You’re scrolling through your Instagram feed and rolling your eyes because that friend of yours is always posting lame cat photos. Instead of silently groaning, go ahead, take action.

Thanks to allen & gerritsen Labs, there’s a new trash-talking robot at your service.

The Center City marketing agency’s innovation arm (whose past hits include a Twitter-powered Nerf gun and an RFID-powered Tic-tac-toe game) has built, yes, a sassy Instagram robot. Called Pic Nix, the system lets you “anonymously drop the hammer” on your friends’ cliché Instagrams.

Try it

You know you want to.

  1. You know what the world needs? An easier way for people to bully. Because we don’t have enough teens killing themselves as a result of the bullying that goes on online and offline already. What a shame that such a talented agency decided to use their brainpower for evil instead of good. Imagine if they had created an app that allowed people to boost each other up on Instagram instead of tearing them down while veiled in anonymity. I’m sure the developing agency will say “Hey guys, it was a joke,” but that’s the same age-old excuse people use to try and make unacceptable behavior acceptable. Calling it a joke doesn’t make cruelty funny or okay. Shameful, indeed.
