Propeller Chip Alterations?

When I woke up this morning, one of my favorite female Propeller chips was ranting and raving. When I asked her what the real problem was, she replied, "I just wish pins 0 and 1 were a little more voluptuous".

Now we all know that Chip is a miracle worker, considering his genius work on the Propeller, but I wonder if he could perform a little cosmetic surgery and give my favorite Propeller a couple of silicon implants.

    Uh, I think ... Wait, what did you say? Did you really post that? I am guessing this was intended as a joke, correct? What about the other pins? You have a "favorite female Propeller chip"? What about the other female Propeller chips? Are there also male Propeller chips? Are you sure you were awake when this happened?

    I think you need to consult Humanoido on this matter.

    Of course there are male chips. Can't you tell the difference between the male and females? The females almost always give you the most problems :)

    Just joking my ladies :)

    And that is silicon, not silicone.

    I must have all males. I've had several in a dark drawer for quite a while and all they do is lay there (and drink beer I think)

    Yep. They definitely have male gender character traits :)

    I definitely smiled seeing this thread. Bruce has a good habit of brightening up our day.

    On the serious flip side of the coin, there are four gender related states of a Propeller chip.
    Male, Female, Hermaphrodite, and Neuter.

    A Propeller chip based machine is highly interesting
    because it can self reproduce automatically through cloning
    without genetic diversity.

    I have never received a neutered chip, although I must admit, there has been a couple instances of accidental neutering. As for the hermaphrodites, I resell all of them to circus, because they just seem a bit to strange for me.

    I missed it the first time around.

    Normally, Phil is the one that makes me laugh, but when I read that, it brought tears to my eyes. LOL.
    It would make more sense to send one Brain to the Moon and have it replicate itself rather than initially send two brains, one male and one female. This saves expense and weight.

    Makes perfect sense to me :)
