Futurama is 30% Star Trek references, 50% real overcomplicated maths and language jokes, and 20% msg.

The list of Bender's claimed composition adds up to over 100%, so he can be a dubious source (episode codes in brackets):

40% Zinc (1ACV13).

40% Titanium (2ACV03).

30% Iron (3ACV22), presumably mixed with osmium, (3ACV17).

40% Dolomite (4ACV07).

40% Lead (video game).

40% empty (s07e09)

40% back (s7e21 Assie come back)

0.04% Nickel impurity - (3ACV17 - A Pharaoh to Remember)

There was also a claim that he was 40% chromium (not made by Bender but by someone else - 6ACV03). In addition to those, he's also claimed to be 40% horseshoes (ITWGY), 40% Wire (7ACV03) and 40% scrap metal (6ACV23), either of which could be any of the above metals or something else.

Bender? Unreliable? Shut your mouth!

That could still be true if he's made of an alloy

99.95% Benderium

0.04% Nickel Impurity

0.01% Dimondillium

Diamondillium? Diamondium is far better!

MomCorp is known to cut corners 😔

I'm perfectly satisfied with the theory that bender simply is 430.04% or more in total.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yep, running into that 100% limit is why scientists increased the percentage limit. They did it right after they increased the speed of light.

And just some ordinary water.
