Futurama is 30% Star Trek references, 50% real overcomplicated maths and language jokes, and 20% msg.

The list of Bender's claimed composition adds up to over 100%, so he can be a dubious source (episode codes in brackets):

40% Zinc (1ACV13).

40% Titanium (2ACV03).

30% Iron (3ACV22), presumably mixed with osmium, (3ACV17).

40% Dolomite (4ACV07).

40% Lead (video game).

40% empty (s07e09)

40% back (s7e21 Assie come back)

0.04% Nickel impurity - (3ACV17 - A Pharaoh to Remember)

There was also a claim that he was 40% chromium (not made by Bender but by someone else - 6ACV03). In addition to those, he's also claimed to be 40% horseshoes (ITWGY), 40% Wire (7ACV03) and 40% scrap metal (6ACV23), either of which could be any of the above metals or something else.

Bender? Unreliable? Shut your mouth!

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That could still be true if he's made of an alloy

99.95% Benderium

0.04% Nickel Impurity

0.01% Dimondillium

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Diamondillium? Diamondium is far better!

MomCorp is known to cut corners 😔

I'm perfectly satisfied with the theory that bender simply is 430.04% or more in total.

[–] Slatlun@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Yep, running into that 100% limit is why scientists increased the percentage limit. They did it right after they increased the speed of light.

And just some ordinary water.
