This past Sunday Brooklyn was host to a Robot Parade. Why? Some residents put one together and marched their metallic legs from Park Slope to Prospect Park, "just for fun." Check out more photos of their journey, here.

i could have sworn some dummy told me there were no hipsters in park slope.
This is awesome.
Haha that looks like so much fun. Of course, I have no doubt the lion's share of the comments here will be anonymous bits of vitriol skewering these "hipster doofuses" for going outside, being creative, and having fun. On a weekend no less.
If the NYPD can pull out riot control to bust heads at a Free Tibet protest, surely they can do the same thing in this situation. These hipsters are out of control and need to be put in their place.
IF these are "hipsters" then I guess I like hipsters. Once again, i don't think anyone knows what the fuck that word means.
Also, to anyone griping about this... What is there to gripe about? really? confounded.
"It is the distant future...the year 2000. The humans are dead"
why don' t the hipsters stay in williamsburg? get the fuck out of the slope
We used poisonous gases. To poison their asses.
Lets celebrate the hipster invasion of Douche Slope. The neighborhood for yuppies and insufferable bores. Oh, and sour-pusses.
How are you people so sure that they are not i-bankers and hedge fund managers underneath those robot costumes? They should have a Union Bar sit-in to box out the moms and their broods.
god that looks like fun.
AMAZING robots FTW
I love how people complain about "hipsters" on what is a "hipster" blog. LAL.
Hipsters vs. Breeders showdown at the Slope...I hope there are no winners.
I for one am glad that our robot overlords have been programmed to enjoy a nice weekend stroll.
It's called Union Hall...
I always wondered what would get us first... the robots or the zombies. Question answered!
More please!
guess we're not in a recession when people have so much free time to do this.
thankfully Pb is still cheap.
and, yes they could be I-bankers. I've seen them do a mock running of the bulls.
Only losers live in Brooklyn.
This stupid parade proves it.
Since a majority of the Park Slope population are hipsters due to clear statistical evidence, one can only conclude that these 'Marching Robots are indeed, hipsters. Only hipsters are capable of such lunacy and outward hip-ness. Knowing the true definition of the term 'Hipster' is irrelevant, especially in light of such irrefutable evidence, that they are indeed, hipsters.
I'll take the robot parade any day of the week over the stroller parade.
Park Slope is FULL of D-Bags to the brim. I bet these guys are trustfund babies that all live in willamsburg. I COULD DO SOMETHING WAY BETTER THAN THAT! What a stupid fucking idea. Robots are so yesterday. Why didn't they have a Burt Reynolds Parade or a fucking Chuck Norris parade instead. They should call it Park Stupid.
White people do the craziest things. God love 'em.
This was so amazing! You normally don't see this kind of stuff in the slope. It's mostly baby strollers there. You'd have to go to williamsburg for this kind of thing.
You guys rock! Hipsters rule!
bravo "hipkid123"!
your post as a hipper than thou hipster made me lol.
How about a parade of robotic moms and babies, marching down to Union Hall?? That would be ironic even for non-hipsters.
The robot parade was OK, but then we all went home and had a robot orgy, which was fantastic.
I poked one. He's dead.

I like robots.
I suggest a compromise... the park slope mommies can dress their kids up like robots. If hipsters or whatever want to volunteer to help kids dress up and have a robot parade, i commend them. because dressing up like a robot is cool if you're a kid.
If you're 24 and doing that, and it's not Halloween, then you are just seeking attention, and deserve whatever spite is cast upon you.
well, gee, eyekantspel, what if you're 34, or even 44, and doing that?
and, what kind of spite does a closed-minded, judgmental know-it-all deserve?
did they advertise this thing beforehand?
yeah yeah i agree with you productive internet trollers fuck imagination and all these adults walking around in eye-catching costumes that they created for no apparent reason other than the sake of creation itself and why don't they just go back to the couch and flip through their junk mail or back to the cubicle and hunch up in front of the monitor or back to the bar with the 15 TVs playing espn and espn2 and nbc and cbs and their presentations in which grown men in eye-catching costumes run around either trying to bump into each other or not bump into each other and throw some object into another object or keep one object from not going into that other object yeah yeah yeah why don't these hipsters just grow up and stop trying to be so eye-catching all the time j. crew spring collection alone i think has our required dose of fun and color down you know it's like why are they trying so hard to carpe diem or whatever bullshit it's like jesus grow up already and stop making such a damn racket all the time we get it we're all alive fine whatever that's why you go to your church or your temple and thank god for still being around and promise if you don't make a big fuss all the time you can hang around longer you know right because the new indiana jones is coming out and the yankees are playing their last season in that stadium and why can't people just have fun sitting on a bench in the park or eating pizza or trying to go on dates or trying on new outfits or getting a new pepper grinder for the kitchen or mariah carey cd for the martini party with some people from work later on if they want to enjoy themselves this is just ridiculous
Hey Mott, you should go to a poetry slam, they would love you.
That may be the longest run-on sentence I've ever read. Bravo!
I, for one, am outraged that a bunch of people decided to have fun and be creative on a Saturday afternoon. My one year old was so enthralled, it almost made us late for her pre- kindergarten tutoring. I pay 22,000 dollars a year for that class! Lousy "hipsters".
You are all missing the point here people:
First the robots parade, next they want equal rights, and then one day their obedience chips malfunction and ZAP!
Laser in your face.
Do you want to die from a laser in the face?
So I was buying these super skinny jeans the other day(duh), over at Monks, and I was thinking about what a bunch of attention deprived sissies the people under those "costumes" must have been. Seriously, why CAN'T they grow up? Fucking Robots. If I ever had a parade, it would be so cool, because it would be a parade full of robot ass-kicking ninjas with Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen masks on....and when they got done stomping a mudhole in those robots asses.....everyone in Park Slope would rejoice and make me their king because we had kicked those stupid robot's asses. Then the people of Park Slope and I would remain forever in our protective little cocoons, safe from all threats of idiots and parades.
