Gigglebit: Megatron really hates selfies

18 Dec 2014

Gigglebit is Siliconrepublic’s daily dose of the funny and fantastic in science and tech, to help start your day on a lighter note.

Megatron may be a futuristic war machine constructed with highly sophisticated sentient alien tech, but despite Michael Bay’s ‘best efforts’ to drag the Decepticon leader into the new millennium, he’s still a product of the 1980s at heart.

Case in point: A woman recently attempted to take a selfie with Megatron only to get a severe (and dramatic) dressing down from the enraged robot.

Click below to see Megatron berate the woman’s fashion sense, bemoan social networking and vent his disappointment at her generation. Hat-tip to Uproxx for the find.
