It should come as no surprise to anybody that the world’s first sex robot is a woman. I mean, everybody knows that we’re obsessed with sex. Now, imagine a guy who needs to lose a little weight… do you think he’d rather shell out a few grand on top of the line ellipticals , or a new sexbot? Also, this is one workout that you won’t get burned out on. On the gross side, you’re going to have to clean it.

Ewww. I hear that next year, this same company is coming out with a version for women- it doesn’t have a penis, but it does the dishes and takes out the trash. I kid, I kid… actually, it does household chores for the first year or so, then at some point it stops doing housework and it just sits around the house watching football and drinking beer.

Robot Surfing

Ever wonder how technology will change surfing? No? Me neither. And now I don’t have to, as I’ve seen the future of surfing, and it looks like it could become a very expensive video game. I mean, look at that place- this guy can’t even afford area rugs ! Ah, the lengths guys will go to for a bit of video game action.

Speaking of video games, I’ve been addicted to the most recent Banjo-Kazooie video game on the 360. I begrudginly admit that this game is loads and loads of fun. Of course, you have to like driving a little to enjoy this game. The real appeal is creating new machines out of a bunch of parts- it kinda reminds me of playing with LEGOs.

Transformers Soundwave MP3 Player Is Pure Modern-Retro Awesome

I would proudly rock out to this sweet looking retro transformers MP3 player. It is totally awesome, and reminds me of the ipod of my day- the walkman. I spent many an hour walking around, riding the bus and rocking out with my headphones on. Batteries were in high demand, and I would sometimes rewind my cassettes by hand to save some juice. That isn’t an issue with this SD-card enabled MP3 player. All it needs is a little cassette that turns into some sort of quadroped, and I think I might just jizz in my pants from retro-nostalgia glee.
