Say you needed to sort gumballs by color. Say you were colorblind like Hickey or your sorting fingers were mangled in a thresher? What should you do? Well, the best solution is to build a Mindstorms NXT robot to sort your gumballs for you and, potentially, encourage you sort out your damn priorities, nerd.

Sorry. Actually, I’m jealous of this guy simply because I always wanted to do cool stuff with Lego and the other kids on my block always took the big green board from me and then then pantsed me. So when I see people having fun with Lego, it hurts. It hurts bad.
