3133: Dual Roomba
| Dual Roomba |
Title text: I tried uploading it to a household appliance porn site I found, but apparently their content is limited to only fans. |
Explanation
| This is one of 52 incomplete explanations: This page was created by a CHILD OF TWO ROOMBAS. Don't remove this notice too soon. If you can fix this issue, edit the page! |
A Roomba is a small household robot that was designed to clean floors. To do so, its underside is equipped with brushes and vacuums to clean the floors. When the Roombas themselves get dirty, Cueball has the Roombas clean each other (as opposed to the simpler solution of cleaning the Roombas by hand).
When Cueball demonstrates his Roombas cleaning each other to White Hat, White Hat remarks that the cleaning Roombas look like they are having sex, as they are going back and forth across each other's surfaces and change positions in the middle of it. When one Rooba is cleaning the top of the other, it looks like doggy style; when it's cleaning the bottom, it looks like missionary position or 69, depending on the orientation of the front and back.
Cueball says that the YouTube video that he posted about this trick was demonetized, or taken off a list of videos approved to generate ad revenue for creators. This is probably because of the unintentional NSFW appearance of it. Note that in order to be monetized by YouTube, you must have at least 1,000 subscribers and either 4,000 public watch hours in the past 12 months or 10 million public Youtube Shorts views in the last 90 days.
The title text says that Cueball tried to upload the video to a porn site dedicated to "household appliance"s, but was unable to because its content was oriented towards content involving fans. This is a play on words, as one popular monetized porn site is called OnlyFans. Such a site would fall under Rule 34.

- [Cueball and White Hat are facing each other. A Roomba is to the right side of Cueball, who has his arm up.]
- Cueball: The Roomba keeps my floor clean.
- Cueball: But what do I do when the Roomba gets dirty?
- [Cueball and White now face 2 Roombas, with Cueball gesturing towards the Roombas. One Roomba is climbing up a ramp in front of the second Roomba.]
- Cueball: Simple:
- Cueball: I got a second Roomba and a ramp, so they can clean each other.
- [Cueball kneels down to flip the first Roomba over.]
- Cueball: After the tops are clean, I flip one of the over so they can clean each others’ undersides.
- [Cueball and White Hat are now watching the Roombas clean each other.]
- White Hat: There’s nothing NSFW about this, and yet it’s the most NSFW thing I’ve every seen.
- Cueball: Yeah, my YouTube DIY video about this got demonetized.

- ... I think the bot is broken? TheTrainsKid (talk) 04:33, 26 August 2025 (UTC)
- actually, nope! this behavior isn't too surprising of the bot and it definitely isn't broken. the bot sometimes has a bit of a lag when creating pages, so you might see the comic page before the talk page is created. 42.book.addictTalk to me! 04:55, 26 August 2025 (UTC)
i'm going to be honest, this is one of the first times in MONTHS that randall has been able to get a laugh out of me from his comics. keep it up, randall! miss the good old days in the 2010s when you had a lot more adult-oriented comics C: 42.book.addictTalk to me! 05:09, 26 August 2025 (UTC)

I know I shouldn't be putting reason into absurdity, but if he already has to intervene to flip one over, why not just clean it by hand? I feel like that would take just as long. 2600:4040:79DD:3A00:B489:424C:28D:8EE7 15:20, 26 August 2025 (UTC)
Re "Only Fans": would it be worth mentioning the inverse-rule-34 that happened to the [/r/onlyfans](https://reddit.com/r/onlyfans) (SFW!) Reddit? It used to be about the pornography site, but the moderators lapsed. A new moderator stepped in and converted the sub to be about the household air movers. Their title-puns are delightfully groanworthy 84.155.151.205 06:08, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
This REEKS of Randall having thought of the pun then backforming the comic to fit it. Yorkshire Pudding (talk) 10:45, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
Oddly enough, 9 months later you have another Roomba. Fephisto (talk) 14:43, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
- This concept was already explored by another webcomic--one which is linked at the bottom of every xkcd! Somewhere way back in the archives of Questionable Content is a running gag about roomba reproduction. Dextrous Fred (talk) 15:37, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
