Man hands!

This is the breakthrough we've been waiting for.

Btw, isn't that Chairman Kaga from Iron Chef?

Aww, hell... I hate being the first commenter, but WTH...

MY big question is THIS:

That's all fine and dandy, but does she taste like tuna?

(ducks, and runs!)

Oops... guess I wasn't the "first" commenter after all. PHEW. That's what I get for typing with one hand ;-P

Oddly enough, the hands were also the giveaway in Westworld -- AFAIK, the best movie to date about human-imitating (and -sexing) robots.

Nerdy preemptive first strike: Blade Runner's replicants are organisms, not robots.

did you read the book? Both the book and the movie seemed pretty ambiguous about what they were, exactly.

I guess the movie made them more explicitly biological. In the book it was never really clear to me what the hell they were.

Uh, Ace?

While I proposed a truce with the whole "old" thing just a few hours ago, you just made a *really* bad blunder here.

Not only is this old, it was already linked to on your site.

By me.

Ahem. OWNED, BITCH.

Seriously, this is by far THE BEST DAY EVER.

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

> I guess the movie made them more explicitly biological. In the book it was never really clear to me what the hell they were.

I still haven't read the book. In the movie, though, I'm pretty sure there's not a clue toward the replicants containing so much as a Zippo flint.

And now I see you referred to Westworld at the very top of the post which makes my own post both redundant and evidence that I read lazily... You win this round, Mr. O'Spades.

She'll never sell well as long as she can only sit. If they can add lay down, get on her knees, and get on all fours, I think they'll be onto something.

Oxy-Gum?

marine boy, yo

Good grief look at those hands! She could palm Howard Dean's ass!

Which one, the one he sits on or the one atop his shoulders?

I wonder if she can shake a banana with them...

Slowly, of course, and without mashing it.

ace, speaking of Pris, why the HELL hasn't We Can Build You been adapted yet?

Is that your secret script you're sitting on? No, no, you said it was a comedy ...

... welll ... I guess to a certain sort of mind WCBY is funny ...

Okay, since you have all proudly surrendered to the
perverts within...

When are they coming out with a male roboslut? You know, the one that looks kinda hot and will go with you to a footballl game? But it won't drink all your beer and mess up your house?

Authoring this post without an Oliver Willis joke is a travesty.

Come on, what the hell kind of technogeek builds an Asian electro bimbo without huge bionic boobs?

I sense that the Japanese are playing with the minds of the West.

Man, I totally lost it when you wrote "electrotrollope" - absolutely hysterical. I think the man-hands are deliberate, though, probably some Japanese fetish thing. Or, they are there for more crushing power as the inevitable robo-assassins come around. Whatever, right?

Am I dreaming of electric sheep? Blade runners are only a few years away. Sheesh...

C'mon, people, it's obvious this is the prototype for the housebound wife who keeps the sake hot and the sushi cold. If this were a Japanese sexbot, she'd be a Sailor Moon blonde with a pair of 44F's who has an unlimited charge card for the local soiled panty vending machine and a hotter, younger sister who's ever such a curious thing and needs the firm hand of Western discipline.

I mean, really.

I think the shaved teenage whore model will outsell this aged mommy any day. The one I have is quite a looker. Even better than ACE's porno collection.

OK. I'll say it. No one else seems to be willing to step up to the plate.

Dave, I generally like your posts here. And, the few times I have visited your blog...I was moderately entertained. And, I realize that you and Ace are...like compadres and all...

BUT.. We DON'T GIVE A SHIT if you posted a link first. The first time you did this whole schtick it was a mild amusement. Now, it is just f***ing annoying. STFU already about who posted something first. We don't care. It may not be new to you, but it damn well could be new to us. And...as you have oft stated within these comments...many of us don't read your blog.

Repeat: Your continual, lame scolding of Ace is tiring, unfunny, and uninteresting. No one cares if you got the scoop on the big story.

Other than that, I really do like your posts :-0

I'm trying to decide how much of a turn off it will be that she is "powered by a nearby air compressor".

If you are unfamiliar with these things they are:

a: loud
b: given to turning on at unexpected moments

Maybe she will have an extra long air compressor hose option so you can put the power plant somewhere else?

Wow, Shadow-- if only you had mentioned your distaste for my schtick months ago, I might have stopped earlier.

Really, I'm sorry I offended you with my teasing of Ace.

Is there some way I can tease Ace that *would* please you? I would appreciate your advice, as long as it doesn't involve "analingus" and "go fuck yourself, you piece of filthy wormshit."

Of course, had you visited my site, you would have read that the whole thing is over now.

Then again, knowing how much it pisses *you* off makes me think I should keep it going.

You are such a raging fucktard for getting pissed off at this sort of thing. Don't you know there's a war on?

Get HIV and die a wet death,

P.S. Nothing personal :-)

Dave,

I'm glad we could come to an understanding.

she has 31 actuators in her upper body, powered by a nearby air compressor, programmed to allow her to move like a human.

It's not her upper body I'm concerned about, but can she fuck like a snake?

"but can she fuck like a snake"

I'm hoping this is just a mixed metaphor and doesn't reflect personal experience!

Christopher:

You forgot to mention the tentacles.

Hey, Ace, don't get too down about Dave @ GR owning you: he apparently owns slashdot, as well:

I'll put a deposit right now on an Angelia Jolie model.

huh-huh, huh-huh... I'll put a deposit on that too.

If they could give her the same functions as an "RealDoll" I would buy one.
