I was just going to say something really dirty but stopped myself in time. Honestly, I blame dbermanmd for my current obsession with bestiality jokes.
The big dog sounds like the biggest fly on the planet. My dog Digby is still looking for whatever it was that made that sound come out of my laptop.
That thing looks to me more like a four-legged spider than a dog. it bears no resemblance whatsoever to a dog. Maybe a drunken horse, but definitely not a sober one. I am sure there are industrial uses for a machine that can walk on 4 legs. It can go where wheels cannot. And it's impressive that it maintains its balance when the guy kicks it. But calling it a dog??? Gimme a break! At least the Japanese robot girl has a human-looking face.
Would be kind of neat to leave the two stroke motor on the robot woman. Outdoor use only though, or the exhaust fumes would kill you. I'm sure they could design an all-electric model for home use But say you're way out in BFE camping .... suddenly at 2am the woods are awoken by .... BUDDUDDUUDD BUDDUDUUDDDUUUDsputter ... sputter RRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!! RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!
Quite frankly, I'm offended by that. When it comes to bestiality jokes - any jokes involving sex - I'm light years beyond Berman
Just curious if you were out in a field somewhere, with Digby, and that thing suddenly sprung out of the brush and started walking towards you, would Digby: a) Stand his ground to defend his master or b) Run like hell in the opposite direction, with his master running almost as quickly If I were walking around my hobby farm and that thing burst out of the bush, I'd probably poop myself and run like hell
This model is barely out of the lab. Can you imagine how advanced it will be in 5-10 years? I got to thinking about that thing lurching around, and suddenly remembered a movie with Val Kilmer I saw a few years ago: Red Planet. They had a robot thing called AIMEE that - naturally - went monkey s*** on them and Val had to blow it up
c) Bark his head off at it, but never let it get very close. My other dog, Dingo, would run right up to it though. I agree, there is something incredibly creepy about it. I think its the noise it makes. Have you ever seen the David Lynch film "Eraserhead"? Its just about as annoying as that.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! "Hey buddy, finish up already! We're trying to sleep here!"
When I was a kid, robots in futuristic movies were benevolent. Nowadays they're all psychotic. I think this tells us something about our national psyche. We used to be optimistic about the future. Now we all believe we're moving into an age of abominable horrors.
It would be *really* funny if they ran right up to the lurching, creeping thing and started licking it. You'd be on your own ... run like hell! I think I saw that movie. I was just creeped out over the lurching ambling gait, the noise would only just add to the Creep Factor
Dingo would try to chase and herd it like she does with other dogs at the dog park. If you have ever seen Eraserhead, you would remember it. Its the worst film I've ever seen. Its really baaaaaad. [ame]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eraserhead[/ame]
Yes, I agree. It's a reflection of our national psyche that our vision of the future has shifted from Utopian to Dystopian Recent movies that attempt to foretell the 2030-2080 time period absolutely reflect this. A lot of Dystopian prediction is from the late science fiction writer Philip K Dick (A Scanner Darkly, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, Valis, Minority Report, We Can Remember It For You Wholesale, etc) Quite frankly, considering how decadent and sinister we have become as a society, I really do believe our future will be one of abominable horror
Nope I haven't seen it I was thinking of something else. I'd remember something that bad Back to robot women powered by small noisy two stroke motors: RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
Oh please. Robots have always been deadly. Asimov was writing about the dangers of robots back in the 40s. There are too many flaws in the "3 laws". You want proof?
Imagine if your Love Robot Model XZ5-T suddenly ran amok in the middle of .... The horror ... the horror ...
