A Call For YOUR Creativity: Crowdsourcing Kilroy!
February 1, 2010
Yo, 7th Son fans — I’ve got a killer concept cooking over here, and I need YOUR help.
With the help of some super-savvy iPhone app developers, I’ll soon unleash a cool Kilroy-themed app for the iPhone and iPod touch. We’re cramming lots of goodies inside, but the show-stopping main feature will be a sassy, talking Kilroy2.0!
The gist: When you give your phone a solid “shake,” the mad hacker Kilroy2.0 himself will spout one of dozens of random quotes. He’ll be a delightful, giggling mess, saying such things as “Shake, shake, shake your Kilroy” and “I just rooted your iPhone” … and of course, “Kilroy2.0 is evvvvrywhere.”
The twist: We’ve got an aggressive deadline for this project, so I need YOUR help to write dozens of funny Kilroy quotes for the app, which I’ll record and port into the program. Are you up for “becoming” Kilroy and putting words in my most famous character’s mouth? If so, keep reading!
Participating in this fun, creative crowdsource project is easy-peasy:
- Simply think of as many fun (and funny!) one-liners that you think Kilroy would say, and post them in the comments.
- You can include many quote ideas in a single comment.
- The best user-created quotes will make it into the app!
- Be sure to include your name in your blog comment … we’ll include your name in the app’s credits!
And that’s it! If you wanna participate, you gotta do so at Hutch-speed — and I move fast. The deadline for your Kilroy2.0 one-liners is this Wednesday, Feb. 3. So channel your inner Kilroy, cook up some fun one-liners and post them in the comments!
–J.C.

Got something to say?



“Kilroy 2.0 doesn’t jailbreak. I do it myself!”
This sounds like an awesome idea, but if Kilroy 2.0 is going to be everywhere, a Android app is needed as well. You wouldn’t have to worry about trying to get it through Apple’s approval process.
2 cents are in the mail.

Pedestrian cogs try to glean the secrets of my omnipresence. They fail.

How much
storage capacity? Just how much data can you store here?”
“We’re computer!s” …. “Computers!
Data! One-oh-oh-one-one-one-oh-one-ohhhhh—”
@Jim R — One step at a time, boss. Chime in with a one-liner suggestion!
@alphanitrate — AWESOME suggestions! I dare say all four one-liners will make the cut!
I would lol if Kilroy 2.0 said “Is that an iPhone in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?”
In all fairness they aren’t mine – they are yours. I couldn’t see it going through without them.
Well simply put my one liner is …
KillRoy 2.0 – “Roy is War”
followed by death and mayhem.
“Root this!” (followed by mad giggling)
“Will you be my new disciple?”
I’ll let you know if I think of any more…

“The government doesn’t want you to know truth, but I have it my disciples. They, the United States government, is responsible for ‘Jersey Shore’.”
Can you believe it took me a half hour to come up with that?
This data is riveting, almost.. orbital.
Stop shaking my memory totality!

HAAA! You guys are KILLING me with these quotes! Thanks so much, and keep ‘em coming. Great stuff!
“Naughty pictures are a security risk.”
“Dipping your iPhone in chocolate will lead to a decrease in performance, but an increase in deliciousness.”
“I will not be the last Son to get laid. I will not.”
“when am I gonna get ported to the ipad?”
Kilroy like Fritos, Kilroy like Tab and Mountain Dew….
“ohhhh, this touch screen is tickelish!”
“you can shake Kilroy, but you can’t break Kilroy”
“Why go ON the web when you can go UNDER it?!”
(Yes, this is all that my pathetic brain has been able to come up with for a quote so far… sigh…)
I can’t believe no one has said “Do you comply?” yet.
“Heh, heh… I control the horizontal… I control the vertical…”
“Shake well before opening!”
“Ring ring… ring ring… BANANA PHONE!” (I loved this ringtone)
There are parts of the net you cannot see. Those parts glare back at you, through my eyes.
What Kilroy wants, the web wants. And the web always gets what it wants.
If you could find me, if you could touch me, I would have already destroyed you.
Information is the bullet…your meat mind the the target…
I’m in your line code, now. We’re all a subroutine of the divine.
Omnipotence? There’s an app for that, too…~mad giggling~
Sync with the divine. Back up your soul. Join me in the hear and now…
Killroy 2.0 doesn’t need help Jailbreaking….
Just say “I comply.” You know you’re going to anyway.
“This is cool and all but I still wouldn’t buy a Mac.”
which beta clone number are you?
Power corrupts: Absolute power is mine – absolutely. ( Kilroy laughs)
(Kilroy in disbelieving voice) YOU DARE TO CHALLENGE ME!!!
(Screen goes dark for 5 seconds).
Can you hear it? The walls are telling you to comply. Do you comply?
Will you comply when the call comes?
My disciples are ready to play.
Your eyes are looking, pedestrian, but are they seeing?
Only the walls know, and they whisper me their secrets.
I will anal mow you. And no, that isn’t an anagram.
My mind is a temple. My body, not so much.

“It’s funny that you think you’re shaking me when I’m the one shaking you.”
“Shaking your iPhone isn’t going to get you Code Phantom Clearance, you know.”
(Still nothing brilliant yet, but I hope it’s better…)

Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you, you know…

Hahaha Kilroy shaking up the establishment hehehe
I don’t have an iPhone, so I don’t know the rules… but if you can get away with it, your Kilroy app absolutely MUST have the ‘End of line, bitch’ quote. Just thinking of it makes me giggle…
