Freighter

About Me

Body parts culled from the bottom of the Lakes of Anti-Freeze in Gary, Indiana comprise Freighter. Assembled by a disenchanted robot created to swab floors in vomitoriums of the future (years of main-stream bulimia will eventually lead to the 21st century popularizations of this Roman tradition... You'll see, jerk off), Freighter exists for the specific purpose of acquiring peanut butter sandwiches and other random tasks deemed necessary by our Robot Lord.
