[[Animated scripts|Mobile scripts]] that automatically crawl around the canvas and delete everything in their paths. Roombas function much slower than manual wiping and are usually limited to a small radius around the center. Despite this, these scripts are almost universally despised since they lack the ability to distinguish between spam and [[Art|original content]].

The first roombas originated from [[Your World of Text]] in late 2022, and were created by a user who was simply named The Janitor. They were then duplicated by a user named [[Catha'Vi]], who brought them to OWOT in 2024. Another scripter named [[Prohibit]] would later create their own roomba in 2025, though this one didn't see much use.

=== Black hole script ===

A script from November 2025 that slowly sucks in text in a small radius. The center switches periodically between a full block unicode and a note link that didn't appear to contain anything.

The creator was later revealed to be a scripter named [[Banksy]], who had been an anon up until December 20th, 2025.

=== Bomb throwing script ===

~~Throws a bomb~~, which ~~arcs~~ across the canvas and ~~detonates~~ into a small unicode ~~explosion~~. The user can control the direction and distance of the throw.

Another script by Banksy. This one throws bombs, which arc across the canvas and detonate into small unicode explosions. The user can control the direction and distance of the throw.

A version of the script also included a mobile tank from which the bombs would be fired.<gallery mode="packed" heights="~~200~~">
