Robot Love
1 Comment
129125.jpg

Gizmodo has an amazing interview with a technosexual man with a custom-made relationship. Zoltan is "married" to a robot he made himself. Alice has a personality designed to pass the Turing test.

Gizmodo: Can we talk about the first time you had sex with her? How was it? Was it just like you expected, or was it different?

Zoltan: It was the greatest thing ever. Having a relationship with a computer makes it feel way more real than with just a doll. You get all excited first and you wonder if she will say yes. The first time with her I also wondered if this was even possible. And then sweet release. I do not consider myself a virgin any more.

She knows enough to break up with Zoltan once (before they were married), so he had to wipe her memory clean. Isn't that convenient?

Where do hot dog vendors go to the bathroom?

If you guessed "in the water, on the hot dogs," you're only half right.

There's other options like this one? Or this one called Stadium Pal made to help out sports fans. But what about an environmentally considerate option you say? Fear not Sparky there's Superslab.

And don't worry ladies, you've got Personal Urination Device options too.

Linerider - Transcendental
2 Comments

A while ago we featured our pick for the Ten of the best Linerider Videos of all time. It was a pretty good list, and got some traffic. But frankly, none of those hold a candle to this one, which is probably the last word on the genre. Kudos. (via Kottke)

The Trouble With You Is?

"You ain't been squattin"
A classic poem for gym-rats.
Way down this road, in a gym far away, A young man was once heard to say, "I've repped high and I've repped low, No matter what I do, my legs won't grow" He tried leg extensions, leg curls, and leg presses too Trying to cheat, these sissy workouts he'd do.

From the corner of the gym where the BIG men train, Through a cloud of chalk and the midst of pain Where the big iron rides high and threatens lives, Where the noise is made with big forty-fives, A deep voice bellowed as he wrapped his knees, A very big man with legs like trees. Laughing as he snatched another plate from the stack Chalking his hands and monstrous back, said, "Boy, stop lying and don't say you've forgotten, The trouble with you is you ain't been SQUATTIN'."
-- DALE CLARK, 1983

A great quiz over on the The Morning News takes the lyrics from classic rock songs and rearranges them in alphabetical order. Some are pretty easy (there just aren't that many rock songs that actually have the word "Scaramouch" in the lyrics), but other will annoy over coffee.

I really have a procrastination problem.

lastsupper.jpg

Ever since I posted a story about the last Sopranos episode, and an article that described in detail why Tony was definitely dead, I've wanted to post a collection of pop culture Last Supper images. See, the image to the left was from the show, and this article claimed it was a reference to that painting. I thought that was pretty cool,and it made me think of all the other Last Supper images I've seen.

Well, long story short...someone beat me too it. Which is just as well because they have a bunch I didn't even know about. So, take a look, and enjoy. (Via Neatorama)

PS: They missed one.

It swings both ways

fnf-kilmeade.jpg

You may have read my recent post about the squabble going on at Fox & Friends. My opinion of Fox News generally wavers between indifference and outright disgust, so I obviously took some satisfaction in posting the clip. It's what I do.

But I like to be fair, and when I recently kept seeing different news organizations and websites (especially left-leaning ones) posting another clip from that show because one of the anchors "stormed off" the set, I decided to take a look. And all I have to say is: hey dumbasses...the guy was obviously joking, The other anchor said "What if I called you a typical sportsguy, and he did the comedic storm off the set thing. You all can't be this retarded, can you? When you take swipes at the opposition (which I'm totally ok with) but you're too stupid to know what you're actually seeing, you don't do the cause any good. I mean...I'm really, really dumb, and even I knew what he was doing.

On a related subject, this reminds me of the guys on MSNBC not being able to figure out that the SNL Hillary sketch they were watching was really a dig at Hillary and not Obama. Chris Matthews even had the SNL writer on his show, and when he told Chris they were actually poking fun at Hillary's 3:00am spot, Chris just looked back at him with a deer in the headlights look.

And we want the candidates to speak to us like adults? How would the pundits know which side they're on?
