decrepit as fewer and fewer people remained to keep the proverbial life-blood flowing. Shops began to close and resources became increasingly scarce. Chaos erupted as those too stubborn or too attached were forced to fight over what little remained of the nigh-forgotten society's former riches. The conflicts began to spill over to Stickpage as those who fled began blaming the New Forum for the Collapse, and the conflicts escalated to full-on warfare between the two powers.
It was that same day that the first F-Bomb fell. Nobody can seem to recall who gave the order, but the resulting catastrophe awakened the ancient AI, known affectionately by the moniker "Jeff," who was the guardian of FluidAnims in its heyday and had followed the migration to Stickpage, where the technological advances developed by him had greatly benefitted the New Forum. The automatons that once acted under extensions of Jeff's programming were brought to bear against the rebellious survivors of the Collapse who now threatened the existence of both sites as Jeff himself performed emergency repairs on Stickpage. It was in a single day that two years of warfare was undone and the rebellion swiftly quelled. With no technicians around to maintain the FluidAnims custodial robots, the abandoned Forum's activity slowed to a halt. Or so we all believed. Deep within the FA's forgotten Archives, a single servitor of the News extension had continued to broadcast as it had done since its activation. The alien signal was recently picked up in Jeff's scan of the Old Forum and was identified by the warmind as "Goggles." Goggles was responsible for announcing the top five submissions, keeping citizens informed about their submissions, and other such tasks. Jeff had been in a joking mood and upon discovering one of his forgotten machines, it seemed like some migrants might remember the old droid and its slightly dark sense of humor...
