Yeah, that wouldn't last a day traversing the west midlands in UK. We have a collected a concentrated amount of fckwits willing to impress their peers by showing how tough they...hang on, what was that the moderators deleted from the robot's twitter??
I remember my senior class in high school did something similar to this a while back, except with hollow full body casts in strange poses. one of them was able to get down to California from Washington, the other... we found the next day in a dumpster a block from where it started.
You guys can't pin this on ALL of a America, OK? We are not a hivemind that thinks the same (just watch any of our political debates. With beers and popcorn at the ready). As a Californian, I would have happily given hitchBOT a ride to SF! I would have even taken a BART ride there with that little guy! But no, some pricks in Philly had to be trolls and spoil the fun.
So all this did was prove what we all knew, and that some people are assholes?
Also I can totally see this thread dissolving into a "let's all bash America guise! because we're so much better, right?" thread, although it pretty much already has.
Edit; Before this goes downhill, I hate nationalistic dickwaving and people arguing about how their country is "better" in general.

So there was a 3 week trip in Canada, then a separate trip in Germany lasting 10 days, it's Netherlands vacation lasted 17 days, and then at least 14 days in the US.
It's not really surprising, not because it was in the US, but because it traveled such a large distance through the East coast, one of the more heavily populated areas of the US, which is also going to have its poorer and dangerous parts too.
I'd be surprised if it managed to get all the way to its goal of the opposite coast. The U.S is a big place.
